Comment on Is Windows 11 decent yet?
dandroid@dandroid.app 10 months agoDid they ever fix the bug with high polling rate mice where the computer would become extremely non responsive if you tried dragging a window? I used Windows 11 for 6 months and they wouldn’t fix that issue, so I wiped it clean and installed Windows 10.

Is polling rate the same as dpi? If so I can test it later today because my nose has adjustable dpi.

No, it’s different. The polling rate is how frequently the mouse reports its movement to the OS. What was happening was when you drag a window around the screen, it was drawing the desktop each time the mouse reported back to the OS, 1000Hz, which was apparently too much for my 3080TI to handle.
Razer Synapse lets you change the polling rate, so I was able to lower it to the standard 10Hz and workaround this issue, but I bought an expensive mouse because I wanted more precise mouse movement for gaming.
