Okay,
I've never experienced this issue previously.
I'm playing Valorant and I notice what seems like network connection issues. Not frame drops... my FPS never spike or dip.
For a while, I believe my issue is network issues, but I can't figure out why. I have 300+ mbps download.
And then all of a sudden I notice this issue isn't just taking place in game! I can be on my blank desktop without a single application open... just moving my mouse around the screen or casually browsing the internet. The mouse starts lagging around when I move it (it seems like a massive frame drop in just my mouse if that makes sense).
And it is inconsistent. Sometimes it happens nonstop... sometimes it's like there has never been a problem.
It is so strange and SOOOOO annoying.
That is probably my best initial explanation of the issue I am seeing. Now I will explain the troubleshooting I have done to try and diagnose the issue.
The first thing I did was unplug my wireless mouse's dongle and plug it back in... simple but no luck.
Next, I switched the mouse's battery... no solution.
Next, I switched the mouse in general to another wireless mouse with a different dongle. No solution the other mouse does the same exact thing.
At this point, I decided my issue wasn't specific to the mouse itself.
Then I went to the drivers. I entirely uninstalled the Logitech g hub. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Windows mouse drivers. No luck.
Uninstall and reinstall graphics drivers. Nothing.
Frustrated I said whatever and ENTIRELY reset my computer...
usb windows media installation -> whip all my existing drives -> fresh install on my 1tb samsung 980 pro.
Everything seems fine I get Valorant, discord, and a few other programs installed maybe steam. Everything works fine for a while no mouse lag... things are smooth.
And then all of a sudden, open my computer, and BAM there it is again. Just browsing the internet nothing taxing. MOUSE LAG
Okay, now I test hardware.
Samsung ssd magician diagnostic test... says drive is all good.
Intel CPU diagnostic test... passes all tests.
Windows built-in memory test... does full reboot test and comes back with no errors.
The most annoying part is that this happens inconsistently from what I can tell. It's random and I can't pin it down to fix it.
I have exhausted everything I could think of to be causing the issue. Now I turn it over to the experts... ask away I will try my best to explain anything further.
Thank you in advance.
