Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
The GPU load while the game is running is always at 100%. Enabling VSYNC reduces it a bit, but it's still around 85-100.
This results in very high temperatures and therefore noise from the fans.
My GPU is a RX5700 which should handle the game without problems, as well as the rest of my hardware.
Please explain how to reproduce the issue
The issue is reported by several people with all kind of (high end) GPUs. I have yet failed to find a commonality.

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
It seems the GPU is not limiting the calculated FPS under some circumstances. I'm concluding this, since the problem even occurs while the game is paused. In the main menu the load is constantly at 60%. There is no way the game would be that demanding on the GPU.
I have attached a save game

High GPU Usage
Is it normal to have 96% constant GPU usage in CK3? Even if I drop the settings to low, it still uses 75-80%. GTX 1070
