Find %age utilization for internal components?

Hi,

I work for an Engineering company and I have been wondering how powerful all our machines are. Turns out mine has 2x E5 2650 Xeons, 16gb DDR3 along side 1Gb Quadro K600.

Now I only really do basic 2D work and I have the feeling that this is far to much power for the work I am doing. Is there any way to find out how much CPU, GPU and Ram my day to day working is using so I can possibly suggest toning down the "work stations" that we buy in ...

Thanks,

Grady

OS is windows, main CAD program is Allplan. Aye, task manager is working for CPU but needed something for GPU as well, so MSI will do nicely.

You say you are only doing basic 2D Work - are any of your colleagues doing the exact same as you are?

Yeah, pretty much all the same. All the PCs seem very over powered, normally I wouldn't mind but that's money that could be going to things like coffee machines.. Or SSDs, Jesus what I would do for an SSD inside my PC.

We each have our own PC as well, so its not like we need the machines to all do everything. If I had my way, we would transplant the best parts of the PCs and stick them into the one that's doing more of the work (one of the lads does a little 3D work).
