GTX Titan Black not being put to use by workstation APPs?

Hi,

So I have a Titan Black. I planned on 3D modelling with it. My applications include: AutoCAD, AutoInventor, 3ds Max, Maya, Ansys Fluent, and many more.

However, I noticed that when I'm in Autodesk Inventor, viewport navigation lags like hell when I pan and zoom around. I checked MSI Afterburner and found that the GPU was doing barely any work, this is the same for the CPU. So what do I need to do to make Auto Inventor make use of my GPU AND CPU? The GPU doesn't even present normal clocks due to the minimal work load. In fact, it runs at around 500mhz to conserve energy. 

That being said, I game and fold@home without problems. So then, how can I make Autodesk Inventor work with Titan blacks? Or is this a GPU/firmware problem?

Check the program options and settings. If a program can take advantage of your GPU, there will be an option called 'GPU acceleration' or 'something acceleration' that you should enable.

For these programs you usually have to enable GPU accelaration or GPU compute.

I googled Autodesk Inventor GPU acceleration. It seems that Inventor has an option menu where you can choose Performance vs. Quality and hardware vs. software acceleration. It seems activated by default by the software performance is just poor in general. Using inventor on this computer seems as slow as my Lenovo X200. Is there anyway to optimise it further? There is an import button...not sure what to import though? Settings?

Calling for expert on Autodesk Inventor please!
