Huge slowdown when rendering

Hi All

I have a problem with my pc slowing down drastically when 3d rendering in Maya ie CPU 90% usuage.

I`m using a i7 2600k intel with 16gb 1600mhz dd3 ram and i`m pretty sure it never use to be as bad as it is now. I`m having to resort to putting maya into a low priority so that I can multi-task. The mouse stops for 5 secs then i can move it , then stops again.

Been trying various drivers on my system but i`m at a loss to what it could be.

Any ideas?

Thanks
 
Wouldn't this be expected behavior when a render is being performed? Of machines I've seen running renders in other tools like blender, they had the same situation. Rendering takes a lot of horsepower.
 
You should still be able to use the computer without having to put the render job on "idle" priority. The only time I ever got serious lag while rendering, it ended up being an issue of the Hard drive not being able to keep up with having to read and write to itself. Switching the file output to another drive solved the issue for me.
