97%-99% GPU Usage Causing Noticeable FPS Drops

I have been having this problem recently that once my GPU hits between 97-99 usage, my frames will drop by a significant amount. I have been tweaking a lot of the settings in game, background apps, turning off whatever is not needed, nvidia control panel to reduce the gpu load with no luck in the percentage change. The most my frames will drop is when I am within a Gibby ultimate, where my frames will drop to around 70 fps. When my GPU is not within 97-99 usage, I have a constant 144 fps. I've also seen that having the GPU usage around that percentage is fine for the most part unless it is shown as a problem. Being in the menu, the usage is around 90% which I think is probably not supposed to be that high in the menu.
Does anybody have any solutions so that my GPU does not reach between 97-99%? Or possibly it is something else that I am not aware of?
