I need a good x99 motherboard. Mouse lag sucks!

Go to solution Solved by upchuck,

My laptop works great with my mouse/keyboard setup, but not for encoding! lol....

Hi all, I have gone through 2 Gigabyte x99-UD4 boards in two years. I end up getting major mouse lag/stuttering, and I don’t overclock. What x99 motherboard do you recommend for me?

I do a lot of video encoding, rendering, and some gaming. I’m disabled and must use an on-screen keyboard (Hot Virtual Keyboard) and a SmartNav4:AT mouse. 

 

My system: Win 10 Pro, i7-5960X, Samsung 960 EVO M.2 NVMe, G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB, 1 Zotac GTX 1080 card, Antec 750W power supply. I also have 5 hot swappable IDE hard drive bays.

I don’t really want to part with my i7-5960X, but should I go with a different CPU and chipset?

 

I have tried so many things to fix this mouse lag/stuttering. I can not use any web browser and my office programs are unusable. I have mouse leg all the time but way worse with certain programs. I’ve tried a few different bios versions. Old drivers/new drivers, etc. Disabling Cortana and removing Realtek drivers helped slightly. I have changed the win 10 mouse settings. I’ve tried different network settings. I now barely have any programs on my computer right now and still lag. I have tried 2 different types ram, 2 different M.2 SSD’S, 2 Video cards, and tested my power supply. This leaves my CPU and motherboard in question. CPU could be throttling? Motherboard could have faulty software/bois? Could voltages be fluctuating on the motherboard? A USB 3 issue?

 

Thanks, Chuck

No. I just have one drive plugged in right now. The M.2 SSD

The SmartNav4:AT is the only mouse I can use. It is a finicky mouse but I've figured the quirks with that. My computer worked great for while but eventual I start getting lag. The lag does happen less when my caregiver uses a regular mouse.

I had a similar situation also with an x 99 board.

 

It originated from some incorrect storage device configuration.

I'm in bed on my laptop now, but I will double check the settings tomorrow. I had that problem a few years back.
