I have a strange problem with my PC, I have asked tons of people but to no avail. Maybe you could he

Not related but in that reaction time thingy I got a few 180 ish but mostly about 260 - 280 but suffered quite a bit when I tried moving the mouse at the same time, My scores dropped to around 350ms - Doesn't really affect this thread though - Sorry.
 
Well, the reaction time seams normal.

What fps are you hitting in your games? you can use fraps if your games don't have an inbuilt fps counter.

If they are normal, then I don't know what else to suggest...
 
Make sure mouse acceleration is turned off, makes it feel like you can't aim at all and shots go in the wrong place.

(Check in the driver settings, check in the OS, check in the game etc - also make sure the mouse firmware is up to date as the G500 had a bug when first released that caused skipping issues, though that was before you bought it so you should be ok)

Edit: Also ensure angle snapping is off

A bit of reading online suggests the G500 out of the box is badly set up so you should try playing with the settings to ensure it's not got any crazy stuff like different DPI settings for vertical and horizontal too. If you're really a top gamer though you should probably look to go for a quality optical mouse rather than a laser one, as they're not as good at having linear response at speed anyway. Getting better, but still well behind optical.

Yeah i did that test and it appears my computer is able to handle it.

Handle what exactly? LatecnyMon isn't a test, it's a monitoring program.

You need to leave it running in the background while you do things that cause this odd lag you're getting, then check your results and post back what you got here. You can export the results of any session to a text file, just use spoiler tags to post it on here as it will be freakin' huge!

Maybe you just have too much anti-aliasing/eye-candy settings too high enabled for your poor old card and frame rate is just tanking?

I'd also check your PCI clock timer/latency timer in your BIOS, if you have the option. Don't set it too high. 64 should be fine. It doesn't make a difference in 99.99% of cases, but you never know. Just make a note for current setting so you change it back in case it throws a wobbler.
 
And keep an eye on your cpu/gpu temps, you might be temp throttling. use HWmonitor to keep an eye on things. again, leave open in the background, test your game, have a look at "max" column for cpu/gpu temps and post back?

Sorry if someone already suggested this.

This is while playing for 12 minutes. Temperatures are fine btw, I have done that a million times so it's nothing to do with that.

CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.

Highest measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 15536,246708
Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 2,375455

Highest measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 175,248325

REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.

NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.

Process with highest pagefault count: avgidsagent.exe

Total number of hard pagefaults 9996
Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 5187
Highest hard pagefault resolution time (µs): 124929,147143

Looks like your NIC drivers are problematic. It may also be that various devices are sharing PCIe lanes on your system and aren't playing nicely together.

Let me have a gander at the motherboards manual I'll post back in 10 or 15.
 
hmmmm... according to your opening post you have 8gb RAM, but only 4gb is being reported on that post you made. Maybe check you have all your memory seated correctly in the meantime?
 
I see this BIOS option in the manual for your mobo:

PCH PCI-E Lane Configuration [Auto]
It can help you conveniently and directly manage the configuration of the PCI-E
lanes from PCH.

Any chance of a screenie of what it looks like after you change it from auto. Does it give you a manual option? I have tried to google the pci lane config of this baord but got nothing. Asus give you a diagram in thier manuals :)

It might be you just need to diasable a USB or additional storage controller. Also, are you using a dedicated soundcard by any chance?

I will do this tomorrow when I have the chance. As for soundcard I am not using one.

I'll give u 500 quid if u was better then me at bf3 :)

Have you tried turning the resolution/graphics down? a lot of FPS players do that to gain a competitive advantage and I'd imagine it'll also help if you're getting slowdown due to memory swapping etc.

I checked the setting. No need to give a screenshot though. It gave me the option between 2x/1x/1x and 4x/0/0. There was also a setting above that with PCH. Did not change anything though yet since im not sure what it does. And how do I disable a USB or additional storage controller?
