TL;DR, when I use a mouse with a high polling rate, both my Mad Catz RAT7 and my Logitech G502 do this, my cpu usage spikes up about 20% and I see enormous drops in framerate for games like Overwatch and PUBG. At times, the CPU spike will even interfere with stuff like discord...
This is an effect of polling rate vs FPS, if you limit the FPS to 125 Hz it will look a lot smoother. You are right locked fps to 125 stops the stutter. Back in days everyone was using 125hz polling rate since it was default. Also games with higher fps than 125. It’s funny...
2. Get a mouse that supports a polling rate of 2000 or higher 3. set the polling rate to 2000 or higher 4. Move the mouse and watch the fps count 5. Watch the FPS and then set the mouse to a 1000 polling rate or lower and then watch the fps again ...
Experience supersmooth cursor control with the ROG Polling Rate Booster – a new ROG-exclusive accessory that offers up to true 8000 Hz wireless polling rates when used with compatible ROG mice.
A polling rate of 1,000 Hz is more than capable of handling most of the most popular FPS games. And as mentioned, performance enhancements are negligible for polling rates over 1,000 Hz. Besides, not every game is designed to handle an 8000Hz polling rate. So, before you click “...
So i just recently upgraded my rig from fx 8350 to a I7 6700k yesterday. Since then i was not able to get a stable frame-rate on games like
3. Sometimes even though you have prepared everything correctly, if the game you play uses an older engine you might also experience troubles since the game itself does not support high polling rate mice resulting in stutters and dropped FPS. 4. To properly saturate 4K Hz you will also have...
It's mostly to do with flick shots or quick camera movements, e.g. in an fps game, if you do a 180 degree spin, you have to slice the 1000hz polling rate between the each of the 180 degrees; whereas with 8000hz this slicing ends up making it much smoother because you have more ...
the MarkC mouse fix only reports 125Hz now, but MouseTester_v1.5.3 shows the full 8000Hz polling rate, so it looks like my system has the update and it's working as intended. I tested some games that were problematic at 8000Hz and I no longer have FPS drops or stuttering in them....
Runs perfect with any polling rate. Portal 1: Linux native OpenGL game. Runs perfect with any polling rate. Nier: Automata: Runs perfect with any polling rate. Maybe because the camera move extremely slow. Other people reporting this bug: Ultimate Doom FPS drops with higher mouse polling rate...
