basically the problem and my specs can be seen on the photos, if they dont load the problem is cpu usage only hits around 5-10%max while gpu sits on 99%.
Specs - 5 5600x, 1660 6GB, 16GB RAM

look like cpu is waiting on gpu.

how do I fix that, because it stays like that for whole sessions

what the gpu freq?
brand and model of the psu?
try lower game detail?

CUBE II MAX 600W psu, and I dont know how to check gpu frequency maybe this shows it

Is there actually a problem PLAYING the game though? Do you for instance have a lot of stutters or hitching, or is the FPS low or does it dip a lot? The FPS graph clearly presents no such problem.

Since your GPU is about 40% faster than even the recommended GPU, I have to think it's just that your CPU is so much more powerful than what is required that it can support the GPU with it's eyes closed.

I am ALWAYS skeptical about posts that seem to present mere bench stats as being the same as a game performance problem, especially when ZERO is said about actual game performance.

Now granted, typically you don't see CPU usage hovering WELL below 20%, but when I don't see anything mentioned about actual game performance problems, I have to think it might be a knee jerk reaction.

I do often see quick drops and now like 2-3 second freezes, but somehow after Nvidia released new drivers a few days ago it became a lot better, maybe it had to do something with my gpu drivers, since no matter how much I reinstalled them (drivers), other games like Baldur's Gate 3 were also having problems, but with new drivers all's fine.

simpliest fix, I forgot the game was not in my ssd, fixed everything after moving it
