My GPU is running at 100%?

I have had my GPU for over a year now, its a gtx590 and I have been using afterburner to keep an eye on it. I have never overcloced it or anything like that as I am scred of bricking it.

But recently I have seen that both processors have started running at 100%?

Temps stay mid 60s to mid 70s?

Any ideas why this might be happening?

I am playing: BF3, DOTA2 etc..

Thanks

It means you're a lucky boy. :Dacanofcoke

I don't know why you're worried...it's a good thing that your GPUs are being pushed.  :P  Lol.

You should be lucky, in BF3's MP the game's gpu usage is random for me, heck I've been seeing 20-50% usages at times.

I wish my GPUs ran at 100% a lot more haha.

Is this during game play or just when you're surfing the internet/on the desktop/doing whatever that doesn't involve 3D graphics?jcknapier711

If its going back to normal after for an example playing a demanding game then you have nothing to worry about ..you should be happy

Depends.. some games run at 100% and the performance still isn't good. Some games run at 50% and you're getting 60fps without a hitch. Depends on the results.Elann2008

In BF3 both get to 100%.. I think it might have been the latest driver update? I never really noticed the numbers before.. but then I started to see the 100% and thought something was wrong. Ill keep an eye on performance and temps and also how long it takes to drop.
