So when I run the witcher 3 at 4k high settings I get around 40-60 FPS with a GTX 1070 TI. My GPU is always running at 99-100% Load and my CPU runs at around 6-18% Load. Is that Normal? I have a R5 1600x

If the CPU doesn't need to work hard it won't ramp up. 
When I play Shadow of the Tomb Raider at 1080p ultra, my CPU is at 23% usage and my 1070 is at 5% usage; I get 60fps locked.
