Hey everyone! I've been trying to dive into the topic of latency in Valorant because I often struggle with shot registration and the peeker's advantage. Here's my setup: I'm using an Intel 10700KF processor and an RTX 2060 Super GPU, along with 16GB of DDR4 RAM clocked at 3600MHz. My monitor has a 240Hz refresh rate, and I've got a mouse and keyboard with 8000Hz polling rates. Despite having this pretty solid gear, I've been seeing game latency and game to render latency stats around 7-8ms, often spiking up to 10ms. In the NVIDIA monitoring tool, my average PC latency reads double digits. I notice others with lower specs and refresh rates managing a lower latency, and I've done a lot to optimize my Windows settings but still struggle with high latency. Right now, I'm using G-Sync with Fast V-Sync in the Nvidia Control Panel, along with Ultra LLTM and Reflex On+Boost, while in-game V-Sync is turned off. Any advice would be super helpful! Thanks!

Have you checked your Internet connection? Make sure it's stable and that you're using a wired connection. It can make a big difference!
Yeah, I'm on Ethernet and I’ve adjusted the settings for that too. I'm getting a steady ping of 15ms on the closest server.
