Bro but it used before.. Even while playing dying light which is a real heavy game it doesn't use 100% so .............

When you say it used to, what do you mean? Was this on a different CPU?

No, The same CPU but diffrent GPU. I mean the same model and type of GPU that i have right now : Sapphire amd radeon r9 390x. but he had some problems so i took it to the computer lab to repair it and they ordered me a new graphics card. That's all.

games don't utilise all the cores in a multicore CPU, because a lot of calculations depend on the results of previous ones, etc. The game won't be able to utilise all the cores at 100% so that's why windows is not showing 100% overall utilisation on the CPU.

Ok.  But that is a software issue.  

 

Meaning the CPU is not a bottleneck.  

 

If the software was demanding more performance than the CPU could provide then the CPU would be a bottleneck
