    It's using my GPU fully it's up around 90% and beamng is veryslow.
    I am running
    GeForce Driver Version 430.53
    I have a super computer and still it's lagging right after the update.
    Can anyone help?

    GPU usage does not indicate if the game should be running fast or slow.
    10%, 90%, 100% usage does not indicate if you should be getting 20, 30 or 60FPS.
    That depends from the actual hardware performance.

    Please provide the full specs of your PC.
    Then, does this happen on some specific level?
    What settings and resolution are you playing at?

    If I need no lag and make the game fast again. I need to turn shadows off set the graphics to low
    that's the only way to make the lag dissapear
    Before the update I could run the game on higest graphics and with shadows

    You are missing the GPU in the screenshot above.
    Also answer the other questions please:

    Does this happen on some specific level?
    What settings and resolution are you playing at?

    He wants to know which map you did play, also it might be useful to mention which car, so it is easier to know what kind of stress game is putting on hardware and also easier to check if there is some issue with map or car causing this different behavior you are experiencing.

    Ooh.. okay
    It's in any map and with any car it's lagging/is slow.
    But ingame it's saying something about wrong GPU and I need to change it. I don't know how

    Puzzling, maybe Nvidia control panel has changed so that option is now some other place.

    Not sure if @Nadeox1 would have better ideas

    Can you please take a screenshot of this 'Wrong GPU' message you are getting?
    Also go to Help > Performance menu in-game, take a screenshot and post it here too.

    According to internet, you would need to clean reinstall your GPU drivers using DDU:

    If that's not a laptop, then it should not be happening.

    Stupid but worth a check:
    Is your monitor connected to the right port on your PC?
    In particular, is it actually connected to your GTX 1060 video outputs? And not to your motherboard video output (that one will use the Intel Graphics)

    It's not a laptop.

    I don't know why this is happening

    What Nadeox1 tells is only way that I can think of this issue being possible.

    This is back of your computer tower, cable should go from connector from green are to your monitor, not from light blue area to monitor, can you confirm that is the situation?

    That is probably your primary display, one at center?

    I wonder if switching two monitors to different connectors and setting primary monitor to be one of those connected to gtx1060 would solve the issue without creating new issues?

    The odd thing is that this potentially means that so far your games have not been running on the GTX1060, but the Intel Card till now o_O (hopefully I'm wrong on that)
