I have been using kaspersky antivirus since 2005, up until this year (2025).
This year i bought kaspersky standard, as there is no longer the AV version available.
Tonight, by chancem i had no idea, i noticed my fans in my PC were a bit loud and i was thinking why.
Then i have noticed a 30% load on my GPU and i see Kaspersky Standard up there and idk why is this happening.
Because with KAV (kaspersky antivirus) all these years it was ok and now with KS (kaspersky standard) i see this load on the GPU.
Actually Kaspersky Standard uses 17-20% and Desktop Window Manager 10%.
What's even more interesting, is that, with the protection off, the usage remains the same 🙂
It is only after i Exit the KS entirely, the GPU load drops to 0-2%, this % is how i know my GPU was on Idle.

GPU - Asus TUF 4080 Super
CPU - Ryzen9 7900
DDR - 32GB

Something is wrong in how the KS is working as opposed to the older KAV.
Now i'm thinking to buy whatever KAV i can find on the market, even tho' i just recently bought a 1y for 5 PC license.

I attached a screenshot to compare KS ON vs KS Exit (program closed entirely.)
