Lower FPS in Overwatch with Razer Synapse | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Around the beginning of September, I've noticed some serious frame rate drops with Overwatch. I usually play at 120 FPS but I've been getting around 60 FPS. When my FPS is displayed in Overwatch it has one period at the end, this means the CPU is under load. When I look at my task manager I notice that my CPU is only around 70 - 80% usage. So then I turned off Razer Synapse and then the period on the FPS counter went away, as well as my FPS boost to what it usually is. After tinkering around RGB settings and such I notice that this FPS drop only occurs when using connected devices with Razer Synapse (such as Nanoleaf and TT RGB Plus) but I still get a period at the end of the FPS counter in Overwatch. I have tried uninstalling Razer Synapse and Overwatch and reinstalling them to no avail. I even have Razer Cortex installed to try and optimize it, but it is still not enough. I really hope this gets fixed because I really enjoy using all of my RGB devices under one software as well as having them sync with special effects in some games.



Has anyone else been getting any similar issues to me?
