Should I get a Razer Viper with 8KHz polling rate? Not for the 8KHz, no, here's why
6,710Update: You can enable High Precision Mouse Input in Overwatch and it will work. 8000Hz feels good in there now. Thanks to BossKing in the comments!
Good news, Razer is selling the new Viper 8KHz at the same price! Bad news, I can't find games to use it in. Quake Champions is the best so far, but if you move the mouse really quickly from side to side ... even Quake Champions starts to have that issue I saw in Siege.
Seems like it's just too much for the engines to handle, so some just skip while others log the movements and then won't give you full control back until all have been executed (creating lag/or a really big smoothing feeling).
I recommend not using 8K polling rate mice until engines catch up or whatever is going on, I'm just going by what I've been told and seen in game. And even when it's perfected, it's not really that different or worth using.
1000Hz is fine for now. Hope that helps!
