First of all, my specs are:
GPU: XFX R9-290 DD
CPU: Intel i5-4690k @3.5 ghz
PSU: Thermaltake 750w
RAM: 8gb G-Skill Ripjaw DDR3-1600
MoBo: MSI Z97 PC Mate
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
More than enough to run most any game at 60+ fps, as I have been doing since I built it, but starting today nearly every game runs like absolute trash. Funnily enough, these games run no differently to usual at max settings:
Borderlands 2(150+ fps)
Alien: Isolation(150+ fps)
Minecraft(150+ fps)
Battlefield 3(100+ fps)
DayZ(35-70-ish fps) - Not at max settings, but running normally regardless.
I'm sure others are running normally, but I haven't checked my entire library.
I have run multiple virus scans through multiple anti-virus programs, and nothing of importance has been detected. I've also run HDD Sentinel only to have it tell me that my HD is in perfect condition.
Lower-spec games, like every source engine game I own, are running piss-poor on any settings with an insane amount of mouse lag present, and I can't understand why. I've gone from 100+ fps at all times in TF2 with max settings to barely pushing 40 on the lowest settings, WITH a metric fuckton of input lag.
I don't exactly know a ton about troubleshooting, which is why I'm here, but I'm kind of guessing that this isn't a hardware problem since there are varying results throughout different games of different hardware requirements.
I've posted on /r/techsupport on reddit, but they haven't been much help so far. Hopefully you guys can help me out.
**TLDR; Most games are running terribly with crazy mouse lag. Just started acting up today.**
Please help me out, and if you need any more information just ask.
If I am posting this in the wrong forum, just tell me. I'm not 100% sure about where I should be posting this.
Thanks!
