Yes you’ve read the title.
I tested 6+ PC’s, internets monitors etc etc etc etc etc etc for the last 3 years. Any PC i connected in my house made it stutter instantly… and “forever”
Nothing I did even HELPED my PC one tiny bit. It seemed as once I plugged my PC into my outlet it “stuttered” forever. Nothing I would do would help the stutters.
Until now.
I bought a double conversion UPS. Let it sit plugged into my outlet and plugged my PC into it for the first week-2 I had it. I noticed a big difference but it just wasn’t there yet… I also have a power conditioner.. After couple weeks I was like let me connect my power conditioner to outlet, then my UPS connected to it. My regular UPS didn’t do anything. Double conversion on the other hand.. that’s why. IT HAS TO BE DOUBLE CONVERSION.
So at first I noticed a massive difference once I plugged those 2 in.. I could actually like play..? Stutters here and there.. but dude.. first time in 3 years something I did actually helped the stutters. Now, I was wondering hey.. could my PC just be messed up from all these tweaks I’ve tried..? I’ve literally changed so many settings lol and my windows wasn’t reset in years. I was thinking about resetting windows but its such a hassle so I didn’t.
A couple days goes… Then my Fortnite client was bugging. This weird anti cheat thingy wasn’t letting me install it.. people online said its such a hassle just easier to reset ur PC.. so I was like ok I was thinking about resetting it days ago and didn’t wanna keep trying to fix this anti cheat bug so I reset windows…
Once done, i didn’t touch nothing. Just downloaded Fortnite to see if it lets me boot, it does.
I enter the game. Bit stuttery ( cause Fortnite has shader compilation you have to let it build up) but couple games later… SMOOTH. Literally haven’t felt it like this in 3 YEARS. WTF? I play I play I play and omg… I can actually play. (My fortnite used to be insanely stuttery, non stop damn stutters, unplayable) It was a blessing. New season, OG, and I can actually play.
I hop on PUBG.. same thing.. I CAN ACTUALLY PLAY.. bit stutters here and there but nothing horrible like before. Just non stop, unplayable. Now PUBG is extremely unoptimized and my CPU is also outdated cause I never bothered upgrading it but it’s still a lowkey beast. But man, it feels like I don’t even have this issue anymore. I can play like I did 3 years ago.
So yeah. I know whats its like dealing with this BS. This stuff is stressful, takes a hit on your mental health.. it really sucks. I know how it feels.
THIS IS NOT AN INPUT LAG ISSUE. IF YOU HAVE INPUT LAG THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. This is for people where you only suffer stutters and your game never feels better no matter what time of day it is and nothing you do helps.
Please do not cram the thread regarding input lag. You guys have a million threads. Regarding this issue it’s extremely hard to find threads like this.
If anyone has questions you can leave your discord or ask here.
Power conditioner: Furhman M-8x2
UPS: Tripp Lite SU1500XL.
Now.. I used to think my PC was “infected” and honestly reading online I do believe peoples stuff does get perm damaged, but unless you leave your PC at a “clean” location for like a few days then your test is meaningless. You should let it sit at a clean spot for awhile.
Now if you follow my setup and you still stutter. Try buying a prebuild you can return easily, like costco, bestbuy etc. NEVER LET IT TOUCH YOUR OUTLET. Always connect it to the DOUBLE CONVERSION UPS. I say again, DOUBLE CONVERSION. Not sinewave, not line interactive. But a DOUBLE CONVERSION.
These things can get pricey. You can try finding a 2nd hand one without batteries and buy the batteries yourself. Batteries for mine cost around $32 CAD each, plus shipping which isn’t bad at all.
Anyways, im here if anyone has any questions.
Also I ask nicely, please don’t over take this thread with input lag problems, you guys have a million threads regarding the issue and only a handful regarding this issue myself and a few others have.. I truly wish you guys luck into finding a fix for it.
