(Specs don't seem to be the problem as the game ran fine at around 70FPS on my "AMD Radeon HD 6570" that is what I upgraded from, that was less then a week.)
As for the GeForce GTX 750 Ti on both low and high graphics settings the GPU usage doesn't change at all.
The game jumps around 60-30 FPS no matter how high and low the settings are.

Exactly. I bet dollars to donuts your CPU is pegging at 100% in TF2, which is bottlenecking your GPU performance, since TF2 is a notoriously CPU-bound game.

I think you don't understand what a bottleneck is, especially in this context, fastlex.

Your C P U is the issue. Your graphics card has no hold over this specific game in comparison to the CPU. While your upgrade was pretty cool, it wouldn't have improved performance much. Now, instead you have a larger profiled GPU for your shit to handle.

TF2 is almost entirely about your CPU and just a little bit about your GPU. You can try contacting Setsul, he's incredibly smart in PC/TF2 questions. http://teamfortress.tv/user/setsul

I have a old hd 4890 2gb (waiting for 380x) and I pull 200+ fps paired with a i5 4690k @ 4.8ghz.

Just in case you aren't cpu bound (which you almost certainly are) make sure V-sync is disabled and check your FPS again

I have been summoned.
low GPU usage: normal, you were bottlenecked by your CPU before and now with a more powerful GPU it's even worse.
lower fps than before: I'm not sure if I should believe you, but you could try the 340.52 driver anyway.
EDIT: fixed typo

No source engine game has ever used much more than 50% of my GPU on my system with i7 3770K. Hell a couple years back I used to litecoin mine at the same time as playing TF2 sometimes. I'd just run the miner at a slightly lower priority and have it use about 50% of my GPU and have the game use the rest.
I do agree thought that your CPU is quite dated and that TF2 is pretty CPU heavy.
