Nah the page is outdated, I saw on Reddit they also forgot about certs 77 days ago already

Ah, my friend happens to have the exact same mouse. Unfortunately, we tested it, and apparently the wireless dongle it’s using already polls at 1000 Hz aka bInterval 1 (probably the dongle was made with wider mouse model support range in mind), so unfortunately we weren’t able to overclock it at all with this method… :( (we only did his Sony DualSense controller) Well, that’s unless you’d happen to have a different revision or something where that maybe wouldn’t apply? Also I see it has USB-C plus and I’m embarrassed to admit we didn’t try that, so who knows xD

He saw how 1000 Hz feels on my machine and said he wants to replace his mouse ever since, since that smoothness feeling has stuck in his mind ever since lol

Lower effective input latency, higher input smoothness (the latter perceivable probably only on displays with higher refresh rates). That’s of course only for USB input devices (gamepads, mice, maybe keyboard), as for other types of devices idk.

But do note that only some devices will allow you to do this. For gamepads, the site gamepadla.com has a bunch of OC results made by Windows gamers. For mice, I saw some threads on some forums at some point (my mouse is natively 1000 Hz, so I didn’t focus on this)

EDIT: But like the difference can be really perceivable, it’s not a placebo. Especially on something like 240 Hz screen, the difference between say 125 Hz and 1000 Hz polling is just jarring. But it’s rare a 125 Hz mouse could be brought up this much, usually its sensor wouldn’t even be precise enough if it was shipped at such low polling.

But for example my controller could be overclocked from 250 to 1000, but 500 was the sweet spot in how it felt, while at 1000 it was unstable with some lags from time to time. But 500 was working perfectly and felt smoother.

Also notably the PS5’s DualSense can be overclocked from 250 to 1000 Hz (people claim 8000, but apparently it’s actually a lie)

oh bruh i meant gtk3/4 haha sorry
