I have just installed Stud.io on my gaming PC in the hope to render some designs
there.

i7-4790k
GTX970 x2
Windows 10
Stud.io Version 2.2.2 (1)

Now having the startup window, the Stud.io process idles at 32% CPU
If I have a design open, it runs at 85% CPU
The interface is very laggy (5fps)

Why is that? I have not found any similar issues searching online.

Furthermore, the rendering window does not detect a GPU at all.

Have you tried lowering the quality under Edit - Preferences - Appearance?

For reference I have a laptop with a i5-10310 and without a design open mine
sits around 3% at idle and actively working on a design it rarely goes above
10% and no lag at all. In the grand scheme of computers/technology a 4th gen
processor and 970 video card are relatively old.

You also might want to ask on the Studio forum, probably get a better answer:
