USB 3.0 causing wireless interference
 

I started googling solutions for why my wireless mouse wasn't acting right (seemed like there were "dead spots" in the mouse movement, like it was lagging every few seconds).



I found a solution that said to move the USB receiver to a non USB 3.0 port, and as far away from 3.0 ports as possible. If you have a USB extender, use that. It didn't make a lot of sense to me, but sure as sh*t as soon as I used a USB extender things started working again. Then I started researching a bit more and found more confirmation than I expected:

I wouldn't have guessed that a wired connection could cause so much interference in the wireless spectrum, but I guess it does. Just an FYI for those that have similar problems.
