   Alright, so I made an amazing revelation.... I found this in my device manager. 
I disabled whatever the hell it is, and it completely fixed everything. WTF is this? Lmao

No more stutter in windows. Haven't tested games yet, but I'm running 1000 polling rate and everything is smooth as silk. I don't get it.

	Searching on VEN_1969&DEV_E0B1 results in: Killer E2500 Gigabit Ethernet Controller. No inbox Windows (mystery version) driver for that other LAN chip on your Gigabyte board. Why that should cause problems with your mouse, is another question.

	Also, strangely enough, I installed that driver multiple times and it continued to stay as unknown with the performance problems. I just installed the driver now after disabling it, and it applied to the hardware and re-enabled itself. Everything still seems to be working well. Really weird.

	Possibly a Gigabyte UEFI/BIOS problem. The main reason I don't use their boards, I've seen too many weird things like this in forums about their boards.

	Ok, just to update this(don't mean to hijack the OP's thread, but I hope my own troubleshooting might possibly help him), after rebooting the computer, the killer e2500 network interface is running and it's causing the horrible slowness again. So, whatever this crap is, it's crap. Gonna just disable it and move on.
