Hey guys, so a friend is letting me barrow his GTX 670 while my card gets repaired/replaced. I know its a little old but shouldn't it be able to run Overwatch smoothly? I'm getting ~50 FPS on low settings! Even getting as low as 37fps at times. This cant be right, any ideas?
Thanks!

The card is a few generations old, and graphics complexity has increased tremendously in games in the past couple of years. I'm really not surprised that you're only getting 50 FPS with a card that old.

You're supposed to be getting around 80-100 FPS and a few dips to 50 in low settings considering you're not playing the game on 4k
