Keyboard repeat keystrokes in overwatch

Hey guys. Its very old bug, I experienced it year ago and it still remains.

Here is the description:
When I play overwatch (didnt tried any other fpa game) for some time (like 1-5 games), my keyboard start repeat previously tapped keys. Its very annoying, it makes me go random directions and game become unplayable.
I got some cheap logitech k120 kb, but problem isnt in it imho.

What I have tried:
- put kb into another usb slot
- change keyboard
- reinstall bios
- clear CMOS
- overcloak usb ports to higher frequency
- jump out of the game when this appear and start type in notepad, to seems if keys are pressed there randomly too (no)
- reinstall windows
- uninstall drivers (it use default windows driver, might be a problem maybe?)

Nothing works. For me, it seems like cpu or mobo at some point start to be overloaded with incoming commands and start "saving them" and release in order the keys have been pressed.

I got win7 pro, mobo Asrock z87 extreme 4.

Im not sure that this is entirely mobo issue, I would rather avoid buy new mobo and realize the issue is still there (I still believe, its some kind of stupid driver behavior in windows).
I got i5-4670K cpu and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960. Its not fresh new machine, but it should be sufficient for simple game like overwatch.

Can you please help me?

Did you update the BIOS for your motherboard? You can't reinstall BIOS on a motherboard, mind you. Please list your full system's specs like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS: Windows 7 Pro

Does the issue happen only with Overwatch or on other titles?
