For like 2 years my pc was lag free and about 2 months ago I started having issues. The issues would consist of small ms spikes during video games but they have gotten increasingly worse to the point that playing competitively is impossible. I have tried numerous things to fix this, but so far none have helped.
I tried replacing my usb wireless adapter, I tried changing all kinds of settings and values in the computer settings, I have tried disabling all programs running in the background to narrow problems down, I have tried using glasswire, I have tried switching to ethernet, I have tried using different internet networks as well, and I have cleaned my pc and components thoroughly (hasnt been abused or anything either)
Another computer on the same network played the same games without any issues.
Is there some piece of hardware on my computer that could be malfunctioning? it seems like it to me, since i was lagging on ethernet for goodness sakes. Open to any ideas i am frustrated
