So ill just cut to the chase ... I dont get the fps that i expected with my gtx 1080 asus strix. Im not sure why my cpu gets to 99% on most of the games i play and my gpu stays under 50% usage. I get around 50-70fps on PUBG and if i get lucky i get 80-100fps for a min, but i drop frames from time to time - 40fps at lowest. I have everything low but textures and i have v-sync off and have my power management to prefer maximum performance. Not sure if my i5-6500 bottlenecks my gpu or my msi bios settings are wrong. (Drivers and bios up-to-date)

SPECS :
MSI Gaming Intel Skylake H110 LGA 1151 DDR4 USB 3.1 Micro ATX Motherboard (H110M Gaming)
Intel Core i5 6500 3.20 GHz Quad Core Skylake Desktop Processor
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 DRAM 2400MHz C16 Memory Kit, Black
ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 8GB ROG STRIX Graphics Card (STRIX-GTX1080-A8G-GAMING)
 
Solution
Maybe your proccesor it's doing a bit of bottleneck, tell me your temps just in case there's thermal throttling, and also try to reset the bios to the defaults and try, and if you can take a pic of your cpu usage while gaming
