Hi there
Recently bought a:
i3-7100
geforce gtz 1050 2gb oc
asus prime b250m-a
8gb ram 2400mhz
I mostly bought this just to play overwatch, and after checking multiple benchmarks i saw this was a pretty decent setup for a decent price.
However running this game at 100% render scale and high/ultra settings gives me around 100-150fps wich is still good, but if i do 75% render scale and all other graphics settings to low/off it does give me a higher fps overall when idle ingame or walking around. The reason i wanted to lower my settings, is that i thought it would give me a higher stable fps when in heavy combat. Like i said at higher settings max fps is lower than with lower settings, but still on low settings and 75% render scale fps will still drop to 100 when in heavy combat.
I did check cpu/gpu usage multiple times and its not really reaching 100% in heavy combat. Only rarely it jumps up to 100 for a second or hover around 70-90%. Temperatures are fine for both aswell.
It would be normal that lowering settings gives me not only higher fps wich it does, but also give me a higher stable fps like instead of higher graphics 100 stable fps in heavy combat to 115-120+ stable fps when in heavy combat.
Ive been reading forums and all that stuff, also trying to tweak windows 10 for the good performance but im just really confused and lost what to do here. I reinstalled windows yesterday just to try it out and downloaded mb/gpu drivers again but its still the same thing. Maybe i messed up something with downloading drivers, wich unlikely would be the case since gpu driver is just follow the steps 1 by 1 and download the correct version ofcourse. Downloading mb drivers was new for me since i never downloaded mb drivers manually before ( kind of an idiot with pc's forgot to mention that ) but it was just unpack drivers and i saw multiple setups i could click and just downloaded it.
It would be weird if something is bottlenecking each other since i can push higher frames when idle or in practise range but not increase my stable fps while in heavy combat.
if its any use to you guys here is the website that i downloaded my drivers.
MB:
https://www.asus.com/us/motherboards/prime-b250m-a/helpdesk_download/
Downloaded SATA, CHIPSET, LAN and AUDIO
GPU:
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
Also did some heavy tweaks to windows 10 to try and fix the problem, but after reinstalling windows i wanted to see if it even mattered what i did when gaming.
The things that i did now was:
1. Disabling all xbox services in windows services
2. Disable superfetch in windows services
3. basicly turned everything off in windows options that would give me either,
Map updates
notifications
windows performance menu and some other stuff
Last thing that ill mention before putting my faith into you're hands xd
The game sometimes doesnt feel smooth in heavy combat even though its still running 90-100+ fps at all times. I do have a 60hz monitor, and i know theres a lot of you that will say but dude you wont notice anything higher than you're refresh rate and it will not change a thing. It does for me there might be a little bit more screen tearing but the game feels a lot smoother than with display based or v-sync < No im not using that since it highly increases my input lag;p
So if you guys have any ways to fix this or have tips i highlyyyyy appriciate it. Sorry for the long post but i wanted to make sure i put in everything that i tried or every problem that has occured.
