I started Folding for a week. COVID19 has to be stopped.
My GPU Usage during f@h is only around 45 to 48% in Task-Manager. Folding Power is full.
Is this normal? No 100% Usage as my CPU?
Usage Problem RTX2070

Re: Usage Problem RTX2070
To see the actual usage of your GPU in Task Manager you will probably need to change what you are looking at. You may need to look at CUDA under Compute if you have a nVidia card, or one of the different Coumpute numbers available.
GPU-Z is an often recommended tool for seeing how a GPU is being utilized for compute functions such as folding.

Re: Usage Problem RTX2070
The number of atoms in a simulation varies with the project number. It has been noted that the smaller proteins don't use 100% of the resources on the powerful GPUs (ones with lots of shaders and/or a GFLOPS rating that's advertised as high. We try to assign small proteins to smaller GPUs and leave the bigger proteins for the bigger SPUs but we don't always succeed. If you run into that situation, let us know.

Re: Usage Problem RTX2070
Hi, I have the same GPU.
Just click on the GPU task in FAHControl, and then it will show your PPD.
This is typically between 1-1.4 million for my RTX2070. If you have the same number then it should be okay.
(but this ppd number is reduced if you pause the folding)
