Persistent, system-wide microstutter/jitter. Hard to diagnose

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.

Same issue here, been having this issue since 2018. I have weird stutters system wide, like when scrolling through the website in a browser or moving mouse in games, it kinda skips the frame, but FPS does not drop when that happens. Went through 3 different PCs, 3 different keyboards and mice and now purchased another monitor. My friend who purchased the same monitor and has a less beefier PC than me has no such stutters, his system feels miles smoother than mine and he also got my RTX 3090 which I previously used and can confirm it was stuttery for me.

I believe it has something to do with where you live. No matter what PC and/or laptop you bring at home, they all exhibit this same issue. I can confirm by testing my work laptop in the office and then at home, it simply stutters at home. I believe it has to with some weird shit in the air which affects all your devices at home.

completely turn off the electricity in the house. Is your laptop also slowing down?
