Games only using 1% of my GPU power

[Tastymond]

Is this normal? it's using 60% cpu power and 1% of GPU from my 1080.

MHW is HEAVILY reliant on CPU due to the game sill using MT Framework

Is a laptop this can happen when game is defualt to intel integrated graphics mean the game not use your GTX1060. You may be see low fps because. Can be fix by switch in Nvidia CP.

Form what I tell by youtube it should be max at 100% so going to say nope it not normal to be at 1%.

I mean It's only using 1% this can't be right can it? My control panel does have it set to run from 1080 as far as I can see.

What resolution and graphic setting?
Also what FPS count is it high or low?
It still don't seem right to me however very impressive if give you high frame rate just mean less waer and tear on your GPU.

GPU load is around 0% when minimizing a full screen application...

I get 60fps fine with max settings I'm just worried because It says it's not using my 1080 according to the task manager.

Laptop?

Checked your control panel to make sure it's using dedicated gpu?

Tried to make a profile and set the maximum performance option?

Checked your windows power plan and put that to maximum?

Put the game on high priority in task manager?

I didnt minimize anything dude Ive just checked this with other games to see if I'm missing something obvious here and they are using my gpu fine.

Try msi afterburner overlay see what it shows on your GPU usage.

Hey cheers so msi afterburner says It's using 53% of the card, for some weird reason task manager says zero but that's my worry gone.
