My gpu is being used like 40-50% and my game runs fine 60 fps and im on a 3440x1440p monitor

Didnt fix :/

yeah the only fix is playing at a higher resolution...or accepting that playing at 1080p will result in your cpu being the bottleneck 100% of the time! Really, anything below 3440 x 1440p will not have above 90% gpu usage

I've tried this and I'm still getting less than 60% utilization on my GTX1080 at 1080p high settings, but around 45 fps avg.
