premiere pro not using my gpu and using 100% cpu

Are you editing H.264? Nvenc cannot decode all variations of H.264 leaving that to the CPU. Your system might be just fine. 

PrPro is CPU-centric, and that's where the encoding is based. For general timeline effects, it uses the GPU heavily for certain things like Lumetri/color/Warp and the other things on the GPU accelerated list. For general clips with no effects, it may not use the GPU much at all.

As far as codec specific, like say H.264 work, that can depend on which CPU you have as some have more in-chip capabilities for H.264, some port much of it out to GPUs if there's one available. And some GPUs have much more H.264 capabilities than others.

So puzzling out for a specific computer & project can be ... complicated.

Hi Mohommed,

Is Hardware Encoding enabled in the Export Settings dialog box? Give us a screenshot and we may be able to help.

Thanks,
