Daily IND spikes make my game unplayable

So I have daily IND spikes from 20 to 30+MS. Not huge but even when it jumps from 20 to 23ms its causing this moment of lag where its messing up an entire play and affecting my aim considerably. I’m using Ethernet cable too not a Wi-Fi so i don’t know why i’m getting the Packet-Loss.

i’m not sure if your mini-lags are due to the connection - but rather to your system

maybe you should clean up the autostart, close many background programs and free up space on your hard drive

you have less than 10% free space (which is the recommended amount of free space for it to function properly) —> you have ~2,8%. you want to have about 20-25GB free

play some matches without vpn and all the crazy vpn-tools´n´stuff

test … and report back

yea that helped me a lot especially the AutoStart and closing background programs , the spikes went away but I’m still getting 23 IND instead of 20 is that normal ?

i would say that you even have pretty good values (in the upper third)

( Blizzard Support - Diagnosing Overwatch Network Problems )

and yes, i rather think that your lags come from the issues already described above
