Hello, I noticed recently that my gpu usage has been stuck between 60% through 67% with my current less than 20% on any given game even down to 3D Mark. What could be causing this?

 

My current specs are as follow:

Gpu Nvidia RTX 3070

Cpu AMD Ryzen 9 5900x

32 gb Trident Royal Ram 

Motherboard ROG Strix B550 I Gaming

What are your cpu numbers?  If they’re high it could be background apps eating cpu cycles, or thermal throttle.  if they’re low it could be a suite of other mostly different problems.  You’ve got enough cpu to drive the gpu to 100% so I don’t think there’s a bottleneck there.  I think very possibly something is up somewhere.  It could even be a game setting.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.
