hey all currently suffering from quite bad latency issues in game. I'm really confused because my roommate, which is running off the same internet bandwidth as me and is running wireless too, is not suffering from any sort of lag at all. Also same adapter and we arent far away(just around the corner) so there is the same amount of distance to the router. I normally play overwatch with him and I can't play due to the immense lag i'm getting, causing me to disconnect from games. Speeds are the same(checked on speedtest.net) so i dont understand how this is possible? if you guys want a video demostrating the lag in action feel free to ask >Before you tell me to go wired read what i said above thoroughly, I want to know how my roommate is running wireless and not experiencing any latency issues but I am. im guessing it's probably something to do with my pc itself. any ideas? please ask if you need clarification/ more information i will be happy to respond as soon as i an

smarter people would know that it will still take up a lot of space lmao just for a wire is not worth the effort but k

im most certain it is, it was quite stable before i changed i dont know why it's suddenly getting so bad all of the sudden

do you understand how inefficent that is, to have a wire in the middle of my staircase just for a wifi cable ffs if this is the only fix then fuck that

i'm suffering from really bad packet loss in game, keeps spiking up latency then stabilising for a few seconds to lag again. I'm currently connected to the internet through wireless adapter. I have used wireless all my time of having a PC and it has never been this bad. I'm not sure if it's my internet provider or my computer hardware causing the problem. A lot of people have said to "use a wired connection" but what, run a cable all the way downstairs to my wifi router and connect a cable like that? please, any help, games are so unplayable rn if you need more info please ask 

your components might be overheating, check if your temps are fine

Do not go for a 1060 or 1070. There are better value gpus right now for example the 1160 ti which is better than the 1060 for nearly the same price and for the price of a 1070 you can get a rtx 2060

You might as well buy a whole new computer to be honest

Yes, for what you're getting it is very good for the price.

I would personally go for the acer aspire if you are looking to save money since the specs are pretty much similar. However for the lenovo yoga, it may be a bit more expensive but in return you are getting better build quality and can fully rotate. Plus the screen is touchscreen as well if that helps you

Oh. Both are the same speed. Thanks for the help guys

Have a look here

Take a look at the picture below. I have no idea what a XMP profile by the way lol

There is probably an error in the bios then. I'm not even kidding.
