hi, i recently changed my 970 to a 1070 and did a safe mode DDU clean but im getting saddly a little better perfomance and i noticed i have 30 to 40% usage in my GPU, doesnt matter the game
and i cant figure it out why.

my specs are:

Operating System
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Core i7 4790K @ 4.00GHz
RAM
16,0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. MAXIMUS VII RANGER (SOCKET 1150)
Graphics
VG248 (1920x1080@144Hz) (monitor)
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (EVGA)
Storage
1863GB Seagate ST2000DM 001-1ER164 SCSI Disk Device (SATA )
111GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO 120G SCSI Disk Device (SATA (SSD))
465GB Crucial CT500MX5 00SSD1 SCSI Disk Device (SATA (SSD))

i tested with monster hunter world and i have 10 to 15 fps in a very foggy area with low-med config
and with warframe i have 144 idle and 50 to 80 in a battle but still with 30% gpu usage both

Its not your fault, its the games faults, they must not be optimised to utilize both the GPU and CPU properly, and yes, its normal for Fortnite to have high GPU usage, it does for a lot of people.
