I've tested my specs with a full stress test where the GPU ran at maximum capacity. You mentioned that during gaming, the GPU used around 50-70% while the CPU matched it closely. If the CPU usage spikes, the GPU tends to increase too. It seems there might be an issue with how the system handles load or overheating under heavy demand.

Signs of a CPU bottleneck appear when the processor reaches its limit while the GPU uses very little. This isn’t occurring here. Your comments suggest the games you’re playing don’t heavily strain your system overall.

It would help a lot to install a matching RAM stick and use dual-channel configuration.

CPU utilization per core is displayed in MSI Afterburner. RAM specifications include speed and CAS latency details.

Ram Corsair 8GB single channel 2666MHz, XMP disabled since it causes crashes when enabled. Check CPU usage per core in the attached image.

Right,I cpu Isn't maxed out so It's not actually bottlenecking.if there’s any problem with hardware don’t know how to identify it.I'm looking for some game which don't use cpu that much

This situation resembles a CPU bottleneck. The system's overall utilization is nearing 80%, with cores 2 and 3 operating near their limits. It seems the processor is continuously spinning without gaining much from memory bandwidth, while also handling heavy memory swapping. The single 2666 memory slot isn't adequate for a six-core CPU, and it appears you're nearly reaching your memory capacity—using about 7.5GB out of the available 8GB. Adding another memory stick would be highly advisable.
