What’s the best way to reduce input lag? How can I reduce input lag while using the game software?

If you're experiencing delays between your actions (like swings or shots) and the game’s response, it’s likely due to input lag. Here are a few ways to minimize it:

• Make sure the game is set to use your dedicated GPU – On systems with both integrated and dedicated graphics (like NVIDIA), go to your GPU control panel and set the game software to run on the high-performance GPU.
• Connect your monitor or projector directly to the PC – Avoid using adapters, splitters, or wireless connections, as these can add delay.
• Enable Game Mode on your display – Many monitors/TVs have a “Game Mode” that reduces processing time.
• Update your GPU drivers and game software – Always use the latest versions to benefit from performance improvements.
• Lower in-game graphics settings – If the system is struggling to render graphics, reducing settings can help maintain real-time responsiveness.
• Check background apps – Close unnecessary programs that might be using system resources.
