Ive tested bf3 on ultra settings 1600x900 so much mouse lag with vsync off.
Vsync on still theres a little bit of a mouse lag.
But if im tweaking some settings it improved.,but the presence of lag is still there.theres no option for triple buffering.my monitor 60 refresh rate.
What if i try my cpu on my samsung led tv,will ot improve,will i get more sharper details?

 

[eonjames]

Led tv is 32 inch.

I am guessing the TV is 1080p, if so, then yes it will look better. I am not sure what the mouse lag is caused by. Are you sure that isn't just motion blur?

 

[eonjames]

I turned off motion blur, and also turned off the integrated gpu on the bios settings dont know what's causing it. i can play bf4 on ultra settings. i have yet to try FC3, ryse son of rome and tomb raider. how can i use triple buffering? its not on the nvidia control panel,

 

[LucoTF]

It could be processing at the TV end. You said it's a samsung? Try Setup > General > game mode if it's an option on your tv

Are you connecting via HDMI?

 

[eonjames]

yup theres a game mode on my tv and im gonna use hdmi. i will see if that will eliminate mouse lag, if i use my tv.

 

[MasterDell]

The lag might be due to the response time of your monitor

 

[eonjames]

Ill try it on my tv if it eliminate the lag.gameplay is smooth.but during intense battle.the lag seems to appear more often.

 

[eonjames]

Im also thinking that my wireless mouse might also be causing input lag.but right now its good on battlefield 3. Im gonna try some tweaking so as to improve gameplay more. Is there an application where i could monitor cpu and gpu temp and fps?

 

[MasterDell]

For FPS you want to use Fraps. And for GPU temp and CPU temp you want to use Speccy.

 

[MasterDell]

Wireless mouses have huge mouse lag compared to none. Not unless it is an extremely high end wireless gaming mouse.

 

[eonjames]

mouse lag is eliminated when i changed it usb mouse, i can play battlefield 3 (finished very short game) and tomb raider (30% progress) at ultra settings. gameplay is smooth now.
no input lag anymore. cpu and gpu temps are good. i tried to use fraps for recording and it seems ok FPS is locked to 60 cause my v sync is on.but using fraps it only showed FPS, CPU and GPU temps and min-max fps doesnt show. FC3 disc seems to have a problem i cant install it.

1) Try using NVidia Shadowplay to record.
FPS drop is roughly 5% whereas FRAPS and other software solutions might be 30% or more.

2) If using HDTV make sure you use the HDTV setup in the NVidia control panel (as long as it works at 60FPS with no scaling issues you're fine).
*Some HDTV's have a "gaming" mode which you should assign to the used HDMI input. This avoids video processing on the HDTV itself which causes additional lag.

3) On HDTV I don't think you can change the resolution in-game. I think it goes by whatever you setup Windows at (such as 1080p or 768p).

4) I noticed you mentioned VSYNC as well as triple buffering when you had lag issues. You seemed to think that would help reduce lag? NO. Quite the opposite. In fact triple is worse than regular VSYNC. I agree that WIRELESS mice can have a lot of lag. I still want one but we're just not quite there yet.

5) *You may be interested at some point in the $50 Steam Link to stream gaming to HDTV's from a PC in a different room (not out yet). It should work very well though I would avoid any wireless in the loop (use Ethernet).

You simply attach your controller (or mouse + keyboard) to the Steam Link once it's attached to your network.

1. ill try shadow play, though im not really into recording and monitoring stuff, i just wanted to see how much games affects FPS.

2. Yup and thanks

3. Noted.

4. im not using my wireless mouse on my gaming needs anymore, actually ive used triple buffering on nvidia control panel it worked on me, i dont experience any lag even on intense battle anymore, i still havent try my pc on my tv yet.

5. internet here is so weak ,it might cause issue in my gaming. but thanks.
