Overwatch: Insane stuttering and lag? (Workarounds)

Short answer

Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Load into the practice range and wait a few minutes to let the game build shader caches. If that fails, use Display Driver Uninstaller to clear your GPU cache and delete your local config files.

The problem

Since the new update dropped i cant play at all, before the update i was playing perfectly fine with low graphics and no stuttering at all, whats the cause?
