No internet connection in other applications?

When I'm in my game, apps and other things on my second screen barely have Wi-Fi. Discord streams freeze, and TV shows won't even load properly. I recently reset my PC, and it's been like this ever since. How do I get it working again so I can watch TV shows/streams on my second screen while playing GTA?

Hey Buffikorn, open on the second monitor before, for example, GTA starts, the task manager (right click on task bar, open task manager), and then go to the performance tab and select the GPU. After that you open a stream or video, keep the task manager visible over the video, start GTA and see if something (usually 3D or Video Encode / Decode) goes to 100%. If anything goes up to 100%, you can try to put down the graphics or reduce the video / stream quality.

This is often not the Internet, but mainly the CPU or GPU. Got the same problem when I play Beamng. There you can’t do much because if a game requires too much performance, it will be prioritized.

Games usually do not require much internet, so you can exclude it.
