Re: Acer XF250QC Strange Problem

This is the source code if it helps: https://github.com/radamar/Custom-Resolution-Utility-ToastyX/blob/master/RESET-ALL/reset-all/reset-all.c It looks like it delete's all monitor registry keys under these paths, this is where windows stores information about the monitor like scaling method, refresh...

Re: This Is How I Fixed My Input Lag

This is an issue that likely only affects AMD. Task manager should show the cache numbers for your CPU, not sure about AMD but Intel will show different caches sizes either e-cores on vs off. E-cores have an additional cache that get enabled/visible in windows when they are enabled. Reference: https...

Re: Logical Problem Solving Way

Can you see if you're getting any significant debounce latency? Some keyboards won't go lower then ~22ms on this test because of it (razer huntsman elite), the newer huntsman elite v2 can change this setting. https://blog.seethis.link/scan-rate-estimator/ The easiest way to get low results is to lig...

Re: We either looked overlooked this setting or it was bugged for years

Yea for sure! Older games typically have lower latency since the overhead is nothing on modern gaming systems so small changes perhaps more apparent?

Re: We either looked overlooked this setting or it was bugged for years

Agendarsky, Windows boosts foreground apps by default on Desktop editions of Windows, the setting you're recommending is "slightly" different than the default. The wording suggests it doesn't boost foreground apps at all, if you have better detail others would appreciate it. If it just feels better ...

Re: Logical Problem Solving Way

the closest I got to it was with this website right here https://osu-speed.simo.sh/ Question for you: 1. What is the refresh rate of the laptop? 2. Can you use the same refresh rate on your desktop gaming monitor? Repeat test on desktop. 3. What if the laptop was connected to the gaming monitor, us...

Re: Found the cause of my input lag

You can make your own bootable USB with Microsoft "bootsect", I tried writing the detailed instructions here but cloudflare thinks I'm doing command injection and blocks my post. In short copy the Windows ISO files to your formatted USB drive, run the command "bootsect /nt60 d:" (if d: is your usb d...

TC, have you tried comparing "software cursor vs hardware cursor" and "MouseTrails enabled vs disabled" in FSE? Should it make any difference in FSE?

Re: What causes a 500Hz mouse to sometimes report at 250Hz or 125 Hz?

The periodic "+1ms" that happens to incoming HID reports seems to be because Windows is sending out two USB SOF token packets when it should only be sending out only one (the traces also show my USB devices returning NAK more often that I'd expect). I'm still trying to find out why Windows is doing...
