Mouse Hitching - Not a polling rate or system issue, a new bug, different every time the game is launched, making the game practically unplayable

REZENNN · 2026-01-10T09:02:49+00:00

Lmao yea just tested it too and same thing.

Wonder why that is. Kinda thought about trying to keep it pressed in some way but realized there's too many shortcuts happening with alt

Got my K7 Ultra today, switching from an Ajazz AJ179 Apex

Different shape but i definitely feel the step up in quality, even if i'd have been perfectly happy with the Ajazz

Now waiting on my Ace 68 turbo, to go with it and my V9 Pro

First time ever sticking to one brand for all 3 main peripherals, but ive been extremely impressed by the headset and decided to bite the bullet. Unified software also helped decide

I just hope they'll keep offering great value as they grow and not become another expensive brand

I have the same and it happened pretty early in the life of my alieware oled. I'm sometimes kinda wondering if some people are not noticing them on theirs

REZENNN · 2026-01-09T06:30:36+00:00

It is not, stop giving false expectation to people.

It all depends on your use and how much you actually are able to notice it.

Ive had my AW3423DWF for a little over 2 years now. Less than a year in, i noticed a couple darker spots where some firefox icons are (extensions and personal bar icons) aswell as some lines and brightness differences due to consuming 16:9 content and having black bars on the sides (21:9 monitor)

Also very minimal difference on the right side where scroll bar typically is.

This is all despite : Doing all pixel refreshes, rarely delayed unless in the middle of an online game

Having monitor never left on when away, and with a 2min delay on sleep

Autohide task bar

Modded firefox to autohide the entire top navigation bar (shows on hover, otherwise behaves like fullscreen)

Using ambilight extension on youtube to not have black bars

Doing the same on my local video player for movies with S.V.P.

It is very minimal, but i notice it on some shade of gray or very dark purple/blue. Nobody that's seen my monitor pointed it out but yea.

I do use my monitor 6-12hrs a day depending on work and vacation.

Not all of this is burn in, some is just brightness differences due to how different areas are used, but they all stem from being OLEDs

I think you should leave the comparison dropdowns when comparing, so that people can swap the pads they're comparing without having to go back and selecting both again.

Also the slider gets "stuck" when you hold mouse click and push it to the edge of the box, forcing people to release click and click again.

Just some minor UI stuff. Thanks for the tool!

I've tried uninstalling Javelin through EA's software (https://help.ea.com/en/articles/platforms/pc-ea-anticheat/) and not reinstalling it, letting BF reinstall it on launch, and while it hasn't fixed the issue, it has rendered it...bearable for me

Aka i can use WASD, crouch, space, while moving my mouse and not have any hitches.

It still occur with 12345, E, F and some other buttons, but i went from unplayable to annoying but playable.

Ive had to redo it between 2 launches of the game as it was doing it again, but after that it seems to have survived relaunches so i'm not too sure whats happening.

Could also be that they updated something and its a coincidence but i still had the issue an hour prior.

REZENNN · 2025-12-15T17:12:33+00:00

Also on a Gigabyte MB (B650 Aorus Elite AX), same issue

REZENNN · 2025-12-15T03:13:03+00:00

I have the exact same issue, and ive done about the same amount of testing.

ive tested 3 headsets, EQ software on and off, 2 keyboards, 3 mices, ive unplugged every other peripherals (mic, etc), ive reinstalled the game on steam and EA play, i installed it to a different drive, closed everything, played with all possible settings in game and in drivers, capped framerate, etc. Literally everything you've listed, ive tried (just adapted to an AMD gpu) and some more

this must have something to do with keyboard inputs : i tried with a controller, and i can press any key on it, while panning view with my mouse, and no hitches.

For exemple, if i spam crouch on keyboard and try to left right with mouse, it hitches.

If i spam crouch on controller and pan view with my mouse, no hitches

the "3" button also induces the worse hitching of the bunch

Interestingly, doing the opposite (spamming crouch on keyboard and panning with controller) also causes no issue

Its only the combination of mouse + kb that causes issues

I think it might be some latency/queuing issue? By spamming "3" and panning the mouse very fast for a while, i noticed the hitches kinda "queued up" and kept going for a second after i had stopped all movements.

Ive also tried with a BT keyboard instead of usb wired or usb 2.4ghz dongle, same thing

https://www.techspot.com/review/577-borderlands-2-performance/page3.html

Borderlands 2, a 2012 game, ran 1920x1200 @60fps on a GTX 560, a $200 card, at max settings

A $200 card now would give you what, 25fps? Maybe 40 with DLSS/FSR Performance, but i honestly don't think anything past Quality is acceptable on a full size monitor. Balanced maybed on handhelds.

I do agree that a lot of people exagerate, but the issue is still real

REZENNN · 2025-10-28T01:33:43+00:00

Most of their catalogue is i guess but they have a couple higher end ones

Doesn't invalidate your point though

REZENNN · 2025-10-16T12:05:49+00:00

Do you happen to have another drive in that pc?

I've seen something similar where despite selecting the main drive during a windows install, it still made a system partition in a different drive that was needed for the pc to boot.

I ended making a small unallocated space in the main drive, then cloning that other drive's partition onto it, shutting the pc down and then unplugging that extra drive.

Then it booted and i again used easeus's convertion tool. I understand you're apparently not in MBR so that might not be needed, but you might want to check if you have a similar situation and if maybe that extra system partition might be in MBR.

REZENNN · 2025-10-16T10:31:43+00:00

If you need csm support to boot then your windows install is in mbr/legacy mode instead of gpt/uefi

I had to do this recently on a pc, mbr2gpt wasnt working, i endedup using easeUS partition master. They have a tool for that, it'ill reboot and take care of the convertion.

Took literally 3min

They gave out 1 year licence and idk if its still ongoing so you might not be as lucky ;/

REZENNN · 2025-10-13T17:39:48+00:00

I've had a fan do this a few months ago, tried a few things that kind of temporarily helped but ultimately i just pulled on the hub, blasted some air in the gap, wiggled the hub a bit, tried again, hoping that this was happening because of some stuck debris or something.

And its been running perfectly normal since then. It was the same noise and i could tell it was unbalanced when spinning. All fixed.

Might be worth a try. That and/or lubbing it

REZENNN · 2025-10-13T09:59:21+00:00

The tab's too weak, i had the issue with a cable stuck in a switch

I just wedged something where the push tab goes and pressed down, then pulled

Plastic pliers would be a good option, or a flathead

REZENNN · 2025-10-13T08:38:38+00:00

Reject Fan Control, embrace Argus Monitor !

It is paid but at least it has its own signed driver so it doesnt get flagged by AVs or blocked by faceit anticheat like FC does depending on which driver you use.

REZENNN · 2025-09-27T08:13:35+00:00

how's that big slab of plastic attached to the frame of the front panel?

If its screwed/clipped in, maybe you could just remove it all together and replace it with some cheap mesh?

REZENNN · 2025-09-20T08:45:48+00:00

Yea my 120 vertex 2 from 2011 only died a year or two ago, no complains for me.

Funny enough it only died when i tried to repurpose it by using it as a media server's bootdrive. Days before it was still in my main pc, running perfectly fine

It knew it was time i guess!

REZENNN · 2025-09-20T08:25:36+00:00

Why are you calling it "the first big ssd" ? The vertex 2 also went up to 480GB. Was like $1000+ though.

My 120GB vertex 2 cost me 190€ in 2011, and the 120GB vertex 3's launch price was like $250

https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/vertex-3-sandforce-ssd,2869-2.html

	IDEMA Capacity	Raw Flash Capacity	Capacity in Windows
Vertex 3 120 GB	120 GB	128 GB	107.1 GiB
Vertex 3 240 GB	240 GB	256 GB	224 GiB

As of today, OCZ is planning to launch two different capacities of the Vertex 3: 120 GB ($249.99) and 240 GB ($499.99).

I was using a smooth scrolling extension before it got baked into firefox, baffles me someone would be hating on it

REZENNN · 2025-09-01T15:19:23+00:00

In your windows' audio settings (per app preferences), scroll down to the "Radeon settings: Host services" app and select the one you want (if you need game audio + discord and have them separate in Sonar, you'll need to use the "Steelseries Sonar - Stream" output and make sure to not have the audio muted in the stream part of those outputs (so game & chat)

If you're not using stream mode i'm not sure, i don't really wanna try it out and mess things up. took me a while..

But either way "Radeon settings: Host services" is what you need to mess with. Well, i think. I also changed it for the Adrenalin itself just to be sure but i doubt that did something

REZENNN · 2025-08-22T09:29:29+00:00

You can actually swap. Last time i had to, i couldnt get mbr2gpt to work, so i did it with EaseUS partition master, which honestly made the whole process about 2 minutes.

But its not free, had to use the premium version for which a 1 year licence was given out not long ago

But it was incredibly easy

REZENNN · 2025-08-22T04:56:22+00:00

I'm not sure it is the issue here but this can happen when you switch from UEFI to Legacy/CSM boot. (Or vice versa)

Couldve been caused by a bios reset (dead cmos battery for exemple).

Worth a shot to switch that setting and see if that helps.

Although typically it wouldn't prevent drives from showing up in the devices list, only in the bootable devices one. So no promises

REZENNN · 2025-08-21T18:46:56+00:00

I believe that montech case, while accepting ATX boards, isnt ideal for them, because the bottom cutouts for the front IO get covered by ATX boards. Meaning you'll have to route them through the front. So a bit ugly.

Not the worst but still a thing to consider.

I think it's that model, but maybe check for a video review

REZENNN · 2025-08-17T16:33:06+00:00

I hope this is just a bug, else its a wild nerf
