I recently built my first PC and I am still rather new to the world of PC gaming and want to make sure I am not encountering any performance errors. Most of my friends have told me that I should average around ~230-250 fps with my set up, however I usually only get around 180-140 fps on all low settings (1920x1080). Can any Overwatch players with RTX 2070’s let me know what kinda frames I should be getting?
Here is my setup:
CPU: Ryzen 7 2700 3.2ghz (4.1ghz max boost)
GPU: GeForce RTX 2070 (ARMOR 8G)
Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX (2x8 GB) DDR4 3000
Motherboard: MSI B 450 Tomahawk
Like the other person said, make sure all your drivers are updated. Other than that, make sure your resolution scaling isn’t on Auto. Sometimes I set it to 100% but log on to find it on Auto at 140% which explains my FPS drops.
Aside from that, try contacting their support team and see if it’s a problem with the game.
And I get near 300 frames at mostly low settings and 75% render scale on a 1440p monitor.
If you’re not getting really high frames then something may be wrong with your drivers or one of the settings you have ticked off. You’re on a lower resolution and have a better graphics card than me so you should be doing much better. Overwatch is also very cpu hungry and I don’t know much about AMD but I’m pretty sure Ryzen is supposed to be an i7 equivalent.
And by chance you are playing in Borderless windowed?
Sometimes when i use Borderless it’s capping my framerate to 130~150 fps,
then i change to Fullscreen and the capping is gone, on low setting and 75% render scale i get 300+ on Practice Range.
When i set the render scale to 100%(low settings) it was between 240~300 fps on Practice Range.
CPU: Ryzen R5 2600x, GPU: RTX 2060
Exactly 1 class below your system.
So:
Are you plaing on Borderless windowed?
When you set your settings at low, what is your render scale?
And from where do look for the fps? go to Practice Range or from actual gameplay fps?
The RX580 is 2 years old, only 6 months older than a GTX1060 (6GB version in the video). It is actually newer than the normal 1060. Overwatch uses D3D11 for the rendering engine, and both GPUs support the full feature set of D3D11. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
check your ram speed is as accurate. they ship it lower than advertised. you can set it in the bios. also make sure your widows has plenty of v ram avaliable.
Check CPU temperature. When I built my first PC I didn’t even think about it because I was so new to the idea but if your CPU is running at a high temp then it’ll throttle itself to avoid damage.
If temp is fine then check RAM speed, you usually have to increase it in the BIOS to get the advertised speed.
I get 180-220 fps (Ryzen 1600, 1070 Ti, 16GB @3200MHz , low/medium settings) but none of my hardware is running at peak load, CPU only 35-40%, no core peaks above 80%, GPU 70-80%. I actually don’t know how to push more frames even though my system does have more power. Though sometimes the game will push the GPU more, for example during character selection, it makes the condensers of my GPU ring (they do at 90+% core load) but when the game starts GPU load drops back to 70-80% max.
I can only imagine that somewhere in my system some bus or interface doesn’t have enough bandwidth to push the other hardware more.
