I would add that in my case I have tried to get the GPU to run at 100% (or nearly so) all the time, that’s what it’s designed to do and it doesn’t cause stutters or other problems…stutters are caused generally when the CPU is at 100% on one core/thread and the GPU has to wait. I am a VR user and have always used 100% of my GPU (both a 3090 and now 4090), and tuned the graphics settings and OS settings such that the CPU is not maxed out on any core and this has given very smooth performance and good FPS. Also, I would mention that when folks try to run ultra settings it consumes a lot of CPU in particular and the visual difference is not that noticeable but it can introduce stutters even on high end equipment, so even with a 13900k and 4090 I don’t run ultra settings, I run high and it’s a meaningful difference in smoothness (measured by 1% and 0.1% fps lows) and overall fps.
