So moving did fix it

[astroasis]

I am happy that you solved issue, congrats and have fun playing video games!!! I have loans I have to pay off and I will move out too in 3 years

It came back just recently, really don't know anymore. Doesn't even seem like electricity causing it anymore

What the fuck? How’s it even possible? Are you sure? My input lag is very obvious because I feel like I have to fight with sticks and it’s sluggish, hope it will go fuck away straight to the hell

Yep was fine when I moved in back in March. Since the start of this month my monitor became blurry again, desync, you know the usual. Sucks

[spkii]

All of this has no sense... No solution.

[astroasis]

Yeah. This started for me in 2017, so almost a decade ago. Im now 31, I guess I'll just take care of my health and hope I can play games 10 years from now lol. Hopefully lots of people get it and it becomes mainstream

Sad to hear it came back.

Think hard. What did change?

Did you change or buy new stuff (equipment)?

Did you bought new fabric or clothing?

It doesn't happen without a reason, not without something changing.

Write notes down, otherwise you will forget it.

only thing different in my room was an extra electric guitar which i play on my pc, i moved it away and my pc is smooth again, this is probably the usual thing where it gets better then comes back, I'll keep an eye on it

Sorry to hear that. I’ve moved twice as well. At first, the second place I lived made the image on my PC look less blurry and smeary than it did at my old place, but the desync was still there. Then it gradually started getting worse and worse.
Lately, I’ve tried a few BIOS tweaks and switched to a fiber-optic HDMI cable. Things seem a little better, but they’re still nowhere near perfect. I also tried fiber Ethernet, but it made absolutely no difference.
The worst-case possibility is that it’s somehow coming from my own body… sigh.

Hello guys I'm from Sri Lanka possibly the country with shit garbage electricity infrastructure. My method might fix your problem

I can help you fix your problem as much as I can. First of all, I don't do this for money; if my method doesn't solve people's input lag problems, they'll call me a scammer. I'm also not working for any company to promote products; I just share what method fixed my problem and what might fix theirs.
This anomalous input lag and desync is incredibly hard to diagnose and fix. In my case, the input lag was mainly caused by conducted EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) on the live, neutral, and ground wires, too much AC offset on my AC mains, and high ground resistance. My country's electricity infrastructure is very bad. Our grid uses non-insulated, unshielded wires that pick up all kinds of EMI noise from the air because unshielded electrical wires basically act as antennas. Furthermore, my country lacks EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) regulations, so people use cheap devices that generate very high EMI, injecting noise directly into the power grid. That EMI noise then enters my house and pollutes my PC, monitor, TV, phone chargers, and everything else. My house also had cheap LED lights that injected high EMI, so I replaced them all with low-EMI models.
There are two types of EMI. The first is conducted EMI, which travels through our AC wires. The second is airborne or radiated EMI, which travels through the air. When we use unshielded cables, they pick up this airborne noise, corrupting both power and signal cables. Fortunately, I don't have much airborne EMI. However, I did have a high DC offset on my AC mains caused by my neighbors' cheap electrical appliances. Using an OnFilter CleanSweep EMI filter and a good-quality DC blocker fixed my issue.
I'm currently helping a friend from Spain. I recommended an OnFilter and a DC blocker to him. He bought them and told me that the setup improved his mouse input by a lot, though it is still not perfect. I think he might have other issues causing his lag. He mentioned that disconnecting his wireless headphones made the mouse input a little better. I also recommended that he use shielded AC power cables and signal cables to protect against airborne EMI, and he told me that using a shielded AC power cable improved his mouse response even more.
Before spending money on these things, I highly recommend trying software-side fixes first, because the OnFilter CleanSweep EMI filter is not cheap. My unit cost $690 plus $120 shipping, and with a 68% import tax, it cost me over $1,000 total due to the high taxes in my country. DC blockers and shielded cables are expensive as well. We need to find what is causing your problem first; after that, fixing it is easy.
The ultimate electrical input lag fix is powering your PC and monitor directly on DC power. Our PCs and monitors run natively on DC power, and their PSUs simply convert AC power to DC. By running your PC on DC power, you completely isolate it and the monitor from the polluted AC grid. To do this, we need to use an HDPLEX 600W or 800W DC-to-DC ATX PSU. It supports 12V to 63V DC electricity. It lacks a modern 12VHPWR or 12V-2x6 connector, but we can use an adapter. We should pair it with a 12V, 24V, or 48V LiFePO4 battery (24V and 48V are better). Since the HDPLEX PSU works between 12V and 63V DC, you can just plug-and-play with any battery in that range.
Running monitors on DC is a little bit trickier because some monitors run on 12V, some run on 19V, some use external power adapters, and others use internal ones. If you use a 24V or 48V DC battery, you can power monitors that require 12V or 19V by using a buck converter to step down the voltage, and then use a DC power cable to run the monitor directly. However, even this setup might not fix your problem if you have an underlying software issue. So, try software and hardware troubleshooting first.
For context, I'm using an RTX 3080 (I also have an XFX RX 6800 XT Merc 319), an i7-13700KF, G.Skill 2x32GB 6800MHz RAM, an MSI Z790i Edge WiFi motherboard, and a Corsair RM1000x PSU. When my PC draws less than 600 watts, the mouse input feels a little bit less responsive. Because of this, I always max out the graphics settings in all my games to force my GPU to draw more power. I'd like to buy a more powerful GPU like a 5080, but my country's economy is terrible right now, so I can't afford it.
If your PC draws 450 watts at maximum, it will probably draw less than 400 watts while gaming, which means your PSU is definitely running in its idle/low-efficiency mode. Try using a good-quality 550W or 650W PSU instead. Get a used one to save money. As far as I know, the Be Quiet! Pure Power 13 M 650W ATX 3.1 is the best 650W PSU available, so I recommend that.
The majority of people experiencing this issue live in countries that use 220V/50Hz, 230V/50Hz, and 240V/50Hz power grids. People in countries using 110V/60Hz to 120V/60Hz don't seem to have this problem as much. I personally think some PSUs just perform worse on 50Hz grids, though I could be wrong. There are actually some PSUs specifically made for Europe that only accept 200V to 240V.
For now, try plugging your keyboard into your motherboard's top USB port and your mouse into the bottom USB port. Do not plug anything else into the motherboard. Play for a few hours to see if your mouse response improves, and use a Wi-Fi connection instead of ethernet

Yeah this sucks...well time to try a grounding mat!

I love tin foil theories but this shit isn’t funny tho XD I hope I have this issue because of shit electricity and that’s it(I have shit electric wiring btw) Next week maybe I will go to gaming cafe, I supposed to do it earlier but I didn’t do it.

Can you check if you have Realtek Audio Service enabled in the start up apps? You can also check by bringing up realtek audio console and see if the app starts up. I think you must keep this enabled while you try out new things. I believe a part of the ghost lives here in the audio subsystem.
