Interesting, I wonder if this has something to do with the DX12 exclusive fullscreen. If you have time I would appreciate if you could try with DX12 again but this time with game in window mode and in borderless fullscreen and let me know the results.
Also you said you have 3 monitors. On which one was the game and on which one the trainer? And does it have any effect if you have both on the same monitor vs both on different monitors?

DX12:
Window mode - GPU usage 17-18% and same if I tab out.
Borderless - GPU usage 40% when having game selected. 18% when clicking on another monitor
Game was on main monitor which is the middle of three and number 1 in my config. Trainer was on right side which is number 2 in config.
If I move the AIO/trainer behind the game on main.
On DX12 window gpu usage goes up to 37-40%
and borderless gpu usage 65%
Fullscreen dx12 gpu usage 65%

Hi.
So I been trying to troubleshoot this myself, with some help from Nook and Sniper, for a good few hours now without finding a permanent fix.
Whenever I run Dying Light 2 and a trainer, regardless of it being on the AIO, trainer manager or standalone. It uses 50% GPU when active on main menu and 70-75% while in game. This in turn freezes my computer up when trying to anything outside of the game.
Tried disabling GSYNC - No change
Deleted my AV completely - No change
Disabled most programs running - No change
Reinstalled and changed GPU drivers - No change
Tried only have 1 monitor plugged - No change
Tried lowering all setting in-game - No change
The only way I have found to fix it is to minimize the AIO or trainer down to tray. Then all PC functions go back to normal and GPU usage drops to next to nothing.
GPU is 3070 and I have 3 similar monitors
Note to add. This seems to only happen with Dying Light 2. I tested a few other games to compare. God of War the AIO or trainer runs at 3.6% GPU usage and barely moves up and down.
Any help to understand this would be greatly appreciated

I am also experiencing this for Dying Light 2 with the trainer active regardless of format. When I alt-tab out of the game my entire pc runs unbearably slow
My GPU is a 3080 with 2 monitors.
I followed the same tips posted here and still having the issue.

Hello, this is also happening to me iin my game. on 3090. with trainer game is almost unplayable, without works fine.
the RTX on DX12 in this game is a hog, turn it off on DX12, its why DX11 runs so much better --- no RTC on DX11
--my two cents. i cannot use trainer in game du to this at this time.
It would be more helpful if you would post more information about your system and setup so we can identify what those of you have in common. Also please answer my question about standalone trainer or Aurora
I have an Alienware Aurora R12 3080 32GB Ram. I am using Aurora currently but it was doing the same thing with standalone trainer via CH Trainer Manager. I did switch to DX11 and that seemed to help alot as far as doing things on my PC while the game and trainer are running. The game isnt unplayable for me while running the highest settings, its just very slow doing anything else on the PC while they run.

Since you mention Alienware, do you have a process / service running called Nahimic or Alienware Sound Center? If yes please shut them down and try again. They are known to cause issues to WPF applications. Usually just graphic glitches but who knows...
