I've been having high CPU utilization & heat since I installed my i9, which lead me to look this up.

Kill the process first & then rename or delete "nvrla.exe" at "C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\FrameViewSDK\bin".

You might have to do this after every driver update since I wasn't able to find any entries for it through SysInternal's AutoRun.
 
Whats odd is, sometimes its fine, other times it just uses a ton of CPU, almost like it crashes... I normally kill it, but barely noticeable on a 5950x, uses like 5% when it goes crazy, like 0% when normal.
 
I reverted to an earlier Nvidia driver for now so this isn't on my system - but does anyone know what this supposed to be for?
 
Supposedly for FrameView, which I never use. Not sure why it's in the Game Ready drivers.
