Doesn't matter what I do GPU load stays around 50 to 60% spikes to 85%. And game runs like garbage on a 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra. This a fresh install of windows 10 without PX1 on 472.12 drivers. Anything higher for drivers only makes it worse. 

Gonna need more info pal.

What info do you need Card clocks are usually about 1935 temps never never above 55. CPU is a AMD 5900X and temps during gaming about 60. Board watts are about 300W. And I'm running games at 2k at 144fps. But get stupid stutters and low gpu usage. CPU and GPU are not overclocked and no overclocking software is installed.

- Have you ever installed and run the latest version of PX1 and gotten the firmware update? 
 
- Do you have a Resizable Bar bios on your motherboard and is rebar working?  If it is, have you tried disabling it?  
 
- What version of windows 10, is it 21H2, which I think is the latest?  Is it up to date?
 
- What kind of core usage do you get in the 5900X, do you have several cores/threads that hit sustained 100% use while others are low use?  That would indicate a CPU bottlenecking issue
 
- What kind of ram and is XMP enabled and stable?
 
- Does the GPU slot read in software and bios as PCIe 4.0 and 16x?
 
- Do hotspot and vram temps as reported by HWiNFO report in a normal range?
 
- Are you running max settings in games, what happens when you do something crazy like increasing resolution scaling to 2x?
 
- Are you running Geforce expereince?

As i said fresh install and no overclocking software or PX1. Windows 10 is up to date and 21H2. Rebar is disabled in MB bios. No Geforce Experience ever on any system and always use DDU. Vram temps max 72. Max settings in games Ray tracing off .It is running in 4.0. Games on SSD at 4.0 And if a 5900X bottlenecks you have a serious problem. Resolution scaling increases vram usage but doesn't help GPU usage. If I could just post pics here it would be so much easier. 

HINT:

And raising screen resolution did raise GPU usage to 99% but also screwed frame time and FPS and stutters even worse lol Notice GPU clocks are crap as well by doing that.

Yes I haver the latest bios. Did that before reinstalling windows.

Just to be clear - You loaded the EVGA Precision X1 software, ran it, had the card go into a firmware update, and then you uninstalled PX1?

Yes updated firmware and then did a fresh install of windows. This started when I went from a 3080 to this 3080 TI . Basically have same settings in game 3080 nice and smooth this thing a stuttering mess . Yes I have frame rate locked but even without the frame rate lock the stutters are even worse. It's unplayable without locking the framerates. 

 
Can you test out any other game titles?  If so, do you get the same result?  If you do, I would contact EVGA for an RMA.

temp lock for review

Try driver 471.96 & select BIOS switch on your FTW3, to 2nd position (more fan RPM @ idle)
 
do not set Nvidia Control Panel to Max Performance .... until you see what it does before that change
 
Set Fans to Custom profile - you should set 90% fan speed by around 60C
 
--> Set Voltage Slider to 95% or lower ..... above 95% I see an instant jump in temps
 
Set GPU & RAM to +0 for your Baseline Test
 
RAM over +500 causes a Big jump in temps, in my experience
 
How cool is your room ? A 40C temp Rise over the Room temp is usually what I see, it can vary
 
Case & case fan setup ?  #blow In & # blow Out @ what RPM
 
What CPU & MB ? any other hardware in your build in a PCI slot ?
 
GPU-Z PerfCap Reason ?

Cool GTX

It's always in OC position due to Hybrid kit. I keep the fans running for the memory chips. Thermaltake Level 20GT 2 200MM fans Front and 2 at top. Hybrid rad at top 420, Rad side mounted for CPU and a 140mm fan at rear. Temps on CPU max 68 with Prime for an hour. Temps on GPU have never been higher than 68C either. Memory temps on GPU Max I've seen is 74C.
 
 

I went from 472.12 to 511.79 drivers about an hour ago as usual only made things worse. 
 

OOOOO.....You are triggering performance limit "Power" and "Utilization" while at 30% TDP.  Usually that's a sign that the power limit is stuck low on the card.  You may need to reinstall X1 or AB and reset the power limit.

Actually tried that before installing the new drivers an hour ago. Install PX1 and made sure everything was at default then uninstalled and used DDU to update drivers.

I'd install both AB and X1, run your (cpu light) benchmark of choice and make sure you have control of the card, by adjusting things while the bench is running.  
 
You hit "apply" in X1......?

Well I installed 472.96 drivers with ddu and went into bios and set command to 2t. Bios locked up on reboot and when it did decide to reboot bsod. It won't run on 2t and I hope that's all it is still trying to get into bios to change it back.

That's strange, but not indicative of anything, just an unstable memory config.  You can check rank with CPU-Z or typhoon burner.  It's likely Single though. 
 
I would disable XMP entirely until the GPU is fixed.
