Unfortunately, there’s no real fix for this problem if you’re still in the same location. Even if you try the PC somewhere outside your home, you’ll only see about a 30–50% improvement because the PC has already been affected. As of now, there’s no known way to restore the PC’s performance back to 100%. Even if you move to a new place, you may still experience the same issue.

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.

Re: I have a real electricity problem
I don't think the theory that the device is faulty is correct.
Because its performance is good during late-night hours.
I remember in winter, the device worked perfectly for four whole days without any problems.

Re: I have a real electricity problem
im just an IT engineer , can't go that far in electricity , but try grounding , u have nothing to lose.unexpected8 wrote: ↑05 Jul 2026, 01:14I'm also experiencing the same problem.

and btw i do think that the improvement for some hours only ,is because, the devices didnt charge up with bad electricity, so the responsiveness was cuz ur pc / router had clean electricity for some time, then got the builded up with bad energy

Re: I have a real electricity problem
Update:
went to a store specialised in grounding here in algiers, met an old man, explained to him the issue ( didnt say input lag, just said parasites and 60v coming out my pc case)
that guy explained to me that here in algeria, 90% of houses are without grounding, and told me that he had like a lab in his office,
he installed grounding there cause without it, the machines can have a strange behaviour. and thats logic.

Re: I have a real electricity problem
I brought my bad laggy pc from old place to new place and its works normally now, same with my consoles. On the first day at the new place I saw a little bit of the old lagginess but within a few hours it was like a brand new pc. Still good after almost 4 monthsYazeedtt wrote: ↑05 Jul 2026, 02:35Unfortunately, there’s no real fix for this problem if you’re still in the same location.

Re: I have a real electricity problem
By the way, I think this might be due to the capacitors, since they store the dirty power, but if something is good, you'll see it right away. There is no such thing as the machine getting infected it doesn't exist, and it never has.

Re: I have a real electricity problem
yeah exactly.
just ur pc storing dirty electricity , and getting rid of it once u change ur location.
you can see that effect actually , unplug your pc for 1week , then play a game, u will notice something changed !
