To achieve 0 input delay on your computer, update all drivers, specifically graphics and peripheral drivers. Disable V-Sync and any power-saving settings. Using a wired connection for your peripherals and a high-refresh-rate monitor can also help. Finally, keep your computer free of background applications that can cause lag.

Questions and answers

  1. What causes input delay on a computer?

    Input delay can be caused by outdated drivers, enabled V-Sync, wireless peripherals, power-saving settings, and background applications running on your computer.

  2. How does disabling V-Sync reduce input lag?

    Disabling V-Sync removes the synchronization between your graphics card and monitor refresh rate, which can reduce the delay between input and on-screen response.

  3. Is a wired connection better than wireless for reducing input delay?

    Yes, using wired peripherals typically results in lower input delay compared to wireless connections due to reduced signal latency.
