Overwatch 2 refreshed the original with an engine update focused on larger maps and better lighting, while maintaining excellent optimization. The shift to a 5v5 format slightly reduced the visual clutter, helping with frame rate stability. NVIDIA Reflex is essential for reducing latency, supported on GTX 900 series and up. While minimum specs are low, competitive play at 144Hz+ requires a reasonably modern CPU (Intel Skylake / Ryzen Zen 1 or newer) to handle the fast-paced physics and game state updates.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 391 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 322 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 152 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 5090 is 286% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Overwatch 2. The Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE is 103% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-4770).
The Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GeForce RTX 5090 still has headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $3009. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 391 FPS, equivalent to 0.13 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages. Adjacent heavier settings are lightly stabilized to remove prediction jitter that would otherwise create impossible reversals.
At 1080p low, the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE sets the ceiling at about 460 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 5090 could reach 920 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 50% (FPS gap: 460 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 5090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 50% | CPU Limits GPU 47% | CPU Limits GPU 43% | CPU Limits GPU 41% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 37% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% |
We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.
Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.
CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.
A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings and then monotonic-smoothed across heavier presets and resolutions, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE paired with the GeForce RTX 5090 can run Overwatch 2 smoothly up to 4k achieving around 152 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 286% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 103% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $3009 ($309 CPU + $2700 GPU). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #4 for value).
For Overwatch 2, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 5090 has extra headroom that a faster processor could take advantage of. This is especially noticeable at 1080p where CPU performance matters more. CPU-limited at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Overwatch 2 does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
Overwatch 2 requires at minimum a Core i3-560 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 600 series (GPU) with 6 GB RAM and 50 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-4770 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE and GeForce RTX 5090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Overwatch 2 FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
