cpu - gpu usage monitoring

In game just use MSI Afterburner, it is still one of the most accurate and convenient one.

Outside of games just use HWInfo64.

Hello,

 

I was trying to monitor cpu usage in a game but now it turns out windows 11 messed up some programs so i'm not sure witch one i should use.

I did do a test with cinebench with 11794 points as result.

If i tab out and watch performance in task manager it says 100% cpu utilisation.

I tried MSI afterburner but it won't let me monitor in game but if i see the hardware monitor afterwards 85% 

Windows game bar shows only 4% and the same for armoury crate.

Nvida shows like 65% but causes fps drop like 15 points.

I don't know what is showing correct values so what should i use to monitor it in game?
