No FPS gaming possible

Everything about latency. This section is mainly user/consumer discussion. (Peer-reviewed scientific discussion should go in Laboratory section). Tips, mouse lag, display lag, game engine lag, network lag, whole input lag chain, VSYNC OFF vs VSYNC ON, and more! Input Lag Articles on Blur Busters.

This is completely beside the point. I can 100% rule out default/OC as the cause.

Current status:
- My shots are much more accurate (not 100%, but 90%)
- I still die extremely quickly (I don't have the option to get to safety like other players)
- Other players see my moves in advance (as if they were wallhackers, which they aren't)
- Despite low ping (e.g., 12ms), others can take me out so quickly that I don't understand what happened
- I often find myself at a huge disadvantage against console players (which is ridiculous)

PS: I'm not the best player in the world, but I'm often at the top of the list or at least in the top 3.

Games:
- Escape from Tarkov
- BF2042

Surely, you must also know this then:
RTP_Dev wrote: Karhu is just dumb hashing, it’s not a real ramtest, you can see that in source code. TM5, Cruncher and RTP are entirely different (though TM5 and RTP might be somewhat similar since they are both actual ramtests)

here’s a very similar project to Karhu: https://github.com/lordmulder/MemoryChecker
this one is better because it doesn't test your page file, I checked. Karhu has issues with that, it might stressing your ssd instead of your ram.

aida64 is more effective than karhu for ddr5

mem tests rarely put a heavy load on the cpu, so it's unlikely that a memory test crashes because of an unstable cpu. But I have a great recent example with a degraded i5-9600K, something went wrong with core0 AGU or its cache died. RTP was throwing 1000 multibit errors within a couple of minutes, while other tests like TM5, Karhu, MTP reported zero errors. RTP only became stable when the ring was slow to 1.5ghz. So yeah, looks like something related to address errors.
Something similar happens with Intel's 13 & 14 gen.
I'm not entirely sure why I'd value your opinion over the opinion of a RAM stress-testing application software developer, who's aware of things more than you in this regard?
Karhu is bad, end of story.

As for your issue, I primarily think it's a ISP routing issue, which you can only solve by finding a FTTH solution from a ISP in your area in Germany...
If you want to troubleshoot the possibility of hardware affecting your gameplay (non-zero chance that it's the case), try running fixed clock rate & vcore along with XMP disabled.
Asssuming you find a good balance balance of clock rate & vcore, that should iron out any potential issues caused by RAM.
Considering that you come from a extreme overclocking background where synthetic benchmark scores are chased over "stability" and data integrity... I cannot trust you on your assessments.
Minimizing jitter from improper hardware tuning is usually on the opposite side of extreme overclocking.

If you want to attempt XMP, RamTestPro + Furmark or a different GPU load for at minimum 12 hours.
Other stress tests such as YCruncher, HCI MemTest (same as RunMemTestPro), TM5 with different configs can be beneficial in ironing out any quirks.
P95 small FFT's, OCCT, Linpack w/ newer libs may be adequate for making sure your CPU is fine.

I found one screenshot for you from back then. I tested the whole thing for a week using various tools. I could send you 20 screenshots, but that won't help me here.

It makes no difference whether I overclock the system or not. The problem remains. It's not an overclocking or stability issue.

It's possible that it's the ISP.

I'm with Vodafone. I have a cable connection, and the values ​​look good. Only on the DOCSIS 3.1 upload channel do I have strong fluctuations in the modulation (32QAM, 64QAM, 128QAM, 256QAM, and 512QAM). Sometimes it changes every few seconds and minutes. In the Vodafone forum, they say it's not a problem.

The games don't show me any problems like packet loss or anything like that.

We have fiber optic cable on the street (to the box), but nothing in the house. Unfortunately, that will take some time.

I'm currently trying everything I can to prevent my system from buffering or lagging. So far, this is the only approach that's made any noticeable improvements.

there huge chance we both might be in same boat with our problems...

cause everything sounds very much similar (symptoms) to what i experience since many years already too here at this place and location cause even another apartment don't help me to see anything on improvement or just any difference and no matter in which direction...


are LTE still make difference for you or it was just something random that work only for some moment and after everything become same bad ? :lol:

my story similar to yours but only that i was very long 1und1 customer and always feel very fine with that and even after moved but then after some years everything started and still to these days...

after i tried already all possible too but still with nothing that could tell and point me to where the issue 100% is and what happened back then when everything become shit for me in online gaming and from the first moment i start to notice all the bad...

I dont know honestly how we can help each other with our "problems" but here a Telekom Forum but maybe you already saw and read it ?

https://telekomhilft.telekom.de/convers ... 61da960925

Guys talking there too about all kind of problems with Online Gaming and at the end pages @User5and1 says that he had success improvement and night day difference by go to O2 with his DSL and says cause peering... to some games and servers ? idk rly...im not an expert in that area...


I have here O2 too but only LTE and no difference improvement but maybe if i try O2 too on my DSL line in this location will do anything but at this point im already lost all hope and not more 100% sure about anything...


Like there no much more choice left of providers at my place for me and im right now with Vodafone too and it seems players have it much worse in Telekom too like in that example Telekom Forum above... :lol:


That why i already lost all hope and dont much more believe if another provider change gonna help rly...

Are this you? :D
No, I don't know this website. I only read the first post and yes, the problems seem very similar.

I have no experience with LTE (smartphone? stick?) or with 1&1. Only with Telekom (2 years) and Vodafone (3-4 months).

I think I might be able to fix my problem with Windows/hardware (network card).

Online games aren't a difficult topic. I'm talking purely about the connection between client and server. The UDP packets are very small, but there are a lot of them. Each stream represents a greater load. However, it's possible that UDP packets are being bundled (bad) or held back or buffered (bad).

I've also experimented with Clumsy. Nothing helps.

crazy...
i was for sure that this guy are you but looks like you have a brother in BF2042 and in germany who suffers similar problems... :lol:

What can I say? It's crazy that there are two BF2042 players with the same problems in a country with 90 million inhabitants. Truly crazy.

If you want, I'm the only BF2042 and FIFA player in the world for you.
