    [SOLVED] Random blurry rectangle in corner of monitor display

    So there's this blurry rectangle in the corner of my screen that just randomly popped up while I was playing a game, I don't know if the game caused it but now it's just there. It covers up just about everything. I have tried unplugging on plugging back in my adapter but that didn't work, I...

    Question Massive FPS drops in every single game.

    So I've now come to realise that it's only with certain games, Fallout 4 and Spec Ops The Line do it, but Warframe and My Friend Pedro don't, this makes no sense to me.

    Question Massive FPS drops in every single game.

    I have no idea, this just started happening randomly, I don't know if it's actually every 2 minutes it just feels like that, all I know is that it definitely feels like it's happening at the after the same amount of time each time.

    [SOLVED] Every single game I own drops in fps when I move my mouse

    So it turns out lowering the setting to 500 fixed the problem, although I feel like I still notice a slight fps drop, I also don't understand why it all of a sudden was impacting my framerate when the polling rate had been set to 1000 since I bought the mouse

    [SOLVED] Every single game I own drops in fps when I move my mouse

    Turns out it's actually set to 1000 but polling rate checkers show the polling rate as being between 50 and 100. I'm not even sure if this is what's causing my problems as I've had these settings from day 1 and they've never caused problems before, although I don't know why my polling rate isn't...

    [SOLVED] Every single game I own drops in fps when I move my mouse

    I have a Rival 3 and no matter what game I'm playing I get this weird problem where my frames drop massively once I start moving my mouse, but when I just use my keyboard my framerate stays at a smooth 60. I've heard this can be caused by high polling but I checked out my mouses polling and it...

    [SOLVED] Firmware update for Rival 3 steelseries mouse taking longer than 12 hours

    So I started a firmware update yesterday for my Rival 3 and it still hasn't finished, the lights on the mouse are still flashing, but I don't know if there has been any progress. Is it normal for steelseries firmware updates to not have a progress bar?

    Question Massive FPS drops in every single game.

    No matter what I'm playing, even games as simple as classic doom or stardew valley all get massive fps drops and they all happen the exact same way, the games run at a smooth 60 and then every 2 minutes the frames start going all over the place dropping to like 3 fps, and when I say 2 minutes I...

    Random frame drops in anything that's got 3d graphics

    so literally no matter what game I'm playing, it has frame rate drops at random if it's got any 3d graphics what so ever, for example, beholder which is a 2d game, it doesn't matter how low the spec requirements are, even if the recommended specs are for parts from 2004, I get these frame drops...
