1440p monitor now lagging like hell?

drewl5799 · 15 Aug 2021 at 16:48

I’ve just got a LG 27850-b 1440p monitor. I’ve put in onto my system via display port and when I play war zone the game just freezes, waits about 5 seconds then skips forwards to catch back up. I’ve not changed anything else other than monitor. Everything worked fine on my 1080p….. any help to solution would be much appreciated….

apart from that the picture does look great

I know that game is buggy but reset the Nvidia CP setting to default and set up again.

Also, my FPS in war zone still showing at about 130-140

My FPS in nearly all games tanked after the April KB (Win 10/now Win11).

Have you got DSR on in the NCP (to get 1440p on 1080p) so now it will be far higher on 1440p?

I think pretty much all I did was plug in new monitor and use GeForce to optimise game settings…

I would never let it do that TBH.

It seems to be when I play I get massive packet loss… I just don’t understand why that is suddenly happening after changing monitor

I do not do MP so not sure.

Any other details on your setup? I've got the same monitor and play Warzone at 1440p as well - 3070 and 5800x with no stuttering or freezing and I'm playing over Display Port as well.

Have you tried going back to your 1080p screen to see if it still happens on that? Does it happen on other games?

I also saw that you said you use GeForce to optimise game settings - have you tried changing the settings and seeing if it still happens? I'm pretty sure the optimised game settings enables texture streaming which could be 100% having an impact on packet loss and stutters.

Yeah I’ve got a 5800x, msi b550 gaming edge WiFi, 32gb 3600 ram, super flower 850 gold plus psu, 3070 fe. I genuinely don’t know what changed other than monitor. Made the game unplayable. Every time I go in with my mates I’m just freezing/rubberbanding. I put the packets counter on through warzone and it randomly goes up to 100% + then I die or get kicked

Yeah - pretty similar set up to me.

I definitely think it's worth you trying other online multiplayer games to see if you get the same stutter/freezing - and trying some offline single player games too. It doesn't sound like it's the monitor from what you've described - especially as you can now see your packet loss hits 100% when it occurs.

Also you should check through your in game settings to make sure the texture streaming etc. is all switched off. If you can change your in-game graphic settings back to what you had with your older 1080p panel that would at least allow you to do a like-for-like comparison.

Try to use MSI afterburner to limit your fps to 144fps, it works for me in some games.

It's a network issue, are you using wifi? Probably just a coincidence that it started happening with a new monitor but could be causing some interference with the wifi signal

GeForce optimise is the red flag for me. Optimising a game once changed the global settings as opposed to just the individual game setting and it messed with my system.

Try a clean install of nvidia drivers.
