two weeks ago I've bought a 2nd GPU for better performance while working and rendering. Only I notice now that the GPU is not 100% utilized while rendering, but more ~50-70%. I don't know if this is normal or anything but it seems strange to me. But I'm not a genius in these kinda things.
Here you can see the Statistics inside MSI Afterburner. http://puu.sh/m2BSM/581c4b4738.png
My first GPU (GTX 770) is used for powering my screens and is switched on for rendering around the time I go to sleep. The GPU (GTX 980) that I just bought is always rendering. I'm using OctaneforC4D 2.24.0 R1.

If you guys need anymore information please let me know! And in advance a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Greetings,

I'm assuming you've got it set at high priority, or have priority use unchecked?
