Solve : My GPU seems capped at 40% when playing games, unplayable.?

Answer»

Hi, i'm looking for help here in the forum because nothing seems to work.
Let's take out of the way my specs:

i7 3770k 4.2Ghz paired with a Thermaltake Frio OCK
Asus P8Z68V Pro Gen3
Nvidea GTX 1060 3Gb Asus Phoenix
16Gb RAM DDR3 1333Mhz
500W Powersuply
1 500Gb HHD and other 2Tb HHD.

Well, i have been playing mostly Apex LEGENDS for the past months until it just started running really badly.
i usually got around 60 to 100 fps all in low 1080p, when suddenly, one day, it just stopped being that way. i started to get just 30fps or even lower with no parent reason to why.
Bothered by this i opened MSI AFTERBURNER to check if my components were overheating and, by consequence, throttling: my CPU was around 50°C to 60°C and my GPU reached 70°, nothing wrong here.
But i noticed that my GPU and CPU usage wasn't going up more than 40% to 50% even if i capped the game to 60fps or used V-Sync.
i already TRIED everything i know, deactivated firewall, widows defender and all overlays, reinstalled the game, pulled out the GPU from the PCIe socket. Nothing. Restarted PC. Nothing. I even DDU'd GPU drivers and reinstalled not only the newest ones but older ones too. NOTHING.
i'm in a lost of options and don't know what to do, please help me.

Ah, just FYI, i'm not a native English speaker so i can mess up my writing a lot, thanks for understanding.

If you can't see it:
GPU: 59°C, 36%
MEM: 2603 MB
CPU: 63°C, 43%
RAM: 7462 MB
D3D11: 30 FPSI'm assuming you already installed the latest drivers for your GPU.Never assume...
