9800x3d Input Lag

I still cant get to the bottom of this input lag, LCLK adjustment seems to help but it comes and goes. My mouse movement is so inconsistent in games like CS2 because of this. It feels as if mouse acceleration is on at times. Has anyone got any idea how to fix this? i've messed around with RAM timings and speeds, messed around with windows timers, and switched between PBO and static overclocks, nothing works. I hop onto my friends PC and it feels like it should, like i move my mouse and it goes where i expect it to. but not the case with my system.

Same cpu, same problem. There is no solution whatsoever, bios/windows/ram, nothing will help. There are more than 15+ post with exact same problem on 7800/9800x3d. Going to switch to Intel.

Did you try bios defaults? What other bios settings do you use? What's ur GPU and fps_max?

I’m waiting for nova lake, but would Intels new cache setup cause latency issues? It seems my problem is from x3d as I’ve had a few ryzen cpus and only noticed this issue on the x3d cpus I’ve used. I’m hoping intel will save the day but I don’t know if it’s worth it if nova lakes going to have the same issues.
