50% GPU usage only during gameplay and blurry textures

On the startup screen, match loading screen and lobby, the GPU appears to be used normally, with usage reaching 90%, power usage also appears normal (185w). However during gameplay, the GPU generally remains at an average of 50% and is impossible to go above 60%, power usage is around 115w, even though I tried switching from low to ultra settings.

I don't think the processor is limiting performance, in any game it can use my GPU without any problems, and if the processor was the problem, it wouldn't be able to run the GPU at 90% during the loading screen and lobby.

Even on ultra, the textures are extremely blurry and lacking in detail. When performance drops, there is a delay on the keyboard, it's as if I press "W" and it takes 1 second for the command to be activated, this only happens during intense moments of the game, or when I'm 64vs64 in a place without intensity. I'm sad because I bought this game two days ago, I gave it to myself as a birthday present, and I can't enjoy it.

I have the following hardware:

Ryzen 3900

RTX 2060 12GB

64GB DDR4

1TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus

B450M Steel Legend

XPG Core Reactor 850w

Updated nvidia Studio drivers

No thermal throttling in CPU/GPU

Things I tried:

Clean boot, with all initials disabled in task manager and MSConfig.

Force constant CPU usage at maximum performance

Disable/enable SMT

Enable power plan for maximum performance

Disable EA overlay

Disable OneDrive sync

Enable and disable DLSS, Future Frame Rendering, and REFLEX

I tried enabling and disabling DLDSR(DSR)

Vsync disabled

In user.cfg I used I'm using I already tried using 12/24, 12/12 for ProcessorCount and MaxProcessorCount respectively (my processor is 12/24).

DX12 enable and disable

Input raw disable and enable
