So I recently bought a GTX 750 ti to pair with my cpu AMD-A8-5500 because they are both low power and dont really need to upgrade anything else. But now I get very low GPU usage for example in GTA V I get about 40% usage on my GPU while CPU is at 100% I know my cpu is a somewhat bottleneck but this is very severe. I also tried tf2 and I get about 15% gpu usage and low cpu usage. My integrated card never had this problem before anyone help me out?

I'm looking more towards CPU usage. TF2 is online correct? because online games tend to be more CPU intensive which would make sense why less of it is being used in that game... I'd also be willing to bet when you go into heavily populated areas of GTAV your GPU usage goes down then too. It is just a CPU bottleneck is all, a quite severe one I may add. But it really shouldn't be that severe.

That is what I am thinking it shouldn't be that bad but it is really bad. In Metro 2033 I have decent fps and gpu usage is very good.
