Overwatch is an online shooter developed by Blizzard. It brings good graphics and fun gameplay to the table. This game is well-optimized and that’s why it’s light and you can play it whit some modern low-end dGPUs with comfortable FPS at least on Low settings.

In the meantime, if you have a high refresh rate display and you want to see a lot of FPS then an inexpensive device isn’t the way to go. For this comparison, we’ll compare two decent mid-rangers – the GeForce RTX 3060 (95W) and RTX 3060 (65W).
