CPU displayed incorrect usage.

In MSI afterburner, when I'm playing r6s, the usage of the CPU is always saying, 5-10 percent usage, it's strange and I thought it was just everyone, then I looked at a benchmark video with the same CPU, GPU, and ammount of ram and its speed. The usage is usually 50-60, while I'm here stuck with the CPU saying 5-10, its very misleading and confuses me. Anyone have any idea to get the CPU to display the correct info? (Btw using Nvidia overlay, it has the same issue)
Specs:
H510 Case
GTX 1660 SUPER MSI
Ryzen 5 5600x
16GB Ram 3200mhz
B450 Aorus Pro Wifi

As long as the GPU usage is at 90%~100% and the performance is fine then there is no reason to worry about it.

Yes, it does perform 90-100 percent, although drops to 80-90, quickly because I'm using the stock cooler
