TF2 feels choppy and unresponsive during fights

I have a high end desktop with 240 hz and I capped fps around 480, was wondering if there's anything I can do to make the game feel more consistent during team fights (capping fps lower than that/uncapping it completely?)

I know there are a lot of threads open revolving around this topic but there is so much misinformation and it's hard to discern anecdotes based on personal experience from facts, I'd rather listen to people who have an understanding in this topic and not just saying tickrate x 2 or refresh rate x 2, both unsatisfying answers if not provided with a proper explanation.

The only time I had something like this is when I used to alt-tab out of the game a lot. Could that be the cause for you too?

maybe, but it doesn't seem reasonable to not alt tab if you play for a few hours straight, is there a fix for this or should I just not alt-tab?

I just stopped alt-tabbing, which isn't a great solution, but I thought until there's a better way at least it's a temporary way to fix the issue.

Ever since I uncapped my FPS it's been much better, never dips below 250fps so that helps.
