Just wondering, are live wallpapers demanding and will it affect the FPS of my games?

I will say that I had a program on windows 10 (when I had 10) that was called live wallpapers from the windows store and it did draw power from cpu and gpu in the background. It wasn't really alot and for me didn't make that much of a difference but maybe a few frames for cod.

It might have some sort of effect with drawing a little power from your cpu/gpu but I guess that would be dependent on the Live Photo being displayed.. even if it does I highly doubt it would be anything noticeable whilst playing and if it does become noticeable just change the playback options to pause all while your doing stuff

wallpaper engine has settings to pause automatically when you open a game

imgur wrote wallpaper engine has settings to pause automatically when you open a game


Might have to enable this in settings but seems to be the general consensus

I use wallpaper engine and haven't noticed too much of my power going to it.. granted I also have a Ryzen 9950x and 4080 super so yeah lol.. but I don't think they are too demanding but I could totally be wrong
