I recently upgraded my PC's power supply to a 750w unit instead of the previous 500w. After installing it and launching my games, I noticed my FPS became very unstable. When playing Overwatch 2, I usually maintained around 144 FPS, but now sometimes my FPS drops to just 15-30 for short periods. I initially thought the issue was specific to Overwatch, so I tried Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, which turned out to be extremely difficult after a while. Early on, it was steady at 60 FPS, but later it fluctuated between 20 and 30 even with minimal settings. I haven't confirmed if the new power supply is the cause, as I've updated drivers and Windows but nothing has improved.

Sorry, I mistakenly used the wrong specifications. I copied my details from an older post and failed to update the numbers correctly—actually, it was supposed to be 750 watts, not 500, and 500 watts, not 600.

When gaming, the CPU and GPU temperatures can vary based on the load and system performance. Monitoring tools often provide real-time data to track these values during gameplay.
