Hi everyone, I have been playing OW for quite a while now and while I am having around 50-70 FPS I want to make some upgrades so I can benefit from the highest possible FPS I can get at a reasonable price.

my specs Summary:

Operating System: Windows 10 Home 64-bit
CPU: Intel Core i5 4690 @ 3.50GHz:
RAM: 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz (11-11-11-28)
Motherboard : ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. H81M-A
Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 480 which i bought a few months ago

Can anyone help? I feel like my low fps holding me down and I would really like to upgrade it as much as possible.

Thanks in advance!

Honestly you shouldn't need to upgrade anything, everything you have is pretty good for what you want to play. I have the exact same processor as you and you have a better graphics than me, but I play overwatch and get high FPS output the whole time. I would try messing with the graphics setting of the game, usually setting things to lower graphics will just give better FPS no matter how good of a graphics card you have. See if anything could be tweaked with your card as well.

Just wanted to leave something if anyone ever has the same issues, after the last AMD updates (20/12/2016) and the new Windows 10 updates my FPS suddenly jumped very high from 80 atm most to 180 and 110\120 at the least.
