  1. Will abnormal GPU usage hurt my GPU?


    Hi there,yes, the question would seem to answer itself, but let me elaborate.For the past few month, ive been seeing odd spikes in GPU clock + usage with desktop programs that have never needed so much juice in the past, including:*Autocad*Revit*Adobe Premier Pro*Adobe Indesign but only when typing textBasically, the GPU suddenly seems to treat using these programs as though they were games. If i just run the mouse over an empty Revit file, the GPU clock shoots up to load levels and the usage spikes to 70-80%.Strangest things is that in other just as 3D intense programs like 3DS Max or Sketc

    :)

  3. 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

    Hi Michael

    Open Device Manager (accessible by right clicking your Start Button)

    Expand the Display Adapters section

    You should see your GPU listed, along with possibly an integrated graphics option

    If that is no listed there:

    Boot into BIOS (start your system, then on the manufacturers screen, repeatedly press the appropriate key (usually F2) to enter BIOS

    Under System Information, you should find your GPU listed

    If you still cannot find the GPU listing, what is the Make and exact Model No. of your PC - that will be printed on a sticker on the bottom casing . ..
