GPU Bottlenecking?

wasdx3

My CPU is a Ryzen 5 2400G
and my GPU is a newly obtained Radeon RX 580 OEM
I thought this should be fine to run Overwatch but as I play my 
CPU Utilization (Task Manager) spikes to 68 to 90% and while GPU stays at a cool 20%
RAM is at 6.2/6.9 (from two sticks of 4 gigs to make 8 gigs)

What's going on and what do I need to do to remedy the situation?

cpu bottleneck is likely the case here, overwatch is no slouch when it comes to cpu usage. what frame rates are u getting.

 

@Fasauceome likely will be able to confirm since i don't play ow.

memory speed matters. What's your performance target?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

My performance target would be to able to play at 70 frames and stream it.

Make sure to quote me so I see your response. 

 

What performance are you getting? What detail level? What memory speed?

oh ok I see
Um I don't particularly know what you mean by performance are you getting, or detail level. 
I have ddr4 2666 mHz

what framerate are you getting? is it stuttering or is it just low? What details are you set to? High, Epic, Ultra?

If you can manage a RAM overclock, it would likely yield an appreciable performance gain.

I'm getting around fluctuating between 68 to 70 so it good. I'm set to Medium ( Graphics, 50% Render scale, and everything else is on the lowest level within the graphics expanded)

In that case the CPU usage percent is unimportant
