Help Please, Laptop 4060 GPU is not being used

[MadMaxGuy]

[not sure why but after i added the marvel rivals screenshots, all the paragraphs i typed got disintegrated]

anyways

 

I'm not sure why but since 2 days ago my 4060 gpu on the laptop isnt being used for games like it used to.

On cyberpunk this is most noticeable since no ray tracing is being done even though it is on ultra.

The clearest giveaway is that ray tracing isnt being used at all on cyberpunk, as you can see on the screenshot it gets really dark on places.

 

Yes, i have tried installing the latest drivers, checking if the laptop was on eco mode [its not].

I checked nvidia control panel and settings to put cyberpunk 2077 always on the 4060.

 

The GPU is being used but its not being used properly like its used to, the 3D rendering usage is also low when im running cyberpunk. 

This wasnt like this since I bought the laptop about 4ish months ago.

What is your CPU? And have you changed any NVIDIA Optimus settings? Are you on battery or plugged in?

I am using plugged in but the battery is kept on 50-60 because of a setting. Its on performance mode

[the cpu and other stuff are now on the original post btw]

Do you have High Performance for your games set in Windows graphics settings?

[MadMaxGuy]

yep, didnt change anything tho. i even reinstalled games to see if that helped. but it didnt do anything. also, the gpu went up to 100% in a stress test, but it dont go back like 30-40% on games.
