8000Hz Polling Rate Explained in 60 Seconds
USB peripherals like mice and keyboards work by sending little packets of data hundreds or thousands of times per second to your computer. Those packets could contain what keys are pressed on your keyboard, or where your mouse has moved to. For most gaming peripherals those packets are sent 1000 times per second - or 1000 Hz. That’s been the standard for a long time, but new mice and keyboards from companies like Razer and Corsair have pumped those rookie numbers up to 4,000 or even 8,000Hz. For mice that means input lag is now just 0.125 to 0.25ms which is a big deal for gaming, and it means your mouse movements are tracked much more smoothly - instead of large jerky movement at 1000 Hz, your computer gets EIGHT times more updates, which makes tracking more accurate.
