holy crap 2000 Hz is already pretty overkill.
im gonna stay at 500 Hz since anything more makes my low end mouse sensor pretty crazy+
DamnEasyWhat would this do?
overclocking the USB polling rate decreases the negative acceleration of the mouse! heres a good video to explain what negative acceleration is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgbWWTanmQk
its kinda like the top speed at wich your mouse sensor detects movement. so maybe with 125 Hz you can 360 in 20cm swowly but moving the mouse fast causes you to turn less
That said having polling rate too high above default settings can cause jitter or other problems !
SetsulAnyway what you get (if your mouse even suppports >1000Hz) is higher CPU load and therefore lower polling precision. Oh wait you were asking for what this improves. Uhm, the number is higher?
getting mouse input more often. and yeah this could affect cpu performance with very old CPUs
not a big deal at all this days... 1000hz means you're making the system check the mouse EVERY 1ms!
most cheap mice are 125 Hz by default, a default that was set a looong time ago.
