New Monitor.. Terrible Input Lag
I just bought a new MSi Optix G24C 144hz monitor and ive been getting horrible in game lag when moving and shooting (CSGO, Fortnite, etc). Never had this lag with my previous 144hz monitor and have not changed specs.
CPU: i7 6700
GPU: GTX 970
16gb DDR4

FPS you getting?
Did you make sure to have monitor set to 144hz?
Is Vsync on?
Did you do a drivers update when this issue happen?

FPS is anywhere from 150-300, monitor is set to 144hz, Vsync is off and i just updared all my drivers this weekend

Also how was your ping?

And this update is when the issue started happening? If so get DDU, use it in windows safemode, then click on only the recommended options, to wiping your nvidia drivers, once they have been remove, simply download the Nvidia drivers from the website, and get the latest, or older drivers that you know that works well for you.

Set to 144Hz in Monitor + OS + Games
Enable NVIDIA Adaptive Sync within NVIDIA Control Panel
Disable VSync within Games

Native Resolution : FHD, 1920 x 1080

Input lag for that monitor (< 15 is considered good)

Native Resolution : 5.3 ms
Native Resolution @ 60 Hz : 10.1 ms
Variable Refresh Rate : 4.3 ms

It's a budget monitor, but as for input lag, it shouldn't be that bad at all.

It's using the native resolution and not Nvidia DSR resolution scaling or something else?

Make sure you plugged the monitor into the GPU and not the mobo for starters (it happens alot), also I believe the latest nvidia drivers are having some issues so roll back to an older one if you updated.
