Why not take advantage of your video card's performance?

Only 40-50% of the video card is useful but I would like to go 100%
in task manager by 40-50% between bounce and video card utilization.
somehow it could be done so that not only 40-50% use it there?
gtx 1050ti
i5 7400
16g ram
windows10

I guess you are looking at your task manager … you need to click on the drop down arrow next to one of the charts titles and try the different options … can't remember what t is called but one of them will show you the actual (100%) usage.

Given the way OSs manage GPU workloads it is actually hard not to use 100% when running FAH !!

Task Manager does not by default show the true utilisation.

Open Task Manager, select Performance, select the GPU from the left side, On any of the graphs that appear click the little down arrow above and to the right of the graph, Select Cuda.

Alternatively, download GPU-Z and look at Sensors or MSI AfterBurner and look there.

Cuda for Nvidia cards and I think it was Compute_0 for AMD, if not 0 then one of the Compute stats
