Overwatch fps issues

[Snack]

So I've really enjoyed Overwatch lately, but I've ran into some serious fps problems; dropping to 5-10 fps when engaging in combat and major lag spikes. I've limited my fps to 30, and when running around before a match I'm sitting comfortably at 29-30 (evem though that is still very low). I have Vsync on, my internet connection is 100/25, I have all graphics setting on the lowest possible, and have updated the drivers for my graphics cards, nothing have worked though.

I'm playing on a stationary PC and I'm wired to my router, which I have even port forwarded.

Have anyone experienced similar problems, or does anyone know of a solution? Anything would be appreciated.

Might help if you give the specs on your rig instead of useless information like your internet speed.

Will do when I get home

it does sound like you're pushing outdated hardware if you're getting 20-30 fps on the lowest settings

It's just weird, since Overwatch is the only game I'm lagging in...

Overwatch is a much newer game though so depending on what other games you play and don't lag in will help tell if it's just your system overheating or bottlenecking, you can download speedfan or a programme like that and have it open when playing to see what your cpu and gpu temps go to while playing

Turn vsync off rofl is this bait?

I have tried that.

And through the ingame FPS, MS, and Temp info, in the top left corner, it says my temp is 60 degrees, which afaik isn't too bad?

Just from having a quick search your cpu is really only just meeting the minimum requirements for overwatch which is probably creating a bottleneck for the rest of your computer and possibly even causing the cpu to overheat which combined are probably what's giving you the issues

using the scaling feature if you need too. it helps a lot. i was able to get like 40fps out of my amd fx7500 laptop with integrated graphics.

What scaling feature?

And I managed to almost get rid of the lag spikes by limiting fps to 30, and disabling QoS
