I play fps competitive games a lot and i always feel this laggyness with my system. I used to think its my overclocked 75hz monitor with input lags but few days ago i got a new 165hz tn panel monitor and its still the same. I got this tn panel cause of the low input lag but i still face the same issue. People still sees me before i can see and react to them. It always feels like they prefires me. Another issue is when im playing my graphics looks pretty bad like on the edges and unclear but when im spectating everything looks normal and clear. I check with this latencymon software and here are the results. So is this issues because of the high kernel timer latency or is it something else? I really need help. I cant play like this anymore. I changed so many things and but its still the same for almost a year now. someone help!!

CONCLUSION
_
Your system seems to be having difficulty handling real-time audio and other tasks. You may experience drop outs, clicks or pops due
to buffer underruns. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. One
problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:05:12 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

MEASURED KERNEL TIMER LATENCIES
_
This value represents the maximum measured latency of a perodically scheduled kernel timer.
Highest measured kernel timer latency (µs): 12282.50
_
REPORTED ISRs
_
Interrupt service routines are routines installed by the OS and device drivers that execute in response to a hardware interrupt
signal.
Highest ISR routine execution time (µs): 183.50
Driver with highest ISR routine execution time: dxgkrnl.sys - DirectX Graphics Kernel, Microsoft Corporation
Highest reported total ISR routine time (%): 0.027176
Driver with highest ISR total time: dxgkrnl.sys - DirectX Graphics Kernel, Microsoft Corporation
Total time spent in ISRs (%) 0.027895
ISR count (execution time <250 µs): 44649
ISR count (execution time 250-500 µs): 0
ISR count (execution time 500-1000 µs): 0
ISR count (execution time 1000-2000 µs): 0
ISR count (execution time 2000-4000 µs): 0
ISR count (execution time >=4000 µs): 0
_
REPORTED DPCs
_
DPC routines are part of the interrupt servicing dispatch mechanism and disable the possibility for a process to utilize the CPU while
it is interrupted until the DPC has finished execution.
Highest DPC routine execution time (µs): 1343.320
Driver with highest DPC routine execution time: nvlddmkm.sys - NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 472.12 , NVIDIA
Corporation
Highest reported total DPC routine time (%): 0.021035
Driver with highest DPC total execution time: nvlddmkm.sys - NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 472.12 , NVIDIA
Corporation
Total time spent in DPCs (%) 0.043814
DPC count (execution time <250 µs): 146486
DPC count (execution time 250-500 µs): 0
DPC count (execution time 500-10000 µs): 36
DPC count (execution time 1000-2000 µs): 1
DPC count (execution time 2000-4000 µs): 0
DPC count (execution time >=4000 µs): 0
_
REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory
mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is
interrupted and blocked from execution.
NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio
stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.
Process with highest pagefault count: msmpeng.exe
Total number of hard pagefaults 4964
Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 1931
Number of processes hit: 31
