I own a Ryzen 5 5600G processor along with an AMD RX 6600 featuring 8GB and 32GB of RAM at 3600MHz. On most games, my CPU usage stays between 4% to 10%, while my GPU runs at full capacity. Titles like Starfield, Call of Duty, and Doom provide solid performance, but I’m puzzled by the low CPU utilization.

Did you check if your GPU is limiting the performance of your CPU?

If the GPU usage reaches 100%, it clearly indicates full utilization.

It means the GPU is managing the CPU's workload, which is ideal for gaming. You want the GPU to stay ahead of the CPU, not wait behind it.

It should ideally run between 40 to 50 percent on the CPU.

It depends on how the CPU is allocated. With 6 cores and 12 threads, but only needing 1 core and 2 threads, it won't fully utilize the processor. It's similar to a highway with 12 lanes where all cars move at the same speed—no need to change lanes. This explanation was updated on December 11, 2023 by podkall.
