Are you sure that you measure 3d utilization of GPU?
Try set big value of Camera AA (50) for long render and check utilization.

Don't use the Task Manager,  use GPU-Z

Also, check the Arnold log (set the verbosity to Info)

Thank you everyone for replying! After re-installing 3DS Max and MaxtoA it is now correctly utilizing my GPU.
