I wasn't...not sure what's the point of a bunch of sarcasm and emote spam, but kinda stopped caring to ask if you even read the thread when you said "use low dpi"
Lol are you familiar, that pros use like 400-800 dpi? For precision, it is much better than high DPI! As there is only limited amount of pixels per inch, than mouse captures movements, using sub pixels, which is less precise! Pros move their hands quite quickly. It is not likely, that you wouldn't max polling rate. Also mouse events, which occur after each other will be captured faster ^^
Yeah problem is there are a lot of bottlenecks around way to the monitor, each system out of sync: usb controller polling, DPC latency, timer resolution. So if you play some game, which has hardcoded high input lag, it won't feel good. Because you have one part with super low input lag and than than other, which is laggy. So it feels inconsistent.Chief Blur Buster wrote: ↑01 Oct 2020, 10:20
Yes, Some Games Will Work Better at Lower Poll Hz
True, some games work better at 8KHz than others. For example, Valorant works so much better than CS:GO at high pollrate + high DPI. The 8000Hz mouse appears to have no smoothing at 3200dpi in Valorant, which means for high-DPI-supported games, 8000Hz 3200dpi 0.08 sensitivity versus 400dpi 0.64 sensitivity now feels identical at fast aimtrack speeds, but feels much better for slow aimtrack speeds. Unlike older games that are apparently high DPI unfrendly such as CS:GO. There's a lot of Pandora Boxes to open with 1000Hz / 2000Hz / 4000Hz / 8000Hz
Valorant is using Nvidia Reflex so it is optimal game for it. I wonder if 8k will be even big deal in other than competitive games and on lower hz than 360. It is mouse aimed at competitive gaming after all!
I wonder why do you test 0.64 sensitivity. You should never change sensitivity in game, if you don't want pixel skipping. I guess it was just for a reference. Whatever else than 1.00 feels absolutely terrible!!!
Btw did you heard about prioritizing interrupts for a system timer? I gave it a try and now mouse feels more consistent and round (circular movements feel better!) on a 500hz, 0.5ms timer - which is inconsistent. As sometimes you miss resolution timer window and have to wait another 499us max. I was using 1ms in past, because it feels more consistent on 500hz and i should start again honestly Otherwise, i am not sure, if 8k will be even that good. Because already at 1000hz, it captures even smallest movements and precision suffers.
Tho you can always try lower your sensitivity. And it doesn't feel good, when there are other latencies. On 360hz, with Nvidia Reflex. It might be a entirely different matter.
