Whenever i start a game like Battlefield 1 the GPU starts running at 100% and stays there, even if I'm just in the menu. I have a 2060 super with a global max fps set to 60 and all game graphics are set to low. Battlefield 1 should not be a very demanding game. The same happens with 7 Days to Die, 100% even in game menu. I've tried restarting, same thing happens.
 
Are you referring to the GPU fans ramping up to 100% rpm in menu, or the GPU usage ?

Anyways, kindly first provide PC specs.

-1. "Complete" system specs should ALWAYS be accompanied with any driver, hardware, or performance question. Do not post DXDiag reports as they contain a TON of useless information. Posting a DxDiag in place of a System Spec List tends to ward off potential members from helping you.

Please supply the following system details/information as much as possible. No need to provide each and every detail though, since this is just for reference:

(Complete System Specs)
-CPU make and model# (clock speed/voltage, type of cooler, and "Core" temperature @ idle and load)
-Motherboard make & model# (include Bios version if graphics card is not recognized or you are having stability issues)
-RAM (amount, clock speed, model#/link of kit, configuration)
-Graphics card(s) make and model# (clock speed, voltage if modified, Driver version and GPU temp both @ idle and load)
-Power supply make,model#, "AND" age (note if using 110V or 220V A/C input)
-HDD/SSD configuration (ie: Raid setup/ back up/ OS drive/etc..)
-Case/Chasis make,model# (fan make, model#, and configuration if having thermal issues)
-Operating System (If using Windows note Framework and service pack version)
-Monitor make, model#, and resolution (If model# is unknown list resolution and refresh rate)

*If "Crashing":
-Note the nature of the "crash" in detail, as there are several definitions for the word "crash".

*If "performance" related issue:
-Note the "exact" point in which the performance reduction occurred (ie: After Windows update, After Bios update, After Driver update, After thermal system shutdown, After Hardware change/upgrade etc...)

*For diagnostic purposes please disable the following:
-Any/all Antivirus/ Anti-malware software
-Any/all OSD monitoring software
-ALL overclocks outside of factory spec
.
 
Thanks for getting back to me :) I'm referring to GPU usage.

My specs:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10400F CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 3200Mhz 16GB
ASUS ROG Strix Z490-A GAMING motherboard
Gainward GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER Ghost
TX750 220V power supply, not sure about the age.
All disks in operation when GPU stays at 100% are SSD.
Windows 10 Home
3 Monitors, 1080p, 60Hz (game running on one monitor)
