okey this is a problem i seen for lot of years in overwatch but i am bit tired of seeing 0 awnsers on the problem yet, so i ask here to see how manny this affect ?
Ok i followed the esportsettings /overwatch-optimization-guide/
for the most sim / fps i can . The thing is that the last sim spikes all the time not like once and a while but all the time never stable even if i stand 100 % still look into a wall it goes from 5-15 and on 300 fps it should be impossible. Done evrything about w10 that could affect sim and no geforce experience installed ofc. Is it only me having this cind of problems 2018 Agust?
Tried resetting bios the game and so on nothing works whatever grafic i change in ow doesent mather sim still spikes allways the last one
specs of my computer are
i5 7500, 3,4ghz
gtx 1070 8 gb
2 x 8 ddr 4 Kingston 2666 mhz
ben q xl 2411, 144 hz
Fiber Cable 250/250 mb
windows 10 evrything updated
Strange. I would suggest to uninstall and reinstall the game, and to uninstall and do a cleain install of graphic drivers. Also tune the settings in graphic controll panel to favor performance
You cap the FPS at 142 on a 144hz monitor “Noob”. Never go higher than th REFRESH RATE of your monitor cuz that cause input lag, cause UNecessary overheating and that was proved years ago on CS running at 300 fps is a MYTH
well yes the thing is even without using voices the sim spikes to 10-15 even if i stand 100 % still dont move mouse nothing on training mode with 300 fps … and thats f terrible !
Higher FPS than refresh rate reduces input lag, capping at or below may RR on your monitor causes it, vSync causes it too.
@OP:
If you get periodic lag spikes, like, having 144fps, drop to 60, back to 144 and such every few seconds, its likely to be caused by either MSI Afterburner, turn Low level access off in that scenario.
If that does not work or if you dont have Afterburner installed at all, its likely to be caused by the powerline. Your power supply unit can handle slight increases pretty well, like, going from 230V to 233V in germany. What It cannot handle are power drops. Like, going from 230V to 220V and back to 230V for a second. To erase that problem, you need to distribute the power you are taking to many outlets to make the problem occure less. I draw a peak of 1364W according to my power meter, those come from 3 Monitors and my system which consists of
Ryzen 7 1700 @1.4V, 3.9GHz
Gainward GTX 1080 Phoenix GLH (custom water cooled) @2075MHz, 1,075V
ASUS STRIX Gaming F X270 MoBo
Ballistix Sport 2166 16GB Ram
Micron 1TB SSD for games
Intenso 256GB SSD for system
Seagate STD1000GB HDD for capturing gameplay with OBS
some other components which are irrelevant to this, Keyboard and mouse for example.
1364W arent enough to trigger a 16AMP fuse since it can provide 16A*230V= 3680W without blowing, but it is enough to temporary drop the voltage of the main power line.
tl;dr: Try to distribute your power draw more and shut down MSI Afterburner, check if the problem still occurs and post info
God tier pc (300 fps stable) = 300 fps + reduce buffering off.
High end pc (Varying fps between 200-300 fps) Reduce buffering on limit to refresh rate.
Low end - mid end = Reduce buffering on limit fps to lowest value you see in team fights.
