Can you please post your pc specifications? It's kind of hard to troubleshoot off an one-liner.

Are you using any kind of FPS config? TF2 is so unoptimized nowadays that even a decent system like yours might be better off with one.

What refresh rate does your monitor have? If you're on a 120Hz monitor and you're dropping below 120 fps might be unpleasant for your eyes and thus looking like a lagspike.

Well, if your ping is fine and your fps is fine I don't see how you would possibly have lag spikes. Lag spikes mean that either your ping goes skyhigh or your fps drops down during the fight.

I can't help you out then, sorry.

you should try capping your framerate, that could be the issue. you don't need 500 fps anyway!

Does this usually happen when you play TF2? Like your ISP getting you that poor ping? Guess it's best to call them.

I was getting a shitton of ping but I figured out it was just that my computers wifi card was bad, so now I use an ethernet cable.
