Hello, I always get +80FPS on Fortnite ( Highest Settings ) , With my GTX 1060 3GB , And i7-8700k overclocked to 5Ghz, i do have 144hz montior, my problem is when i play fortnite on 70-95fps its feels like 30fps , i don't know why, When i change the settings to low i get over 200fps and its feels like 144hz, but when i back it to maximum settings its feels like 30fps when i play on 70-95fps , I tried V-Sync on and off, i tried reinstalling my windows, What's the fix that's really annoying, and the temp are good CPU temp is like 70 on maximum load, and gpu temp is good too what to do?

And by the way its not playable, its really feels like 30fps its not because i use 144hz now and i see 80fps laggy, no its really not playable.

I use XL2411 BenQ Monitor ( 144hz )
i7-8700k
gtx 1060 3gb
16gb ram
750w bronze psu
 
i just bought my 750w bronze psu for 150$ from a local stores, he told me that's good etc so i got it
The MasterWatt you got is good. Not the best one but good enough. If you ever need to buy another one:

what should i upgrade next?, i will upgrade to gtx 1080ti, should i upgrade something else?
I recommend you buy good RAMs. High FPS, no stutter gaming requires good matching RAMs. If you compared your benchmarks, you'd notice CPU/GPU performance increased after RAM adjustment.
Example:https://pcpartpicker.com/product/MYH48d/corsair-memory-cmk16gx4m2b3000c15
If you decide one to buy, make sure it's listed.. Not all RAMs are compatible. I just browsed through the compatibility list to pick that Corsair.

--------------------------------------
Other than too many background apps and mixed RAMs, I can only think about unstable CPU OC. You could save BIOS and try resetting. If it doesn't work, load your saved profile.

"kerberos_20" seems to have an idea too.
 
frametimes looks fine
one more thing to test...
go to windows settings -> system -> power & sleep-> onadditional settings chnage power plan to high performance
then open web browser with youtube page on it, open some video and pause it, then open game (dont close that youtube video)
 


Look, When i set my screen to 60hz or even 75hz, i feel the same thing with the mouse cursor, so that's not in game only
But give me a min i will try what u said
 

Well i did that, in low settings ( +150fps ) nothing happened, in high settings ( not highest ) i got like 120fps but the game is so laggy, Even without the video i feel its more laggy now idk why, but with low settings everything is good even with the video
 


Oh thank you so much, so if i upgraded my gpu to gtx 1080ti everything will be okay? i don't need to upgrade anything like rams?
 

Well, i got 1080 ti aorus, and still same problem .
