Battlefield 5 Low GPU usage

Hello every1!

Wellp, i have this ''problem'' which just happens with Battlefield 5 and Battlefield 1 which is Low GPU usage, i literally tried EVERYTHING i could, from in game settings to windows 10 settings to GPU tweaking, literally everything i could. I hardly think its due to Bottleneck or something like that.

GPU usage at 1080p is around 50% - FPS from 100 to 140

GPU usage at 1080p with resolution scale at 138% (''Equivalent to 1440p'') goes around 65% - FPS from 100 to 140

But in the case of resolution scale at 180% or more GPU usage cranks up to 90-100% which i consider normal in every case. - FPS from 90 - 110

As you can see FPS are completely fine but i actully want the maximum performance my sistem can handle, since, looking at multiple benchmarks from videos and forums i sure know my system can do much more than that. I also tried benchmarks to check temperature or possible PSU problem but everythink worked absolutely fine in terms of Temps, clocks, usageand wattage. Also tried instalation on different disk's and SSD, with clean windows installs.

My system specs:

- Gigabyte RTX 3070Ti OC 8GB

- Intel I5-10600k 6cores/12threads at 4.2ghz Base with 4.8ghz at boost. 4.5ghz all cores and threads.

- MSI Z490-A PRO Motherboard

- Kingston HyperX Fury 2400mhz 2x8 RAM (16 total in Dual-Channel)

If any1 else had the same problem and managed to fix it or AT LEAST know actually WHY this happens i really would apreciate a response, thank you for reading!

I really hope they adress this kind of problems for Battlefield 2042...

    @GonpachiroSan What does your CPU usage look like in those low GPU usage scenarios?
    Also, the Future Frame Rendering setting is known to result in low usages and low FPS when it's turned off.

    @Marshennn CPU usage is about between 70% and 90%.
    Also tried both settings on Future Frame Rendering, made no diference on GPU Usage, alsto tried that setting between 1-4 on the nVidia Control panel.

    @Marshennn I also realized that the GPU Power use % is the same as the GPU Usage %, does it mean that somehow theres a limitation somwhere or something that is caping that? I made sure on windows settings and nvidia control panel that everything is on Maximum performance modes. Also if i play Cyberpunk for example GPU usage and everything else is absolutely normal.

    @GonpachiroSan You could try increasing the temp and power limit via Afterburner but I'm not sure that'd help in this case. Something else you could try is just reinstalling the game and/or resetting the in-game settings by deleting the 'Battlefield V' folder from Documents.
    Just keep a backup of that folder before you delete it however since it will reset all the settings and keybinds.
