finally fixed my lag

IMPORTANT:
This subforum is for advanced users only. This separate area is for niche or unexpected lag issues such as electromagnetic interference (EMI, EMF, electrical, radiofrequency, etc). Interference of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction (ECC) latencies like a bad modem connection, except internally in a circuit. ECC = retransmits = lag. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI.

finally fixed my lag
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.

do you had only unsmooth issue or desync too?
