That really depends on what you're doing and no there isn't a "best" low or high. You shouldn't look at is as good or bad but just as a value of work load. Typically the lower the work load the better but again, that depends on the task.
What CPU do you have and what are you doing that is causing you to question the usage?

Well I have i5 3350p, and wanted to know how much cpu usage it will be because if its too high it means that cpu is bottlenecking

That's not necessarily how bottlenecking works. The definition of bottlenecking has a few different meanings, depending on how you ask, but to me it's when one component prevents another component from being utilized fully. The i5 3350p will not bottleneck a 960 GTX at all. If you have high CPU usage, it's more based on the application not necessarily the GPU's need for a stronger CPU.
What you need to understand from the previous poster's statements is there is a difference in hardware performance based on architecture (CPU), cores (CPU), VRAM (GPU), cores (GPU), and resolutions. You have a quad core Intel. There aren't many games that require more than that.
