Hello guys, I need your help, I just noticed that in predatosense it shows that my GPU is on idle even though I'm playing AC Odyssey, Far Cry 5, and Battlefield 1, I'm worried because before it always shows 1700 Mhz, 90°C, 50% something like that.

Here is the photo.

    if your game are playable with good fps your gpu is working and gpu idle in predator sense is a bug. you can try to reinstall predator sense 
    for better cooling you can undervolt or use a cooler pad

    Put your laptop to sleep and wake it up; that should solve the issue of GPU not being detected by Predator Sense. Also, under windows power settings, deselect the "fast startup" option.
