Intermittent Mouse Lag/Stutter

Technical Support
1

Only noticed this starting to happen recently, as I had stopped playing for a good few months and now… this.
Playing a game and literally every couple of minutes the mouse will stutter or lag, whatever you want to call it… Its like the sensitivity drops really low for a second or two and then reverts back to normal again… repeat every couple of minutes, seriously annoying and unplayable.

Anyone know any fixes for this? Is this common or what?

Im on Windows 10, mouse is Logitech G400s

Thanks

UPDATE:
Atm if anyone wondering Finger pointing at EA’s Platform, Origin causing this

Hi.
What is the delay time? Have you tried to connect another mouse, change the mouse pad?
Try to remove the mouse software.

Hey DStruct,

Do you perhaps have any other programs active in the background? It might be that something else is trying to take focus of your mouse which causes this. Go through the steps to close background applications and retest.

Have a few seconds to spare? Let me know how I’m doing!

Closed everything down last night and to be fair it did seem to play better so that might be it.
Programmes that I can close and usually have in the background are platforms mostly, the ones I closed last night were:
Steam, Battle net, Origin, Discord, Plex and Spotify.
(Oh also this little automated Utility called Unchecky, if you know of it. Automatically unchecks unwanted checkboxes on installations etc)
Are you aware of any of those causing problems with Overwatch?
Regards
Lee
