Hey, I've been having issues with my gaming PC for a while now and I'm wondering if you have any tips on what the issue might be.
Specifications:
Monitor: ASUS 240Hz 2560x1440p
Motherboard: MSI MAG Tomahawk B550
Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
Graphics Card: Palit GameRock 3090Ti
RAM: G.Skill Trident 3600Hz 16GBWater cooling
The Problem:
The performance worsens when a lot is happening simultaneously. This occurs, for example, in Overwatch during team fights, and I also have the same issue in games like the finals, etc. I've also been monitoring the FPS, which doesn't have any drastic drops, but still feels much lower than it actually is. This means the game is smooth when there are no team fights and not much activity in the game.
Things I've tried to solve the problem:
Changed the processor and RAM
Tested with a different monitor
Changed cooling
Checked temperatures, which don't seem to be an issue
Tried different settings without improvement, and performance doesn't get better with lower settings
Also tried changing the resolution without seeing any improvement
Tested the PC with benchmarks without receiving any error messages
Tested without G-Sync, without improvement
XMP is enabled in BIOS
I'm a bit stuck on what this could be, and I appreciate any tips

have you looked into server lag ? If your fps are not dropping what about your ping to the server when you jump into the middle of a fight with a lot of people

Overwatch during team fights then said there are no team fights ?

I completely missed adding my PSU, it's the Corsair RM1000x and I've also verified the ping is normal. So essentially, the game runs smoothly without team fights, but during team fights it seems to drop to around 60fps.

Do you know if your game runs on an HDD or SSD and have looked for any firmware updates?

I conducted some tests in OW focusing on frame time, 1% and 0.1% lows.
Frame time stayed around 3-5 ms during the match.
1% lows varied between 200 and 130, with the lowest being 120.
0.1% lows fluctuated between 170 and 100.
These issues only appeared in team fights.
My next concern is identifying the cause of these problems.

They seem perfectly reasonable to me.

I also ran the Superposition test and achieved 8000, which feels a bit lower than expected given my specifications. Did others achieve much higher results with the same configuration?
