Check input delay in Halo Infinite
Check input delay in Halo Infinite
I made an error updating to the newest driver, but I was fine with the 511.65 version. After starting to play on the controller, aim felt heavy and not fun. This was the same issue I had months earlier, but I used a GTX 980. After buying a new GPU, RX 3060, the problem was fixed, but I kept the same driver for the 980. The only change I made was to switch the low latency mode to ultra just to see if it helped, but everything turned out worse. I installed the same driver I had before (511.65), but high input lag remained, so I’m unsure what to do. Halo Infinite is the only game I play, so it’s important for me to be able to enjoy it after work.
Using a detailed GPU driver uninstaller before installing new drivers is beneficial, particularly when switching GPUs, since remnants of the previous GPU can affect performance.
Try this if you haven't already, and ensure you're in Safe Mode as advised.

Additionally, Digital Foundry's guide on graphics settings for Halo Infinite is useful. If light sources flicker after adjusting settings, restart your system before launching the game.
After applying these changes, I successfully played with improved settings on my GTX 1080 without encountering any issues after driver updates.
Halo Infinite is an excellent game that I thoroughly enjoyed, so I created a video tutorial on how to play it on Legendary without any upgrades, relying solely on the base grappleshot. I wouldn't want anyone's experience to be negatively impacted by lag.
Hey there, thanks for your time and quick response. I really appreciate it. I followed everything you suggested on the post, which made a big difference—it helped the game run smoothly, even if not as well as before. I’ve already completed a clean Windows installation, but I think some leftover files from previous setups might still be there. The game now runs 15-20 frames per second more. I have a question about switching to a new SSD; would that really help? Also, the OS and drivers are installed from scratch. I was planning to buy a new processor and motherboard, but my budget is tight right now, so I was considering selling something to make it work. I believe the issue might be related to software rather than hardware, since sometimes problems appear and then resolve. Thanks again for your time.
When evaluating your system, it's important to review all specifications thoroughly, particularly for the PSU and storage devices, especially those used for installing the operating system and games. Ensure you maintain a minimum of 15% free space across all drives, which refers to the actual capacity rather than the advertised amount. Verify that the latest firmware is installed and that TRIM functionality is active. Most manufacturers provide free tools to assess drive health, though for non-mechanical drives like SSDs and NVMe, this often relies on write activity estimates.
You should also consider the limitations of your build, as the CPU may not fully match the GPU's power. This impact varies based on resolution settings. For general use, 3840 x 2160 offers around a 2% bottleneck. However, gaming performance is more affected—especially with the 3060, which struggles to maintain smooth 4K frame rates at high resolutions. Consequently, the GPU can become the limiting factor in certain titles.
It’s crucial to provide complete hardware details and specify your gaming preferences, desired graphics settings, and playback resolution. This information helps determine whether a bottleneck exists or if upgrades are feasible. If you need clarification, this resource can assist in analyzing your setup and suggesting improvements.

Hey there, long post mate, I’ll try everything you suggested. I didn’t mention the SSD part—I just want to say it was used on a laptop and had the same issue before. I switched from HDD to SSD, but the problem started. I ran a crystal disk test and found no damage, but since then I’ve used the same SSD. The load times are now fast, though I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence. Playing Máster Collection was also causing the same problem after I changed the HDD to SSD.
Well, it looks like the input lag while aiming might be the main issue, especially with a gamepad. Check the second video I shared—it mentioned a fix that could help. It might just be enough to resolve the problem.
When I first set up Halo Infinite, I noticed some frame rate delays. After following Digital Foundry's suggestions and restarting, the game ran smoothly. Be sure to reboot after making changes, as the settings can be sensitive.
I believe your issue stems from playing that game, as it has fewer players now compared to BF2042, which is notable. Possibly, the latency could be due to your software or drivers, or the buffer settings in the graphics card program.
I haven't used TMCC on a solid-state drive, though I did play Infinite on my EVO 970 NVMe without any issues.
It's unclear how important it is for others to know whether someone played online or the campaign, as it depends on personal preference.
Also, many players focus only on the campaign, which some believe is the strongest part of the series.
