So basically how it all started... I bought a new PC (wasn't very good at PCs back then) in 2011 so I could play Battlefield 3. I loved it very much at the start. 2 or 3 months or so after release I started to realize that I didn't exactly have it as everybody else. I figured this out mostly by watching videos. **** I even thought just average players were hacking. So what was the difference between me and everybody else? Well my guns were just really inaccurate, that was the best way I could describe it back then. It was just really hard to describe.
Eventually I found out about overclocking. And WHOA! Everything changed. I overclocked to 3,3 first and it was really good, i realized that it wasnt really there yet and tried 3,5 and WOW what a change, it was amazing (aka how everybody else has it, ALL THE TIME) I could finally own everyone like I should have from the start. but my cpu couldnt handle that so I bought a cooler and it was amazing...
For about a week.. Then everything started to get worse again... So i tried overclocking even more and it was good.. Then after a while it got worse again, Repeat until my cpu couldnt handle more overclocking. People thought i was crazy and it was some pseudo effect. No I just know that it wasn't. I was a really good player, I was even playing in one of the top teams in NA at that point and consider myself to be one of the 100-200 best. I even became good friends with #1 and #2 on overall PC hiscores so I know that I was a good player, **** maybe I could have been the best? (this is just my ego speaking sorry). Anyways a bit after that I stopped playing cause I couldn't be arsed to deal with it anymore. This was like at the end of 2012.
So what have I tried and where am I at now with my conclusions? I have either tested or changed out everything in my PC, tried changing monitor, reinstalled windows, and a lot of stuff basically. and the thing that is the most weird right now is that it seems that whenever I change something out, it's normal for a period of time, then it just starts going back to being bad again. It's so weird. I have a theory right now that it was my motherboard affecting the PC parts or memory somehow and with my new motherboard + cpu my memory still has memory left of it being bad? (something like that).
You could just say, Why didnt u buy a new PC? Well I could have but I didn't wanna spend my money at the times I thought about fixing it, I am neither very rich as I am currently finishing my last year in high school and I live pretty poor so I almost fully support my mom with all the money I get for being in school and stuff.
So anyways, I now have a pretty good idea of what the problem REALLY is. I played a lot of league and dota and not until I started playing League on my mac I realized what it was. (Yes it was quite great, doing better on a mac than a PC, kind of stupid really.). I think it is some kind of input delay, or just a delay as to where i press any key or do any action in the game, it just gets a little bit delayed and ****s everything up basically. No it's not ping really, it's something else and I have no idea how to fix it. (It's not my internet btw thats the problem, im sure). I don't have any FPS issues, memory issues (i think, it could be the memory?), i dont need to reinstall windows. It's not happening randomly, it's basically all the time where the guns feel inaccurate or my abilities are activating slower than they should in "MOBA-Games".
I was confident that it was something in my PC or something ****ing it all up and I probably still think that but as I have changed everything (except for that memory part I mentioned where i changed memory before motherboard + cpu) but I have no idea now honestly. It's so close right now to being normal but it's just not there yet, this is my last try ever and I really hope I can get an answer here.
Sorry for making this a bit long but remember this is supposedly a SUPER RARE problem that apparently nobody knows about from what i've seen so i need to tell almost everything. Thank you in advance.
