Title. Ask me for more information if needed. Specs: [url]http://i.imgur.com/OXV1QYj.png[/url] [url]http://i.imgur.com/XjT1v3F.gifv[/url] [url]http://i.imgur.com/suqXbJE.gifv[/url] [url]http://i.imgur.com/IEq6WiF.png[/url]
I'm assuming you don't have it to software rendering. Does gmod even allow for software rendering anymore?

Was your GMod in the main menu when you took those specs? [editline]20th June 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Japanese Jinx;50556358]since rust uses 990MHz[/QUOTE] ???

What exactly is the problem here, if you are even having any problems? Just saying that it is using 0% GPU is not going to help.
if you have vsync enabled its not gonna use more then it needs to render 60 frames and gmod is old so it doesn't need much
EVERYBODY! Dont post "Disable VSync" Im not that dumb.

GMOD is the problem, not my computer.
Try disabling VSync and see if that helps.
Is it rendering at a consistent 60 fps or above? Your GPU is very powerful compared to what Gmod actually needs, so it shouldn't be surprising if it uses very little of what your GPU can do. Rust is a much newer game and also poorly optimized; it's an irrelevant comparison.

Just came to realise that AMD Doesnt support DX9 anymore. THats the reason.

so what's the problem, are you getting bad framerates? you never answered that question.
[QUOTE=Japanese Jinx;50616049]How can I fix this problem then?[/QUOTE] I didn't mention a problem; I asked a question. I don't know what the problem is because you didn't answer the question. Are you getting framerates that are under 60 frames per second?

From what I see, they're not supporting their old DX9 graphics cards with new drivers anymore, which is to be expected. Games using DX9 should still be rendered on the GPU like normal.
I'm pretty sure the source engine is far more CPU based than GPU. No source to back that up, just generally what I've heard. Also I hate to beat a dead horse, but what exactly is wrong if you are getting full performance without interruptions?

[editline]5th July 2016[/editline] Your previous posts say otherwise.[/QUOTE] Please then first tell me what information do you need :^) "Your previous posts say otherwise." I said I get under 60, but sometimes over 60 depending on the map.
I could probably figure it out but if you're gonna be an ass then nah.
[QUOTE='[EG] Pepper;50652024']I could probably figure it out but if you're gonna be an ass then nah.[/QUOTE] You got instantly triggered, tho it was quite obvious that you should tell me the details before whining about "Give more detail."
I was responding to somebody else with that DX9 comment ya dipshit; it had literally nothing to do with you. We had to ask multiple times just to find out you were getting under 60fps, so fuck off with your attitude. Install Source SDK Base 2007 or whatever it is from the tools menu of Steam. Run it and change all the settings to max, then do the performance test. It might shed light on whether this is a Source-engine problem or a Gmod-specific problem. And again, fuck off with that attitude.
Nah it looks like GMOD is using your GPU from your image. Also how the hell do you live with constant 100% fan usage?
