Hello fellow input laggers. Today i found out really strange mouse behavior.
I've never used mouse polling rate lower than 1k especially in wireless mode.
I was struggling using all of my wireless mice because all of them felt floaty and unpredictable. Except mchose g3 ultra(realtek chip).
BUT.
As soon as I connected the usb cable I immediately stopped having any kind of problems with the mouse(even in 1k/2k/4k/8k, yes mchose mice can use these polling rates with the cable)
I have like 10-12 different mouse models.
Today I decided to conduct a small experiment.
I played aim training map in cs2 in wireless mode with 1k polling rate for about 10 minutes and was really bad at tracking and flicking because it feels super floaty.
Than i lower my polling rate to 500hz and instantly feel the difference in mouse behavior. It feel more predictable and i start making pretty good flicks. Yes i felt a little bit of delay but mouse movement felt much more accurate.
Than i lower my polling rate to 250hz and mouse movement felt like i was playing 1k with a cable. I start flicking like crazy and it was really easy to track my enemies.
Is something wrong with my pc? Usb ports? Interference?
Or it is just obsessive–compulsive disorder
Pretty sure i am not THAT crazy
I just want to ask you guys to do same test if you have same feeling as me?
Cheers.
P.S. mchose g3 ultra still have no problems in wireless mode unlike other expensive superlights and other razer crap
