finally fixed my lag

Separate area for niche lag issues including unexpected causes and/or electromagnetic interference (ECC = retransmits = lag). Interference (EMI, EMF) of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction latencies like a bad modem connection. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI. Please read this before entering sub-forum.

finally fixed my lag

Post by crack » 04 Jul 2025, 19:46

So my problem was that I had sluggish movements and 240hz didn't look like 240hz, I played on my friend's (he has an account here, jc008titan) PC who did not have this issue, constant smoothness 24/7 and instant response, especially with his 8000hz polling rate mouse. I've tried so many tweaks I've lost count and sleep to fix this shit. The one thing I haven't changed was the power cable, I tried 2 sound cards, usb nic, swapped to NVIDIA, changed RAM. This fucking fixed it. I took the power cable from a 2007 LG Flatron L1919s I had lying around, plugged it into the PSU. I don't have lag anymore! 240hz feels like 240hz, and I'm pretty damn sure this is a permanent fix, 1 hour of gameplay later and no sign of the problem coming back.

How long should it have been? I played 1 hour and started typing this thread here. I played another 2 hours after and then went to sleep, did not feel any lag at all.

it has writing on it, "IEMMEQU NF-USE-1291-H05VV-F 3G 0.75mm² LONGWELL-P 2007", other than that it's a black Schuko C13 cable. My cable from before had no writing on it and came with my PSU, I'm guessing they cheaped out on the cable.
