Please describe the issue and steps to reproduce it

Using the overwatch ability causes the NR to start glitching and FPS drops to 20fps from 80fps, turning of NR does not help and the game has to be restarted.

I have attached

Probably a game issue tbh, when I tried Zero Company without any mods or optiscaler, activating overwatch would cause the game to stutter for half a second or so, everytime. Performance is a mess in that game.

Overwatch probably makes the game draw a second picture at a different size, and the mod rebuilds the model every time the size doesn't match. Two sizes taking turns = constant rebuilds, each eating video memory, until your 8 gb card runs out - hence the 20 fps. Turning nr off doesn't help because the memory is already gone. I patched the dll with сlaude help to wait ~120 steady frames before accepting a size change, and finished the whole game with nr on, no problems.
