Mouse performance drops online despite smoother offline experience
Mouse performance drops online despite smoother offline experience
I switched from the g402 to the Razer Deathadder v2. At first it worked well, but then I experienced some delays. I replaced the mouse with another Razer Deathadder v2, which also had the same problem. Now I suspect a hardware issue. The mouse becomes sluggish when I move the cursor in online apps like GeForce Now. The cursor lags, but once I switch to my desktop it stops. Still, the delay remains, making it feel like 75fps even though it should be smoother. In games, the lag isn’t as noticeable, especially with bots, but it’s still present. The mouse feels heavier and slower overall, not affected by VSYNC or screen changes. I’ve turned off all VSYNC settings and adjusted my monitor’s refresh rate, but nothing has changed. This issue is new to me. I’m sorry for the repeated explanations. Please help, I’ve been trying to fix it for over a year without success. Thank you!

This causes delays so your mouse actions aren't reflected instantly on your screen, as if they were processed locally. Your movement travels to the GeForce server, it's translated and sent back, creating a lag. The experience feels slow if the server is far or internet speed is poor. In short, you need a faster connection with low latency.
@miagisan Thank you for your answer. Btw my internet is good getting 20 ping on csgo and stuff but it feels like every mouse is delayed or something the snappiness is gone, The mouse cursor is like delayed by 0.001 seconds or something wich is really obvious in movement. This problem occured a year + ago wich was really unexpected. Just movement feels weirder than usual. I just installed geforce now today forgot to tell that but. You know that the cursor should be snappy wich it isnt here.

@miagisan Hello again! Geforce now was only an example, Let me say this The mouse is slow/floaty the way i mean it is that the mouse itself isnt snappy it feels like the mouse cursor is kind of out of position when aiming by the way. Gotta explain it a bit more let me say this... In desktop the mouse cursor is fine but you can still feel the unsmoothness, In game typically playing with bots a bit more noticeable lag But in online the delay is even abit worse than offline. 1. Desktop fine but the slowness/floaty is still noticeable. 2. In game playing with bots is a bit worse than cursor on desktop. 3. In online there the heavy/floaty feeling is worse. Thank you again!
I noticed something unusual but I installed Logitech gaming software before getting my Razer. I adjusted the DPI from 400 to 240 in that app now. My Razer mouse feels a bit smoother, but I can't lower the DPI further than 240. It seems like the Logitech app might have duplicated something to my mouse, which is strange.
