    WHY AM I GETTING 0 WATTS OF GPU POWER


    Recently I upgraded to the rtx 4060 and when using geforce experience to check my performance it says gpu power 0 watts. At the same time my fps in games dropped pretty bad. Is the voltage the problem or is it something else.

    :)

    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

    WHY AM I GETTING 0 WATTS OF GPU POWER

    i7 7700 CPU power supply Watts

    It depends what you also have in the computer. The most important being a graphics card, they can consume great amounts of power while on heavy loads.

    But if you're not getting a graphics card, and relying on the CPU for graphics output, I personally think you'd be just fine with 350 watts. There is a lot of factors that play into that determination. But your 7700 isn't exactly a high end CPU that consumes crazy amounts of power.

    As a general rule with any PC build in the last 10 years. I always get at least 500 watts of power for non-graphic card builds. For gamer computer builds 600-750 watts depending on the graphics card.

    The reason is because the cost of a 350 to 500 watt power supply are generally the same, there is always a 500 watt power supply from a reputable company on sale that would cost the same was a 350 watt. So why not get something a little bigger.
