I'm guessing this is your first outing with an entry level gamer. There are many prior discussions about reducing settings and more so I'll stop here.
Note: Edited to correct title typo.
Hey guys, I'm getting pretty severe mouse and keyboard input lag while playing most games on my ASUS N56JN (Geforce 840m).
My fps is pretty decent in these games but the input lag makes them unplayable. The lag is even there when browsing menus and stops as soon as I alt-tab out of the game.
Any help would be appreciated!
