is it causing issue?
cpu might be in power saving mode

check cpu temp?
ram/hdd usage?
try another mouse?

cpu temp on 60 Celcius
ram usage on 40% and HDD1%
I had another gaming mouse (Brand from China) when I tested it,the Cpu usage is low (around 5-9%).But I don't want to use that mouse bcuz not accurate than my Logitech G203

60c on idle is high
could be like driver issue or hardware.

If your temps are high, it could be thermal throttling, however, that is abnormally high usage for explorer on idle with that CPU. Can you reinstall the drivers and let us know if that helps? It would be also nice to have a look at your task manager, sorted by CPU usage.

Why on earth there are such hilarious useless replies, it's definitely NOT CPU temp or "power saving mode". Why on earth power saving mode cause lagging?!

This is simply a terrible Windows problem that happen recently – my PC has the same problem since early 2019.
In my case (24GB ram, 4-core CPU), open some specific websites that contains videos, the mouse suddenly become very lagging (for 10 seconds, then come back to normal, so annoying) - CPU percentage go too high.
Which eat CPU? Surprisingly, it's Windows Explorer. It's really weird and no-one has a solution so far.

While I understand your point and the issue, that is no reason for being insulting of those who have tried to assist the person who started the thread.
