I've got my DeathAdder set to 500mhz polling, should I have it on 1000mhz, is there much difference?

It depends on your mouse. My mouse performs worse at 1000Hz than 500Hz but yours may be the other way. Try it out and do some tests see which works best.

Thanks, I will give it a try and see which works best.

Mouse MAX DPI, in game sensitivity low

Logitech RX250. Cost like £6 from a certain online retailer. 800dpi. I don't need gaming mice to be good

Razor-BladE · 18 Jan 2012 at 09:34

Deathadder @ 1800dpi when in windows.
Usually bump it down to 900-1400 when gaming.

I used 1600 or 1800 on my Naga.

I don't like moving my arm.

Razer Abyssus, I have it at 1000mhz and 3500dpi generally, but I do change it from that to 1800dpi or 450dpi depending on which game I'm playing.

Using a g500 with 500 polling rate and 400/1000/2000 dpi for the on the fly switch. Generally it stays at 2000 but will drop it to one of the other two depending what i'm doing when in FPS games.

I use 300 DPI on my 5600 DPI Mamba.

trickycurve · 18 Jan 2012 at 10:47

I use a Kinzu at 800 DPI. I also use quite low sensitivities in games - e.g., my Source engine (CS:S and L4D2 mainly) sensitivity is 1.75.

If your cursor is jumping then either the computer has terrible video rendering or the mouse sensor is a crock of ****. I am currently using a 450 DPI mouse on a 1080 screen and there is no jumping. If there was I would be getting an RMA.

If you move the mouse fast,the cursor jumps, no?

G500 - 500 polling - 2200 dpi

If you mean the cursor moves from one side of the screen to the other without hitting EVERY pixel along the way then yes...on any mouse...on any DPI. That is how cursors work else your computer would require ridiculous amounts of video processing power to even barely use the desktop.

That has absolutely nothing to do with DPI. Methinks maybe you need to go and have a look at what DPI actually is. DPI =/= tracking speed no matter how much you seem to think it does.

Have you got mouse acceleration on?

The cursor shouldn't jump regardless. I think the only thing that can cause this effect is either mouse acceleration or monitor's refresh rate being too low to display the fast mouse tracking.
