Question Not sure what to do honestly

I am playing Assassin's creed Origins with everything on max settings at 1080p, which should be pretty easy for my GPU to run. The problem is its only running at like 40-50 fps in busy areas and around 110 fps just out in the open where there aren't that many people. I have updated BIOS to the newest version, reinstalled AMD drivers multiple times ( Using DDU and just manually doing it). Opening my PC and taking the GPU out and putting it back in. I have reinstalled Windows, I am not sure what the problem could be, my friend running it at all max same gpu is getting around 100 FPS in busy areas. And he is also running it at 1440p. Not sure if there is a CPU bottleneck or what, but its driving me insane. Also the GPU is running at max 80 Watts when in Game, I have also put a screenshot of temps and usage of everything when in the menu of the game. But the temps and usage is similar when in game besides the GPU wattage. Is there anyone who knows what the problem could be?
My specs are
Ryzen 7 3700x
ddr4 3200 MHz
RX 6800 XT
Rog Strix B550 WiFi
Corsair 750 RMx

Running everything stock with no overclocks or anything. Also my fans are 3 pull 1 push config.
 
A few quick questions.

What monitor are you using?

I didn't click your link, so if you wouldn't mind, how much RAM do you have?

What is/are your storage solution(s)?

edit- just a blanket statement quickly while awaiting some details, but that mobo does have 5xxx support. Not particularly germane to the causation of the perceived issue, but for knowing...

I am using AOC aoc u24g2 I think that's the name of the monitor, for ram I have 32GB running at 3200 MHz, and for storage I have windows drive Crucial P5 (NVMe), and for game I have WD blue also NVMe. and in the screenshot its basically GPU usage of 63% and 71C and for cpu its 64% 67.2C, also the GPU has never reached 100% or even close to it, its usually around 70%. The only time it reached 100% was when I was doing a GPU stress test, just to see how everything is.
 
I would triple check and fine tune some of the settings to see if you couldn't get a framerate more in line of what you would like to see. IDK if the AC game gives you the option to turn crowd down and such.
At 1080 more load is on the CPU than graphics card, and both of yours should be capable of very high frame gaming, even AT 1080.

If you run a synthetic benchmark do the numbers for your results fall in line with other same CPU/graphics card?
Think like Cinebench, FireStrike, the little benchmark in CPU-Z, there are lots of different ones to test with and results aplenty online.

If you are on W10 go into "Background Apps" and turn off everything you don't need running in the background. Check your browsers as both Chrome and Edge will continue running. I would also peruse Startup Apps and turn off anything you don't specifically need running all the time from the point you open the PC. Check your game loaders and make sure they aren't all set to run with Windows.
You can do some of this within W11 as well (IDK which one you are on) and there are a couple of sliders where you can turn on 'game mode' where the OS will automagically turn things off in the background as resource demand increases.

It would seem to me there is some more performance to be squeezed from that system (as well). I don't like to get caught up in the whole "friend's same system" thing as no two PC are exactly the same regardless of hardware. Silicone lottery and all that. It would be interesting if you could put your hands on a loaner 1440 monitor and see what happens when you put more load on the graphics card with that setup, but of course that may not be as easily accomplished as said.

The plan was to switch to 1440p gaming in the future, there should be no problem with running games at that resolution. I will do some more testing and have a look at settings and GPU settings as well as CPU settings to see if I can squeeze more performance without overclocking, I will if I have to but I hope there will be no need for it. As for the sliders I already have all the power plans set up as AMD recommended as well as the PC game mode optimization. But thank you anyways for the suggestions.
