Hey! I have been having a really weird lag on my pc for months and it quite literally ruined my esports career. At startup everything is good but after 5 minutes i start lagging and everything. I tried literally every solution i found on the internet, new mouse, complete reinstallation of windows, countless registry edits everything. And it still doesnt go away. I went to a pc shop and after some tests on the pc they said its the psu. I replaced it today but still same problem. $80 out of the window and lag remains.

i wouldn't even expect anything but trouble out of any $80 power supply.
what is the make & model?

this can be caused by many components.

what exact tests did this shop perform?
what was their explanation as to why they believed it was the power supply?

i wouldn't dare call it a "career" if you can't even afford to replace the system you're using and $80 seems like such a loss.

Be quiet pure power 11 500w

And you know,not everyone can afford a 100+$ psu and idk what my financial status has to do with esports :)


And the computer shop uses a multimeter to test the voltages and it wasnt quite good

what someone may be able to afford, or are willing to save up for, in regards to a power supply determines if they want to risk their whole investment in the entire system or if they want a reliable trustworthy build.

the Pure Power 11 500w happens to be a fairly rated PSU that usually lists at ~$105.
if you happened to find a new one under one of their current sales then that is a decent unit.

idk what my financial status has to do with esports
if you have a "career" in eSports then that means you are traveling to tournaments, winning prizes, and acquiring sponsors.
this would support any needs related to this career and be what actually determines this as a "career".

if it is just a hobby participated in at home with no further involvement then that is definitely not a career.

and what did they use to test all other components?
did they transfer to a known working machine and try them one by one?

Cpu: Intel core i5 10400f
Gpu: Nvidia geforce 1050ti
16gb ram
Psu: Be quiet pure power 11 500w
we still require the full system specs of all included components to take this much further.
you haven't mentioned make & model of:
RAM,
CPU cooling,
Case; + cooling,
GPU; is this 3rd party manufacture or Nvidia branded,
storage devices,
any 3rd party cable mods, etc,
+ all connected devices.
