How I solved my particular input lag,floaty mouse,desync, degraded visuals problem

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.

I’m not debating anyone’s personal experience — I’m saying the pattern repeats under specific electrical conditions.

Users like menzukii and others have confirmed full resolution after correcting neutral-to-earth bonding issues or using battery/DC isolation (LiFePO₄ setups). The grid quality angle is not new — phasing imbalance, harmonic distortion, and floating neutrals are measurable and correlate directly with the “day vs night” behavior many describe.

Moving around doesn’t disprove it either — distribution transformer grounding varies street by street, not by country. You can move 10 or 20 times and still end up under a weak or poorly bonded neutral. If your N–E voltage drifts several volts under load, that’s your first red flag.

Since you’ve been dealing with this for over a decade across multiple PCs, grids, and ISPs — what do you think the root cause is, if not electrical instability?

And btw, have you seen that video of s1mple where he explains that after moving to a new apartment, he suddenly started having issues — like as if somebody had hacked his PC? He was dying around corners, getting Ferrari peeked, completely out of sync in both Valorant and CS. He got hardstuck in Valorant Dia and was performing in tournaments and matches so poorly that the org had to step in to figure out what was wrong.

Then there’s another clip of him talking in the background during a stream — you can hear people (tech) at his apartment telling him he has to move immediately because there’s a power issue in the new place that’s causing the problem. He moved out right away and his performance went back to normal. The community laughed at him, thought he was making excuses — and he proved them wrong.


I’m not saying there aren’t other contributing factors, but it’s clear that for some of us, this is absolutely tied to electricity — especially when we’re measuring 8–10V or more between Neutral and Earth.

Ok Mezuki and who are others? Can you give me a link to his profile? or FACEIT? If he really solved this problem then he should have massive change in K/D/A. Need some proof. I can't trust people here for a good reason- I caught so many users here lying. How many people here have claimed that UPS, Power Conditioner, Solar Panels, Diesel Generators & Greenwave EMI/EMF filters are a solution only to be proven wrong time and time again. People wasted so much money listening to liars and shills here. I don't know what is the cause just know that it is an anomaly that we don't know anything about. S1mple was trolling people he was never serious about this. He was joking about using Iron to improve his gameplay lol. Where is the original clip of him saying that?Clickbait youtuber who feeds on content like that is not a proof.

" distribution transformer grounding varies street by street, not by country. " Sorry this makes no sense. I moved across two different continents and several different countries. Not streets. And again for the last time, it was not just me who moved but bunch of other users as well. The chances of moving to 80 different apartments and this is not counting other users because I can't vouch for them but the likehood of this problem being present in 80 different places is close to zero. You are completely wrong and delusional- Or maybe you are a genius and this problem is so widespread that every second person has it. If that is the case I will come here and apologize and hope you be a man and do the same in few years when you figure out that I was right and that you were wasting your time.

And yet you fail to explain why isn't 't everyone in your country affected with this then, its only YOU (and one your friend) who move 100 apartments with 100 PCs, and still have problems. If 15 out of 15 places are affected, then this would be a very common issue, and millions and millions of people would be affected - and yet we are here in a sub-section "off topic, niche issues", instead of some mainstream forum with 10,000+ users reporting those issues. Why?

And this with S1mple talking about iron isn't trolling - if I plug iron into any wall socket I can actually see a difference during daytime. Same with turning on an electric oven or kitchen hood. It's either because they are on the same phase / circuit and are somehow interacting like that, or because they eat up harmonics and EMI, instead of your PC.

It is 100% caused by some kind of electrical issue, but if you want to you can still deny it for another 10 years, and instead search the culprit in some magical stuff emitting from your body, or your gaming chair, or mouse pad. Did you actually get a professional to check your neutral wires, grounding, or harmonics levels at any of the places? How much voltage do you have in your socket, is it lower than it should be (in Europe, we have 230V for example)? How many electricians checked your house and did some tests so you can be so confident that the issue is not electrical?

You either have reading comprehension skills of a 12 year old or you just have poor understanding of English. Not gonna bother with someone lying and flipping my words over. Bye.

I moved to 15 different locations and combined with a friend from Denmark close to 30 different places together. I can confirm once we moved to this place that had a gaming transformer all of our issues went away. Don't give up you just have to keep moving to different places and don't listen to trolls who claim that if you move to 30+ different places that it is statistically impossible to keep having this problem. Just unlucky keep moving and hope you get a non-floating gaming transformer.
What do you mean by gaming transformer ?

If you mean stepdown transformer your home/street uses

So let me get this straight — you’ve moved across countries, used multiple PCs, motherboards, GPUs, ISPs, and still have the exact same desync… but it’s definitely not electricity?

Interesting. Because at that point, the only constants left are the power grid and you. If it’s not electrical, then congratulations — you’ve discovered a new law of physics where desync follows a person around the planet.

Realistically, though, that kind of repeatability across so many independent setups proves it’s not random hardware or placebo. Either there’s a systemic electrical factor that keeps reappearing (which actually happens more often than people think), or the issue is entirely subjective perception. There’s no third option.

Exactly, but the dude still refuses to accept that the problem is electrical, even though he admitted that he's known for a decade that running well at night means overloaded electrical grid, but then, the electricity somehow isn't the problem according to him, it must be some other magic that appears just during the day.

And there are still no answers regarding the laptop test - because, you know what, he shockingly discovered that the laptop works like a charm on batteries, but if you plug it directly into a wall outlet, it works like shit again... which would lead to another shocking discovery, that the problem is indeed electrical.

Boom, I start the PC on battery power.. and.... nothing.

Well you can't explain that to a low IQ person that uses ChatGPT and still can't write a coherent sentence. Poor guy thinks he will solve the problem by playing on a laptop. HAHAHAHA. About 15 years late discovery.

Then go get some exorcist, because the input lag is following you around, just like someone above told you...it's your body dude, its TOTALLY not electricity lmao.

For 95% of other people with those problems, laptop works just fine as long as it's not plugged into the wall, but since the input lag is following your body, it will affect everything you touch...there is nothing else you could do, move some more cables and move to another 20 locations, maybe you will find an apartment that isn't affected by the shit electrical grid in your country, which is probably overcrowded and have like 1 transformer substation for 10,000 people.

And since the input lag is lagging behind you, and it takes up to 3 days to catch up (you said it works flawlessly for a few days, before the problem returns every time), then just move to a new house every 3 days, and the input lag will never catch you up...problem solved.
