So I put in my new cup yesterday Ryzen 5 2600 to replace my 2400g which was bottlenecking my gtx 1070 in doing this it hasn’t helped much as the cpu is chilling at its normal usage and below constant 60° but the you usage is never about 90% usually around 50% I need help as I just wanna play at a solid 200 FPS +

As mentioned above, can you post your specs? What is your gpu usage? What games are affected and what graphics settings are you using?

How about your ram and its speed?

8 gb 2666

if it's a single stick it could be the ram bottlenecking. I had a single stick of 8gb ram @2133mhz, someone suggested me to upgrade it to a 3200mhz 2x8 ram and it did a massive increase of fps. The ram could be bottlenecking the cpu because the sweet spot for a ryzen cpu is 3000mhz or 3200mhz and up in terms of ram speed. Ryzen CPUs relies on your ram speed as they say.

 

Before that, you might want to look at the manual of your board if it supports 3000+ speeds of ram.

 

I could be wrong but I'm sure with this. I'm open to any corrections as they will be acknowledged by me. Let's wait for others' opinions as more information is always better

But it’s my gpu usage that’s the problem is sitting at like 50% where it should be at least about 90 so does ram really affect gpu usage that much 

Um I don't play fortnite but it's not a hardware intensive game so your GPU usage isn't outrageously low also your ram speed doesn't matter all that much to your cpu but bandwidth does zen+ needs alot of bandwidth and no ram speeds doesn't affect your GPU I'm sorry if I gave wrong diagnosis to your problem I can't fully understand what your problem is

The problem is that my gpu usage is running at about 50% where it should be above 90% constant atleast right ? And can’t figure out why
