Guys
I played Overwatch a bunch in the open beta, even though it ran like shit on my computer (Played a lot of Mercy to compensate)
I did a bunch of research and upgraded my processor since I figured it'd been bottlenecking my GPU for a long time figuring it'd be enough of an upgrade to be able to play the game normally, but now that the game's released it still runs like shit, even with the new processor. (Noticably less shit, but still unplayable unless I just play Mercy.)
Here's my
>CPU
Intel Core i3-4170 3.70GHz
>GPU
Nvidia GTX 750 Ti
Could any more experienced PC builders tell me what I'm doing wrong here? Is my trusty old meme card GPU just not strong enough to handle the game, or did I shoot too low on the new processor? Is there something else that could be fucking things up?
I brought this up in another thread, and they mentioned the processor I bought is shit. I upgraded without changing the motherboard, which has an 1150 socket. Would that socket be screwing me over here? I don't know how to compare processors, honestly, so any help is appreciated.
Post this on /g/. Sage.

What's the ram even?
I don't know, contrary to what most are saying here, that CPU will run most modern games at decent frame-rates. Should sustain 50 fps at 1080p.
The GPU is likely the limiting factor though, it's kind of.... not new? I wouldn't say it's old yet, but it's more of a mid-range gpu.
For brand new releases at 1080p, you're likely looking for a gtx 980 or something.
I don't really stay up to date with the latest GPUs, but I can tell you that the GTX 750 ti will struggle to run most semi-modern games at 40 fps in 1080p.
