    Specs
    Intel i5 6400
    Gtx 950 2gb
    8gb DDR4
    I noticed that my gpu is at near 100% most of the time it constantly dips form 90 to 98% and my cpu usage is mid 70s

    High GPU usage is good, shows you have the correct video settings and are using your expensive GPU to it's fullest potential. (if it's keeping a good framerate). No harm done, but if you want to run higher settings, a graphics card upgrade can be done. The GTX 950 is no monster, it's quite slow really.
