UPDATE 2 | Fixed input lag and floaty mouse with UPS

Separate area for niche lag issues including unexpected causes and/or electromagnetic interference (ECC = retransmits = lag). Interference (EMI, EMF) of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction latencies like a bad modem connection. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI. Please read this before entering sub-forum.

Still working for you OP?
Yup, he hasn’t been on the forum since February, he is out enjoying his game now πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
I'm going to give it a shot next month and report back, or even a battery, but gaming on it for 3 hours is not really a solution.

Playing RTS games for example is no longer enjoyable, since I upgraded, the mouse just feels very sluggish and heavy, and an overal increased input lag too, it's pretty obvious when I'm on my low end laptop, compared to my high end PC.

I know for a fact my country has electrical problems in general, and this is confirmed by another guy on this forum who stays in belgium for work, apparently. (I had no issues in france)

Has anyone tried 8k polling rate with motion sync? How did that affect the mouse tracking?
