0% usage with 1050ti

[dontdisobeyy]

spec:
i3-7100
GTX 1050ti
Intel(R) HD Graphics 630

I just got my new PC today and was excited to play games again. However i loaded csgo noticing extremely low fps (20-30). I used the HWmonitor software and found out that my nvidia gpu was on 0% usage while my other components such as the cpu were on 90%+. The things i have tried are uninstalling and re-installing the nvidia drivers multiple time (both express and clean installation), and still no usage on the gpu.

Hope anyone can help as I cant find solutions on the internet.

Sounds like you plugged your monitor into the motherboard and not the GPU.

Theres no HDMI port on my monitor so should I used DVI instead of VGA?

Yes. And plug into the GPU portion, not the motherboard.
