What worked for my electrical input lag

[MazdaSwing]

Hi guys I want to share something with you. I’ve bought a ONfilter Cleansweep 15A model almost 2 months ago now. I’ve recently came back to apex and posted a video of my recent highlights.
Like many of you I have spend a lot of time and personal money buying power conditioners, UPSs(online and line interactive), shielded power cables, optical converters and hiring electricians and utility company to look at my house. I found something that works for me finally, it might not work for you. But I am putting this out there for those who have not given up.

People want proofs like side to side, not advertisement. In case of filtering, it should be doable.
I saw people mention those filters already doing nothing, but you can't know if everyone actually knows what they are doing.

Thanks for sharing. What issues did you suffer from prior to using this filter? I've struggled with desync for years but not sure if this device would help with that.

Also, as someone else mentioned it would be awesome if you could provide some type of evidence for how this fixed your gameplay, or even just some additional comments regarding testing you did since you started using this.

I am a longtime lurker that played competitive CS 10+ years ago. I gave up competitive gaming because of this bizarre issue. Similar to OP, I've tried just about everything over the years (new computers, new peripherals, UPS, power conditioners, shielded ethernet cables, vesa-certified displayport cables, fiber-optic hdmi cables, greenwave emi filter plugs, and a ton of software-sided "fixes").

It's super random but at best, things would work optimally somewhere between 3-10 days and then it goes to shit again. I refer to this problem as that weird input lag or desync issues... On a related note, I know that audiophiles deal with similar issues in their world when it comes to noise/EMI generating unwanted sounds in their equipment, and then I learned recently that the RocketLeague community refers to this problem as the "Heavy Car Bug" - it seems like it's all connected, huh? Strange stuff.

I was recently talking to an electrician, and he was recommending that I install a dedicated circuit (with an isolated ground) to my gaming room where only my PC/monitor is plugged into it. He quoted about $1200 for this work + $400 for whole home surge protection add-on. That's a lot of money, but I was going to proceed with this until I read a few threads here where people have already tried this, and it didn't work... unfortunately.

I came across this thread today and found the ONfilter products interesting... I don't see it mentioned much at all on here or Reddit which makes me believe that the gaming community hasn't experimented much with this. I might just try it...

The problem are loose / corroded neutral wires. Pay 100$ for electrician to fix the neutral wire if you are in house (this cannot be fixed in apartments) and all your problems would disappear. I now done multiple tests and all the problems related to electricity are just wiring, it is not "dirty electricity" coming from outside - and this is why UPSs or power filters aren't really helping. High impendance when the load is too low, noisy neutral, and/or grounding loop - it is one of those 3.

And the good thing is you can fix all of this relatively cheaply if you are in house (us in apartments are just doomed) without needing to pay shit tons of money for entire re-wiring or new circuits.

Next Monday the electrician is coming to my house to run a shielded cable directly from the electrical box at the entrance to my computer. It will be a circuit separate from the rest of the house. We'll see how it goes.
