Hello! Recently, during the Steam game; Rust, my keyboard has stopped responding randomly while playing, and gets really bad whilst listening to YouTube or Twitch and playing rust. It's happened in other games but is really bad in Rust. I don't know what is causing this problem, I've troubleshot my Keyboard, ports, checked my ports for new updates in Device manager, switched the Logitech receiver to different ports all over my computer but to no avail.
I cannot test a different keyboard as I do not have any other keyboard at the moment.

System Info:
OS: Windows 10
CPU: i7-4970k
GPU: AMD Sapphire R9 280x
Keyboard: Logitech K350

Rf interference can come from the PC or monitor itself, if there is not adequate shielding.

Try the USB extender to move the receiver away from the possible source. Unfortunately your Keyboard has not had very good review for gaming and many have had your issue.
Sometimes the signal from your keyboard to PC can be interrupted by RF interference. I had this once and used a USB extension cable to put the Receiver well away from both computer and TV monitor in my case.

There are many sources that can effect this situation, Microwaves from an oven, Others broadcasting nearby.

My keyboard is nowhere near microwaves or ovens. It is in my room and only my keyboard is wireless. I don't think my router could cause this since i'm using ethernet but maybe it is.
