I have recently just upgraded to a RTX 2060, but upon playing BF5 i have been unable to even reach 60fps on high, my usage is showing 100% cpu, 50% gpu.
My rig is
i5-4690k
RTX 2060
8GB DDR3
I was expecting some CPU bottlenecking but I never anticipated it being so great, are there any recommendations to alleviate some of this and upgrade path ( I was thinking Ryzen 2600). I have latest drivers and completely uninstalled my past drivers using DDU
 
Solution
i did a google search and apparently other people are having this issue too.

"PSA: Future frame rendering OFF will test your system heavily - and esp the cpu to gpu power relation. With no respite from rendering 3 frames at a time, any bottleneck in cpu will show heavily when used. So only use this if input lag is more imp than fps, and your fps >90 or so."
Do NOT switch FFR on if you have a low end CPU or relatively low compared to the GPU.
I have a i7-8700K and 1080 - I have it ON with DX12 OFF.
