Mouse input lag/stutter makes game unplayable

My mouse has a massive stutter in the menus or game where it will freeze for about a second, then for about a quarter of a second, it suddenly moves and goes to the place where I was pointing to. The keyboard input does not have this problem and the game is running at a good and high framerate the whole time, it's just the mouse. This has been a problem since the beta as well preventing me from playing the game at all. I have tried the following: changing mouse polling rate, closing all applications, putting the visual settings on minimum, changing out of fullscreen mode, turning off "enhance pointer precision" in the control panel, reinstalling the game, turning on raw mouse input, disabling all overlays including steam and origin and GeForce, getting a different mouse, resetting/reinstalling drivers, and the list goes on. At this point, the only option I can see is to wipe my computer, which will NOT be happening. I have never had a problem like this in any other game ever, including all previous battlefield titles going back until battlefield 4. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    @Adamonic Apparently Dice has to balance PC versus console, so by swinging the pendulum of responsive controls over to consoles, PC had to suffer. Next patch it’ll go the other way, this way none of the community will be happy. SOP.

    @TheRealREDSL

    Hmm i wonder why STR is 20 ? so far i have seen it should be 45hz.

    What internet connection are ya  using ? dls , broadband , fiber ?

    Did ya try to lower graphics settings already ? looks like ya got high or ultra set !

    Also lower 144hz for youre screen/game , youre gpu realy need to work hard (also cpu) to run this game !

    Cheers

    ps what motherboard do ya use ?
    I did see some data in dxdiag that makes me wonder what board ya got !

    No, i played on custom settings. have tryed low settings as well. nothing helped so far.

    My motherboard is an MSI B550 GamingPlus (see pic)

    i will try the 144Hz thing, and report back
