Question Mouse randomly starts feeling delayed and Floaty

[nxrthlies]

So I found the same thing the guy posted in 2019:https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/mouse-randomly-starts-feeling-delayed-and-floaty.3538821/
Literally the same thing happens to me that happens to him since a few days. I will add that the floaty sens starts after sitting on the pc for a few hours and it occurs ONLY in games, on the desktop it does not occur. Is there any explanation for this, why does it happen?
I will also add that two months ago I replaced some parts in the computer + did a windows reset.
The best part is that after resetting pc mouse sens returns to normal, but after a few hours it occurs again, and so on and so forth. It appears in every game.

specs:
Ryzen 7 3800X
Gigabyte B550DS3H
Kingston Fury DDR4 2x8 3200Mhz
RTX 2060 Super
1TB HDD
500GB SSD
1TB SSD M2

thanks in advance for any help

There are three tools that may help discover what is happening when the floaty sensation occurs:

Task Manager, Resource Monitor, and Process Explorer (Microsoft, free).

Use all three tools but only one tool at a time.

Open the tool window, leave it open, and position the window so you can watch what is happening on your PC.

First watch without gaming. Then open a game leaving the tool window viewable. Game as usual but watch the tool window for some change that occurs when the mouse becomes "delayed" and "floaty".

And changes again when the mouse goes back to normal.

Likely the process will take a bit of trial and error to work through.

The objective being to discover what changes when the problem occurs.

Things to look for: some background process launching to update, backup, or simply "phone home".

Task Scheduler may be being triggered and launching some app or utility.

You can also look in Reliability History/Monitor for any error codes, warnings, or informational events that start and/or stop with the mouse behavior changes.

Reliability History/Monitor is end user friendly and the timeline format may reveal some pattern.

I will leave the computer open and let you know when this problem comes up.
so far nothing is happening

Edit. What about a new disk? After I bought a m2 SSD I moved all my games to this very drive and there were a lot of comments under the page of this drive about overheating. Could it be caused by this?

the only pattern i see in resource monitor is when i toggle dpi (thats when the mouse movement feels normal for a few seconds) shellExperienceHost disappears from the top of my cpu list for a moment then comes back. it would disappear when i click the dpi button again thats one pattern so far.

Try running the built-in Windows troubleshooters. The troubleshooters may find and fix something.

Then try "dism" and "sfc /scannow".

No need to do anything - just look for what else may be running.

Also check via Process Explorer .

i tried doing the built in fixes but at this point it HAS to be a service from windows running in the background i just dont know which service it could be.

i also feel like it works in safemode but i cant really tell since i play on 144 but safemode is 60Hz

 

[Ralston18]

First play in safemode (60) and watch Process Explorer (or one of the other tools) very carefully.

Boot as normal (144) and keep everything the same. Play again while watching Process Explorer.

It may be easier to start with Task Manager and work via the available menu choices: Processes, Performance, App history, etc...

Note the small upward or downward pointing " > " in the column headers when the column is selected. The data being show in those columns can be sorted.

Hopefully you will be able to discover some change that corresponds with the ocurrence of the "floaty feeling".
