You're experiencing typical performance behavior with your current setup. Running Shadow of Tomb Raider shows the CPU reaching full capacity while the GPU stays relatively idle, which is common when the GPU can keep up but the CPU is still handling most tasks. The 6% GPU usage in Fraps suggests the GPU is working hard, but the high CPU load indicates it's managing the workload well. Upgrading in the future should help balance the bottleneck.

Several titles fail to accurately display GPU activity within the Task Manager.

I wasn't aware of that, thank you. The numbers seem reasonable at 100% and 50%.

It seems the system is underperforming compared to what the 2060 offers due to a slower CPU.

I understand, I just purchased the GPU/PSU to prepare for upgrading my CPU/RAM/MB. Performance in games is still solid.
