Re: [EMI] 1500mV When computer is running!!!

Your 90+% figure was quite specific, this is why I asked you to provide a source for your fact dumping. Don't take it personal nor a challenge, I'm just merely at a point where I just cannot take anyone's random claim for it's face value anymore. Linking one or 2 sources with examples would've been easy since you know where to find them.Eonds wrote: ↑26 Jan 2023, 02:55My source is every single power supply review published by toms hardware/basic electronic design. All designs of high performance devices have filtering and so does your motherboard. People who design electronics know that AC is dirty. You don't play on raw AC mains. If you have really bad motherboards & power supplies maybe it's not as good. Speaking from experience I've had awful power supplies and still didn't feel much of a difference which is why I believe it's power sag/spikes rather than interference/noise. It takes a insane amount of interference to mess with your setup. I mean so powerful to the point where it'd be obvious as to what's causing it.Thatweirdinputlag wrote: ↑26 Jan 2023, 02:40Did I mention wild fluctuations/extreme harmonics? I don't think I did, I don't even have the proper equipment to test for them, let alone the adequate electrical technical background to say so. Hence I asked the CS about what could possibly be wrong in the electric grid that might negatively effect the power supple, and since his answer was too vague I just didn't reiterate.Eonds wrote: ↑25 Jan 2023, 09:04You should be more worried about if you're actually get the proper incoming AC and not wild fluctuations/extreme harmonics (even though your PSU and motherboard filter probably 90+% or more. A true lab AC generator is probably something that could eliminate the possibility of it being specifically linked to the electricity. I think more reasonably it's linked to just poor power quality. I'm currently running my own tests. If I remember, I'll report back here with my results and opinions. Obviously 99% of you still likely have 5 billion power saving features on, unstable memory kits, ETC. But I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. If you actually have issues and you've fully eliminated the possibility of it being the software/hardware, then it's either EMI or power quality issues such as voltage droop or voltage spikes.Thatweirdinputlag wrote: ↑25 Jan 2023, 00:23True, my bad for not including my part of the conversation! I never said the problem was the PSU, I already mentioned to the CS agent that probably the electricity is causing these issues, what can go really bad in the electric grid to start effecting the PSU and its power delivery to the PC. However I did ask whether a higher quality PSU with Titanium Rating might be beneficial, he did say it will behave better but his answer was also vague and lacks foundation.
I contacted them approximately 5 months ago, when an electronics store close to me brought their Prime TX lineup. The 850W variant from that lineup would set me back about $275. The 1000W is close to $350.
Also, "Even though your PSU and motherboard filter probably 90+% or more." Source please?
Nevertheless, I'm not dismissive towards anything, I'm always open to suggestions as long as they are backed by solid reasoning/foundation and not some random disconnect/connect something and pooofff lag is gone. I'm also concerned about digging for them 5 billion power saving features when I know that the unaffected players have absolutely no inpulg or desync while not even knowing jackshit on what Bios is or how to change their OS's power from balanced to performance. I've lived through the Bios and RAM troubleshooting era, and it was quite depressing to say the least lol.
Until now, the only meaningful guaranteed way to gain back input responsiveness and get rid of the desync and stutters is to completely format the PC, not even resetting it works! A complete format using Windows Media Installation tool and a USB hard drive. Today I'll try the app Deepfreeze. I'll see how it goes, it has a trial run period, hopefully its enough to confirm whether it's a viable option. If it is, then I'll just invest another $60 into this issue and call it a day. I'll update you guys on this!
