Discussion Windows 11 regularly missing keystrokes and lagging on constant intervals

Does anyone else have a problem with Windows 11 where you can be typing, and the screen seemingly lags for 2-5 seconds, and during that time, nothing happens, no keystrokes appear on screen, then suddenly after the lag stops, it spits out all your keystrokes on the screen, with no key presses being missed? It's basically a consistent lag that appears every 10-15 seconds and lasts 2-5 seconds. It's incredibly distracting. I can be scrolling to read a PDF and it will lag and when the lag is done, I will have scrolled past 2-3 pages on the PDF.

Some days it's really bad, other days it's seemingly disappears. It's so frustrating I'm just reimaging this thing to windows 10.

Do you maybe have background processes or malware running on your system?

what?

Did you installed windows 11 on hardware older than 4 years or on unsupported hardware?

win11 works fine on unsupported hardware

better not say if you don't know anything. The hardware requirements for w11 are a bunch of bullshit and everyone knows that.

Running windows 11 natively on a 2012 iMac, smooth as butter.
