I have a 4690k and i had a 970. Upgraded to a 1080ti and now I am getting an average of 80 fps in Overwatch when before I was getting an average of 140 with the same exact settings...

Trying to wrap my head around what is going on. Can't be a power issue, I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers..

Does anyone have any idea what is causing this?

- NVIDIA Control Panel could be capping the performance of your GPU for power management
- Could be background processes hogging hardware resource, check if there are any background processes hogging resources
- CPU could be capped from power management settings
- Ensure the storage disks have been cleaned / optimised as far as possible and regularly
- Could be virus / malware using hardware resource, run scans as appropriate
- Out of date / conflicting drivers - ensure all of your drivers are up to date - Use DDU to remove old driver prior
- GPU or CPU could potentially be overheating - you'd need to monitor temps and % load of the components.

Edit: Also what make and model is your PSU?
