Product: HP Pavilion Gaming - 15-ec0013dx

I’ve had this laptop for a long time. I’ve always used the AMD Radeon Vega 8 (gpu) and the AMD Ryzen 5 3550H. I assumed that the Nvidia 1050 in here was also running. However, when gaming, I realized my laptop never really exceeded 62°C. My laptop should be pushing 70° for those extra frames, but it does not. This leads me to believe that my laptop is using my cpu for gaming rather than my nvidia card. I have set my nvidia for performance over quality and this hasn’t changed anything. Please help.

It does NOT have Nvidia 1050 GPU.
