Same thing in Crysis 2, GTAV, Fallout4. Nothing above 60% GPU usage. In GTAV, I'm getting 80% CPU usage and 60% GPU.

Don't have a screenshot (precision doesn't wanna place nice anymore) but in Metro Last Light, I'm getting 120+ FPS and 99% usage.

Is my CPU the bottleneck here? Why is my GPU not being fully utilized?

 

1440p on GTX 980ti Hybrid 4670K 8GB of RAM

Go into display adapter properties in windows, click on the monitor tab, and make sure the monitor is set to 100hz.

 

For windows 10 just right click on desktop, display settings / advanced display settings / display adapter properties
