Desync in all games with new cat 8

Post by ZINZIRIO » 13 Jan 2024, 20:41

I'm going to tell you about an experience I had yesterday, I bought some white CAT 8 network cables since the ones I have are black and to make them look neater in my white room I wanted to change them, each cable is 1M from the modem to the router and from the router to the PC, I put the new good quality CAT 8 cables, I enter the game and I notice something strange... Like the enemies saw me before and I say mmm strange, it's probably my internet or something else, I leave the I enter another game and the same thing, so I promise what I thought about was the cables, I took them out, put the previous ones in and the problem was solved... I tried it 3 times and the change was instantaneous in all the games... Conclusion even though it may seem like a lie The brand or quality of the network cables you have can make a very big difference in the games, especially if you have those problems where you can't react to the enemy or something like that... Actually in my case I left the previous cables since the difference is very big.

PD: i am use traslator.

When you plug the old cable back in does it fix the issue?

I mean it's interesting that its made a difference, even if its a negative one.

But surely you just send the new one back and use the old one ? No ?

Yes exactly, I will continue using the old one, the truth is that I am a little surprised that two network cables affect the performance of a game so much.
