Hello everyone. Hope everyone is well. I've come to say that my USB ports that my mouse is connected to keeps relaying sluggish mouse movements like 70% of the time. I'm not sure why, but sometimes a PC restart as well as changing my USB port of my mouse receiver may fix it. I bought a new mouse in hopes that it may fix it, but no clue why this is happening. I have done a lot to try to fix this issue such as reinstalling USB hub, drivers and updating intel chipset, overclocking Ram hz, buying a new mouse and a bunch of other solutions that never panned out.

This is a newly built PC, only a year old with the following Specs attached.

I hope this is enough information! Please and thank you for taking the time to read my post.

The two different mice I use are Logitech Superlight X - 1 and newly bought Razer Viper v3.
The DPI I have been using is around 3000 to 3800. (wireless mice with USB-C wired connecters to charge them).

You have another USB controller onboard. I suggest using a USB 2.0 header to attach additional rear ports to it

The reason is USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 operates at 2.5Ghz spread-spectrum and is known to interfere with 2.4GHz unless heavily shielded. And none of your devices require this kind of speed so just don't use it. USB 2.0 operates at 240MHz which doesn't interfere with 2.4GHz.
interesting. thank you for this information! and the response. I'm not sure if you did read everything or not...But Are you positive that it is in fact interference?
