Your GPU and CPU are barely active, using very little power. You're getting only about 6 frames per second.

I play on my 1660 and 2600 machines and they run at around 6 frames per second. After opening MSI afterburner, I noticed utilization stays between 0 and 1% for both. I reset the MSI afterburner, updated chipset and graphics drivers, and checked Task Manager—still nothing unusual except low FPS and utilization spikes during heavy tasks like Blender or games. Even Minecraft title screen runs at 6 fps. Any advice would be appreciated.
Both choices are highly problematic. If OP misconfigures the BIOS flash, it might damage his motherboard, and option B limits GPU resizing capabilities. These solutions won't resolve your issue and could worsen things if you're unlucky.
I'm gaming COD, Minecraft, and Battlefield 2. I'm attempting to adjust settings but haven't figured it out yet—MSI Afterburner is already active, and it didn't make a difference. I'll look into the BIOS and try a few tweaks. I'll also check the resize bar, only using it as a final option.
