Problem details:
This started on the 29/10/19, osu just started randomly lagging at seemingly random intervals causing me to miss notes or entire streams, and on one occasion caused me to miss a single note on a map I was about to FC

Massive amounts of input lag and frame rate drops randomly throughout beatmaps, and on song select.
I have reinstalled multiple times, repaired osu, changed settings (raw input off then back on, background video off), Moved osu to a faster SSD, Closed everything on my PC except Osu, still no improvement


Video or screenshot showing the problem:
Since the video recorded in less than 60fps its hard to notice where the lag is (compared to me playing on a 144fps monitor) but if you focus on the frame rate and input lag in the bottom right, that'll help tell the story.

osu! version: Stable 20191031 (latest)

Reinstall your graphics drivers. You mentioned in a different thread that you just updated Windows and other users reported getting performance issues after having done that and reinstalling their drivers seemed to help.

Same problem here. Did you manage to fix it?

Mine started running alright before i reinstalled my drivers, but I reinstalled them anyway, So im not really too sure..
it atleast seems to have calmed down a lot in the beatmaps but still get some input lag and frame drops in the menus.
I will keep this thread updated though as I dont believe the issue has just up and vanished, just hasnt been as frequent

suspicious to me huh

Update: Reinstalling the drivers hasn't worked, Osu seemed to be running ok, and the ms lag is a lot less frequent but it still exists and is causing much frustration.

Edit: The input lag still occurs but it is now incredibly rare during a beat map and only really occurs on the menus, although when I opened discord the input lag seemed to return to the beatmaps.
Frame limiter options don't seem to help either, vsync makes things 10x worse, the only playable option is unlimited (which i've always been on)

Edit2: Heres yet another vid of the input lag causing me to fail the song, Keep in mind that I used to average around 1.2ms yet now whenever i move my mouse it ranges from 0.8ms to 9ms then randomly throughout the song will jump to 80+ms I have now seen it hit over 120ms during a beatmap at which point I may aswell have been looking at a JPEG..

Edit3: This is just insane now, wtaf is wrong with this game! Hit over 100ms and 30fps during a beatmap, makes it impossible to actually hit anything, this is infuriating

Update2: I seem to be able to play 2-3 beatmaps perfectly fine with no input lag whatsoever after loading up osu but after those 2-3 it becomes unplayable due to the input lag and massive frame drop.
It isnt a PC hardware issue as I keep an eye on my task manager, plus I managed to play 3 beatmaps with no more than a maximum of 1.6ms even with 26 chrome tabs open, discord, steam, battle.net, spotify AND COD MW running in the background downloading shaders

Another Update: Still no resolution, sometimes I can play for 20-30 mins without any input lag and frame loss other times it begins as soon as I load up osu. Currently there is no common denominator to the issue that I can see, it doesnt appear to be any software I have running in the background as I play, nor does it seem to be any of my Hardware.
