Hi @orhan22 you should check this information via nVidia Control Panel application instead of using any other software. Your screenshot is already showing the tooltip message that during power saving / eco mode, the reported information could be different. Basically your computer really needs to use/demand GPU resources for the GPU to be utilized. This is why I am suggesting that you check the information in the nVidia Control Panel application.
