Hello everyone,
I've tried a lot of softwares for mining altcoins like unmineable phoenixminer, minergate etc..
But all those tools use my gpu at 100% and i want to configure to use like 60% only and the rest to be able to work or play something.
I hope you understand what i mean.
Thank you in advance!

What video card do you have?
For example, on the GeForce GTX 1060, you can play many games, for example, Fallout 2. You need to limit the maximum FPS of the video card. You will get the result: minus 3-4 Mh
If you have a more powerful video card, then you can play more modern games.
There are many tests on the Internet, I sometimes play myself, but not modern games. Therefore, there is practically no reduction in hashrate.

You ought to decide what do you want - to mine, or to play games. I think that you are playing not all the time, so just stop miner when playing. Now profit is not really huge, so just stop your 1 GPU mining to play.

Turn the miner off while you game. Your GPU should be running at 100% while mining, there's no room for adding gaming at the same time. The best option is to let it mine and read a book on investment strategies instead of spending that time gaming, there's plenty of time for gaming after you retire early, you'll thank me later.

Mining and gaming at the same time , not the best option at all . Really depend on what kind of games we are talking about )
If you set up your computer on the right way , then you can use it for every day task ( general work) at the same time , when the gpu running on 100%. That's cant be a issue.
You forget to mention what kind of "work" you wanted to do during mining. Writing HTML code or rendering video , working 3D modelling is not the same kind of " work"
You asking for help , but missed the most important information's from your questions

PC hardware
What kind of work do you want to do during mining
What kind of game do you want to play during mining ( chess ? Pac Man ? Assassin's Creed ? , Halo Infinite ? )
