New components with low fps

[ethan9080]

I just upgraded to an FX-8350 and an ASUS GTX-1060 3GB from my previous FX-6300 and R9 280X.
A significant upgrade. But I get around 100 fps on all LOW settings!!!!! I really want to get 200+ and I really need to fix this. wtf is the problem here? I have done a fair bit of research and figured out that my CPU should not be bottle necking my GPU. PLS HELP

I accidentally installed the new nvidia drivers while i had the amd drivers installed. I removed the amd drivers and im still having the same problem.

When you are gaming have you monitored your CPU usage of each core as well as your GPU usage?

What refresh rate is your monitor? If it is only 60 hz then anything above 60fps is useless as it can only display 60fps. Also Overwatch loves a strong quad core cpu and the reason why you won't see al that much of an increase is because yours is an 8core and over watch utilizes the extra 4 cores you have less than the other 4.
