I tried this game off a friend's library via family sharing, and I have the same problem too. My PC should be able to max this game, but it's barely using my GPU.

RTX2060
i7-9700k
32GB DDR4RAM
NVME

I have an RTX 2080Ti and an i9 something or whatever (it came in a blue hexagonal plastic box thing) and the CPU is fine but it really hits my GPU something fierce, making the fans constantly spin hard to keep it cool while maintaining max settings at 165fps at 2K resolution. Well not even max settings since I disabled AA, DoF and motion blur and put shadows on low since I don't care about those, etc.

It all stopped when I went down to 1920x1080p though, for what it's worth. Guess 2560x1440p was just a little too much for it.

Temperatures never went over 85 degrees though, which I think is the "danger zone" for hardware. Hardware being at 30-50 degrees is fine, they have to get hot to work or whatever, right? It's when they go really high that you need to worry.

No clue about how much % of a CPU games are supposed to use normally though, sorry.

Yes, the game is heavy on CPU but doesn't use much GPU.
