I have a Apex Pro TKL SteelSeries keyboard and I have an issue where my keys would randomly get input delay for around 3-4 seconds and then go back to normal, I have had this keyboard for only two years and my keyboard has never had this issue before until now. This issue also happens no matter what keyboard/keypad that is plugged. For example I have two separate keypads in which both had worked perfectly fine until they also got random input delay spikes. I have looked up how to solve this issue but it seems there are no helpful ways to fix it. I have updated my drivers and tried different USB ports on my pc and cleaned my pc and reset my CPU. After trying everything  this issue still hasn't resolved. The input delay also occurs more frequently when I play games or write essays or taking notes. My keypads would also have random input delay spikes when I use them to play games. If theres any way to fix this issue please help. The first clip is gameplay of ultrakill and near the end my keys start having input delay in which i take my hands off the keyboard and my character is still moving, the second clip is of OSU which shows my inputs and near the end my inputs become delayed on my key pad.

Do you have the steel series engine installed to check for firmware updates on the keyboard?
