FPS breaks from 200-20 every-time my mouse is moved.

My game has been experiencing extreme lag spikes and horrible performance the past 2 days. I recently tried overclocking my GPU and RAM only to realize that caused more issues than good so I then reset it back to default values. However after this, my pc proved to never be the same. The main issue is that my FPS drops whenever my mouse is moved. After some testing I’ve determined that this issue is only prevalent in games that are more CPU reliant (osu!, Valorant, etc) whilst games that run more on a GPU load work fine (Overwatch, Fortnite, etc). I would appreciate if someone helped me with my issue or help me disprove my hypothesis and get to the bottom of it.

Worth mentioning that these issues weren’t here until 3-4 days ago.

I’ve been using this mouse since last year around December 15 and it hasn’t ever had an issue.

My entire setup is on the more budgeted side, GTX 1050ti, Ryzen 5 3200g, 16GB Ram 2667mhz (default) 500watt PSU though the brand is suspiciously lacking in information and a B450MH motherboard. Nope

so maybe it's just wearing down? and getting slower?
res

Not necessarily, it was running fine until my attempts to clock my GPU and memory I’m assuming there’s a setting that keeps it messy and unoptimized

after overclocking? than you most likely fried some of the cores or pins it happened to my friend once but he fried the whole cpu lmao

There's a setting called Raw Input Buffer that may help a little. It's designed for situations where your mouse has a high polling rate. May be worth trying.

I use that with raw accel

Yah. It's supposed to help with resource usage but I don't use it personally because it messes up Discord overlay.
DevuBhai
DevuBhai3y ago
ya? that does not happen with me...
me
me3y ago
Yah. It makes the game read mouse inputs even when the overlay is up.

do you use raw accel?

No.

this is the only setting that helps I used to play without it and average 120-200 fps? without it, the average stays the same but when I move my mouse.. I have a medal clip.

It may be worth it to simply reduce the polling rate of your mouse in the mouse settings. If this setting helps, it's probably that.

focus on the fps I’ve tried that too clips don’t send here, sending it in #gameplay Polling rate reduction affected everything in no way, however Raw Input Buffer helped drastically

Interesting. Riot would probably want to know what the issue is. Did you open a support ticket.
res
resOP3y ago
Twice, it’s been over 3 days no response doesn’t help that this issue occurred when riot was in the midst of an issue with updates due to softwares that falls in the same category of support tickets I’m probably a few hundred thousand in the waiting room

Damn. That's unfortunate.
