I’ve given up on running ASA using a 5900x and a 10gb 3080, cuz I can barely get a stable 40fps at 4K with clouds turned off and the settings as low as I can tolerate them (including upscaling turned on). If you’re playing at a lower resolution you’ll obviously have a much better time with it than I do, but fair warning this game is just unoptimized as fuck.
My performance is entirely gpu-bound, but that’s also what you’d expect at 4K so if you run 1080p for example a 5000-series cpu would probably give you a big jump in performance. A 5950x, 5900xt, 5900x, 5800xt, etc would be a really nice upgrade from your current cpu and with a bios update your board should support them all. If you’re able to find one, a 5800x3d or 5700x3d would be ideal if this is a purely gaming pc for you, though they’re not as powerful for productivity stuff.
The only other thing I’d check out is just to see if you have vsync enabled / a framerate cap, your gpu usage being low is probably just from the cpu bottleneck but those two things can also cause it
