    [Solved] GPU usage dropping to 0%

    After totally wiping and reinstalling windows it now works!
    MY Steps:
    1. Format HDD and during setup choose the option to not allow windows to install updates/drivers.
    DO NOT LET WINDOWS AUTO UPDATE
    2. Create Restore point. (Fallback)
    3. Install Chipset Drivers (Since you predownloaded them)
    4. Install network driver
    5. Install your GPU driver
    6. Install DX11 (Or Whatever)
    7. Install whatever game you are playing (BF3) Let it install whatever it needs to to run. (Net Framework etc.)
    8. Run bf3 campaign or multiplayer.
    9. Be amazed.
    10. Create a restore point. (Fallback)
    11. Update windows.
    12. Breathe a sigh of relief.
    13. Install whatever you need to.




    I have this issue that whenever i play a graphic intensive game my GPU usage drops to 0-10% every so often. I have no idea what to do. I've already moved it to a different slot, tried different cables, overclocking, underclocking. Everything... Can someone help?

    MOBO: Asus Z87-Deluxe
    CPU: Intel i5 4670k
    GPU: MSI GTX 660TI PE
    RAM: G.Skill Ripjaw 4GB x2

    when your pc freezes so hard your gpu usage drops below 0%

    GPU at 0% all the time Windows 10

    My GPU always stays at 0% usage

    I have Windows 10 64-bit, and these are my specs:

    • Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU
    • 4096 RAM
    • NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS
      • Driver version: 342.01
    My GPU usage is always at 0% usage, when I play games such as Valorant and also when I don't. For instance, when I'm playing my RAM is at 70%, the CPU at 50-60%, and the GPU at 0%. This problem is driving me crazy and I would really appreciate some help.
    Thanks
