Input Issues : Processing SDL Events took x.x ms

[lewin]

Input will suddenly become very laggy and mouse will feel very insensitive while the console is filled with [InputSystem] Processing SDL events took (values greater than 6ms). Seems to happen more often in an intense fight when pressing multiple buttons and with fast mouse movements, but can happen when just wandering the map, this was happening during the closed testing but has come back in the last few patches





Game also drops framerate when this happens but I think this is a symptom of the console spam

Do you know what your mouse's polling rate is?

I was having those msgs in CS2 for months, some other people too.
We found that it was RivaTuner that was causing this and also frametime spikes within VAC servers.

Maybe it's your case.

It's 1000hz, i'm not sure if it's installed software that would effect it, as it was an old issue that's come back in the last patch

I don't have any overlays installed besides the steam one unfortunately

Some one on reddit said that he fixed it by doing a clean install of windows,
Have you ever tweaked something related to input lag? Try reverse that, to see.

No, Plain windows. Just reporting it because it happens it's not world ending for me
