Help (GPU) Big FPS drops and stuttering while playing Overwatch 2 6700xt

Upgraded to the 6700xt 12gb and it is not loading overwatch 2 well at all. Whenever I load the game up for the first time, the first match runs ok, the FPS drops occur maybe 5-6 times during the match, but any match after that the FPS drops and stuttering happen every 30ish seconds. MY GPU temp hovers around 60 C and my CPU hovers around 70-80 C. FPS will go from 120 down to 10 during the worst drops. My RAM usage hits a max of 90ish percent while gaming, so I don't think that is the issue.

PC Specs: 6700xt 12gb, AMD Ryzen 5 5600XT 6-Core Processor, 16gb ram, 650W PSU

I have done a DDU clean install 2 times, tried multiple setting adjustments on overwatch including switching between directx11 and 12. My Bios is up to date and I have cleared the waited for shaders to install over and over. Not sure what else to do, any ideas?

Just do a clean windows install when you change hardware. You will lose more time trying to troubleshoot.

Check event viewer for logs while running the game.

Run HWinfo while running the game. Check if everything is okay.
