also, Chief (not exactly sure how to tag) or any admin, if you happen to stumble across this post, would you mind moving this thread under the Input / Display / Network lag topic instead so i dont have to delete/repost? Im not sure if the bot would automatically flag my post as spam if i do so.

So, I noticed on timerbench when I have OBS open, I take a dip in FPS which is expected. However, even though the max and 99th% frame times are similar, the graph with OBS open is drastically different and is thicker. https://i.imgur.com/4dyPnth.png Does this mean with OBS open, my frame time is con...

on my z490 unify bios, unfortunately, theres no way to disable bclk spread spectrum. even if bios is set at 100, some software programs read it at 99.98 and on cpu-z it fluctuates up and down from 99.98-100.02 ish. its annoying, ive asked msi to unlock the setting in their bios, its been an issue fo...

It seems like my issue is this, https://linustechtips.com/topic/50015-windows-8-rtc-bug-isolated-fixed/ Where I must enable useplatformclock (HPET) -- but by doing so, i get much lower framerates and way higher frame times. That's a post from 2013. I would expect it to be fixed by now and the synth...

ACPI and QPC timer is always a bit quicker than my RTC timer no matter what. I noticed this when I upgraded my CPU but could not figure out why the timer drift is more noticeable compared to my old rig (pretty sure my old rig had in-sync timers). My cpu is at a stable 5.1 OC, and my old rig was als...

bcdedit /disablesynamicktick made no diffrences for me. Really you can't tell? This disables dynamic timer resolution, disabling this disables acceleration put simply. What acceleration?! It just keeps sending ticks to the system even if no events occur. When a game/app calls the system timer it sh...

There was a video done by fr33thy about timers, could give that a go.

my understanding is that fr33thy is not a reliable/credible source

can we get more of a quantitative answer backing up the claims? im not interested so much as how it "feels" to you because that's all subjective, and as i initially stated, there are dozens and dozens of thread all w/ conflicting opinions, but nothing to back that answer up. Isnt there more of a tec...

I've read dozens of threads that go many pages long that all have conflicting opinions to this day. Some say useplatformtick and getting a flat 1.0 or 0.5ms for your windows resolution timer significantly helps the responsiveness and feel of your mouse. Some say the opposite and that it only increas...

In valorant, I get 300-400+ fps. My friend insists that because I dont constantly get above 360fps, and there is no point using the 360hz monitor. He also claims that not constantly hitting 360 frames on a 360hz creates more input lag than if i were to be on a 240hz monitor instead. I was under the ...
