GPU not really being fully utilized?

[chi_chi_]

as you can see from this picture, the gpu is hovering around 50-60% utilization, and im getting in the 40-50s of fps. I have a 1080 and fully updated drivers and stuff, why is this happening? When i put the setting on ultra, the fps maybe drops like 5 but it stays pretty close to what it was on medium, the only thing is that gpu is being used a lot more. Is there a way for me to get the high utilization of the gpu when the game is on ultra when im on medium so i can get more fps?

 second image is when its on ultra. I'm not the most experienced with this sorta thing so any help is great. I'm thinking about upgrading the cpu so if thats the issue great.

 

ryzen 5 1600 (14nm)

stock cooler

asrock b450

gtx 1080

2x8gb 3000mhz ram

game is on 860 evo 1tb

650w psu

 

Edit: after a bit more testing, it seems that when the game is on ultra is does stutter a good bit and when i pan around the camera the fps tanks. Having the game on like medium/high settings is kinda my sweet spot, because it is a lot less stutter-y, and the game runs at more fps

@adarwI wasn't really planning on it, I was more just wondering if I could get the same gpu utilization on medium compared to the gpu utilization on ultra.

afaik MS LFight sim is pretty CPU heavy and it really looks like that from your Screenshots. Even though no Core is at a full 100% utilization I would still assume that this is where your bottleneck is.
