Is my GPU bottle necking?

Go to solution Solved by AFOL,

I FIXED IT THE REASON WHY ITS WAS LAGGY WAS BEUCASE THE CPU WAS SELECTED FOR THE GRAPHICS PROSSESOR IN THE BIOS

recently I got the new evga GeForce gtx 980 SC with 4gb of GDDR5 but I think its bottle necking with my RAM or CPU.

 

my cpu is the intel i7-3770 3.4ghz

 

I have ran of few test with battlefield 4 test range:
 

my CPU utilization is above 50% when playing bf4 and sometimes its goes into the 70% mark

but my GPU usage is only about 3% to max about 11% to 15% 

and for some reason I only get max 10 fps

TEST ACCORDING TO TASK MANAGER AND MSI AFTER BURNER

 

so I hope the info helped you out to figure whats wrong with my pc

No. Not your CPU. Your GPU.

I am not sure ( I am kinda a noob with computer hardware) how can I check @Godlygamer23

In MSI Afterburner, scroll down until you see GPU clocks.

its around 540MHz and max is 3506MHz

Your GPU cannot run at 3.5GHz.

This is what I'm referring to. I bet you're looking at memory clocks.

it says my core clock is 405MHz @Godlygamer23

What about under load? Also, you don't have to keep mentioning me. I'm following, so I'll get notifications when you respond.
