Fps locked to 57 when GPU usage hits 100%

[julian.c.haller]

My specs:
Asus turbo GTX 1060 6GB
amd ryzen 1600x @3.6 Ghz
Corsair Vengance LPX 2x4 gb DDR4 (3000mhz)
Toshiba DT01ACA050 500GB
Asus Prime B350M-A
cpu cooler: Arctic Pro Low Noise [silent class II]
[zert. Gaming] Low Noise 650Watt

I recently resolved an issue with ryzen and not enough ram, just to encounter my fps being locked to 57 and usually sitting around 56 fps. The issue is resolved for about 10 seconds if vsync is turned off and on. I put my settings on very low and it did not help at all. I would appreciate any help.

First of all , what games are we talking about? What resolution? Have you ever hit more than 60 in any game? Did you benchmark your gpu? Have you tried cs go? I don't know whether your problem is throttling , bottleneck from gpu or just a metter of a title.
