1660ti being wonky or just bottlenecked?

Alright so I just bought an Evga 1660ti 6gb to replace my terrible manufacturer special Amd r290. After a driver install I booted up fallout 4 and turned it all the way to ultra at 1080p, minus weapon debris and god rays turned off. I was getting on average of 45-50 FPS. Shouldn’t this card be absolutely crushing this game at 60fps+? I then proceeded to boot up GTA V turned to very high/ultra and was only getting around 30fps...shouldn’t this be running around 80-100fps? Is my gpu getting bottlenecked by my cpu?

 

Specs. 
Amd A8 5600 3.2ghz base clock

Evga GTX 1660ti 6gb

8 gigs DDDR4 Ram

1tb HDD 6200 rpm

550 watt evga gold psu

I know. Bought the gpu first. Sucks being in high school working at min wage so I bought the most expensive thing first to get it outta the way.

Definitely bottle-necked by your CPU.

yep surely is cpu. for me i was on a old i7 4770 till vrm controller gave out and cooked the cpu the die literally cracked i taken it apart to find it so and broke it open even the rainbow area was coated dark. anyways once i finally gotten to a 2700x as a replacement my 1080ti went insane the performance in fallout alone was amazing. even being in downtown boston was not the slide show as it use to be lmao.
