Re: 240 hz feels like 60 hz, high fps, choppy image, not smooth

I dont know much about AMD, but u can try, it still windows, i dont think it can harm your computer.

What you mean by saying your main suggestion? Did something new change youd mentioned recently around your house? Like changing cables or transformers or something like that by PoCo? Or new building near you?Iserverthefirelord wrote: ↑04 Apr 2023, 16:31Hey, I have AMD CPU not Intel. Thanks for suggestion. Anyway it's kinda fixed now, I don't know what exactly helped but what I've experienced was:
1) several outages in my area, probably PoCo guys have "fixed" it involuntarily (my main suggestion so far lol)
2) tried blurbusters gsync 101 guide (235 fps lock, vsync on, gsync on, latency off (iirc), reflex on (when possible) etc)
3) updated my mouse firmware (I have Razer Viper 8k fyi, 1.02 was a mess for me, I rolled back to 1.01 version, there is a guide on yt how to do it, then I updated to new v1.03 & it's good now)
4) updated BIOS, tweaked things like CPPC/preferred cores, OC'd RAM to 16-19-16-16 3600mhz, played with PBO a bit (left it on Enabled anyway)
5) updated AMD Chipset drivers to new 5.xx.xx version instead of 4.xx, Nvidia driver to 531.29 version
6) reinstalled w11 instead of w10, installed latest updates, I've also seen guys saying newest insider(?) build has major improvements for input lag, so it should be out soon as well
Maybe something else, but it's too minor to recall. I think it was either electricity/PoCo issue, or software issue, who knows.
BTW I still have some weird, barely perceivable issue, which is - when I'm moving mouse fast enough, whole game (e.g. Battlefield V, R6 Siege) becomes crispy, like it's 60 fps, BUT !! if I stop flicking, aiming moving mouse etc. game is butter smooth again.
Whole gameplay is smooth, all animations, mouse movement, hitreg, everything is fluid now. No stuters, no extra frametimes, no lag/spikes, no fps drops, just for the record.
Only this dumb issue aka "not smooth when moving mouse fast" still annoys me. Don't know what's causing it. And it's most visible in FPS games, in games like Civ or ARPG's it's tolerable. Mouse is at 1000 hz btw, changing to 500 doesn't help much.
Am I missing something still? Or I'm just losing my mind with all these lags lol
Yeah my main suggestion is "dirty electricity" which poco guys have fixed somehow after the outages. Maybe changed wiring, equipment, anything else. I'm living in Eastern EU so it's possible. But that's offtopic at least for this forum branch.loccomacco wrote: ↑04 Apr 2023, 22:13What you mean by saying your main suggestion?

Btw the way you talk, from my experience, I can bet your problems will come back soon or later, I've had the same experience for just a month or two, but I hope yours remain.

Had "dirty electricity" issue in previous house, moved here, completely other area far away from old house, and it was still not good, something was off. Right now though it's pretty much acceptable. Hope it stays that way.
It's complete off topic, but yeah I've stumbled upon this issue twice it looks like.loccomacco wrote: ↑05 Apr 2023, 15:52Another proof of dirty electricity existenceIserverthefirelord wrote: ↑05 Apr 2023, 03:47Yeah my main suggestion is "dirty electricity" which poco guys have fixed somehow after the outages.

Oh my Lord, you should've mentioned it before, I mean about hospital/police station and about not affected by power outage. Your case should move to EMI topic, to prove EMI and dirty electricity by PoCo.Iserverthefirelord wrote: ↑05 Apr 2023, 16:07It's complete off topic, but yeah I've stumbled upon this issue twice it looks like.loccomacco wrote: ↑05 Apr 2023, 15:52Another proof of dirty electricity existenceIserverthefirelord wrote: ↑05 Apr 2023, 03:47Yeah my main suggestion is "dirty electricity" which poco guys have fixed somehow after the outages.

My friend who lived 0.5km away from me had this issue as well. I took my whole rig to him & tested everything for hours. Exact same crap.
But in my parents' house it's perfectly fine and always have been. As I've discovered later, their house is connected to some hospital/police station so they have "cleanest" electricity possible. And recent outages haven't affected them in any way. Guess some objects and houses are connected to these "good" "dedicated" power grids and are perfect for gaming.
BTW can mods close this topic or move it to electricity forum? I'm grateful for your help guys, now issue is gone it looks like, it's been a month.
Your welcome. Learnt it hard way haha. Hope it helps somebody. But yeah some places are "naturally" good if not perfect for gaming because electricity there is "pure".loccomacco wrote: ↑05 Apr 2023, 16:17Oh my Lord, you should've mentioned it before, I mean about hospital/police station and about not affected by power outage.

Btw your case thanks to you, proved something in my mind too
Hey, try taking your rig to other place for testing, or buy/rent power station, powerful enough to feed your rig. No other way to check it. Also everyone's case is different, keep in mind. My solution might not work for you or any other guy, or vice versa.Otter wrote: ↑09 May 2023, 19:03Hey! Ive had the literal exact same issues for around 8 months now. Much like you ive tried sooo many things to fix it to no avail. I cant get a exact solution through all of the replies.
Could you maybe give me the top 1-5 things that helped you the most in the smoothness aspect?
Thank you in advance
