OMG! I changed to a HDMI cable with a shielded ferrite and now the input lag is gone. I've had this input lag problem for 10 years.
Do you have grounding?
No grounding. I have a custom resolution of 640*480! I suspect that all digital monitors now have image smoothing at standard resolutions, and this processing will increase input lag.
so, cable not helped you? Or you mean you feel changes with it on lower resolution?
The DP cable I use has input lag. There is no input lag when playing games with HDMI at 640*480 resolution. There is also a slight lag when using HDMI at 1080p resolution, but it is still lower than the DP interface lag. In short, I now suspect that all this is a problem with the monitor.

it was in the monitor all the time. when you use a low resolution, the data flow is several times smaller, and accordingly the inductive interference from your walls has less effect on your cable.

From a technical point of view, the delay of using optical fiber cable may be higher because there is an additional photoelectric signal conversion. This is why the two ends of the optical fiber cable cannot be used interchangeably. I guess the problem is that the display interface uses different chip processing paths. HDMI interface equals low latency, and DP interface equals smooth picture.

i dont know. share your hdmi cable.
and try to find dp 2.1 with good shield + ferrit

I can't identify the brand because it's an HDMI cable from a very old TV.

That's not necessary. Just now it all came back. Yes, the input lag nightmare is back in full force. This means that everything I concluded was wrong. I'm very frustrated now.

disconnect that cable and take it 1-2d away, and recconect it.
what is your elec. system?

Every time I reconnect the HDMI cable, there is a short period of no input delay, but the delay returns soon. Also, what does electrical system mean?

When input lag occurs, it feels like the entire computer is in a state of miscalculation because the screen also tears. It seems that this is still related to the electricity.
