FAQ

Polling Rate FAQ

+ What is polling rate?

Polling rate is how often the mouse reports movement to the computer, in Hz. 1000 Hz means about one report per millisecond.

+ How do I run the test?

Lock the pointer and move the mouse steadily. The page estimates Hz from the timing of those reports.

+ Why is the number below the rate I set?

A browser estimate can sit under the firmware rate. USB hubs, wireless dongles, and background load also drop reports.

+ Does this work for 4000 Hz and 8000 Hz mice?

You can run it. The browser may not show the full firmware rate. Treat the result as a check, not a lab measurement.

+ Do I need an account?

No. The tool runs in your browser. There is no signup, and the result shows on this page.
