If so -> check if all the BIOS settings are still correct. Did you personally change anything in the BIOS lately? Let's not freak out and go for possibility number one first. A software limit probably caused by the BIOS, OS, a driver or energy saving software. There are two things that can limit the usage of your GPU:ġ. So as long you did not change the GPU or the power supply of your laptop, there should not be any physical limit. When a Laptop is designed, all components that have to deliver power are made so that the GPU en CPU of choice get enough power. The 970m is being used, I am certain it just is not boosting all the way, temps are also fine, but how does the power limit work on laptops? Is there a way to change it? Do you think the problem is software related, or worse hardware related? Sadly I cannot say 'yes this is your problem' and the only way I have seen people fix that problem is by reinstalling the OS, not something that is a quick fix. Several Youtube channels and even a friend of mine complain of terrible GPU utilization after the Creators update was installed. What I do know is that if you are running Windows 10 and have installed the latest Creators update, the OS might be the problem. Yes, it is a plausible explanation but how are you so certain? The other assumption is that it is the power limit that is causing the GPU.

So question number one is: Is it actually using the 970M GPU or is it still using the dedicated one. Usually, NVDIVIA laptops with Intel CPU are being able to use the build in GPU of the CPU and the dedicated GPU.
