Hey there,

i bought the GTX 970 with the intel i56600k and the Gibabyte H170 HD3 for my new PC. The problem is when i run GTA 5 benchmark. The GPU usage doesnt go over 60% while the CPU usage goes over 70% sometimes even 80%. When i see outher benchmarks of the same components they have like 99% GPU usage and around 60% CPU. Can anyone help me ? I have the NVIDIA power managment settings set to prefer maximum performance. By the way my monitor is 1440x900.

Its the same when i enable it and disable it on every game. Maybe its becasue my monitor is not 1080p and the GPU isnt pushed to the maximum ?
