My PC has been giving me problem for the past 1 month.
The CPU usage level is insanely high and constantly at 100% I have no idea what is wrong with it.
Built it two years ago... Any advice? Is the motherboard spoiled?

Suspect viruses/malware cause the high CPU usage.
BTW, your desktop got security suite and up to date in virus definition?

Check your utiliization on the CPU from your task manager to see which software component is using it. Kill it off if not critical and see if the CPU goes down. Most probably could be virus or anti-virus

High chance is a virus on the pc. Get a copy of antivirus and remove the virus.
