Default Oil gauge high reading when accelerating

Hey guys, been having an issue when i have my foot in the gas, my oil gauge goes from two notches under half, all the way up to 3/4 of the way. Nothing really feels off when driving, but this defenitly can't be good. Any ideas??

Your oil pressure is supposed to go up as you accelerate. As long as your not overfilled and you are using the correct weight oil, nothing sounds wrong to me.

@ChibiBlackSheep Oil level is good. I have just never had it shoot upp from under the half mark to almost 3/4 the way
