so, finally i got a PS3 and tested GIMX with BlackOps

My Hardware:
Core i5, Win7 64bit
Serial: FTDI, ATmega32u4
Mouse: Logitech MX518 (1800dpi i think)

What i noticed:
with 250Hz it jerks strongly. not playable
but even with 100Hz it still jerks slightly. Not only the crosshair while looking around. While running/sprinting it jerks too. Its like if i had a bad internet connection with a lot of short lags. In private matches (offline) i have the same.

With the Gamepad or even the FragFX it runs smoothly.

Whats my problem?
the old mouse? Win7?

What's your mouse polling rate?

yeah, the g400 works greate! Just one thing... i still can only select 250Hz, although i switched sampling rate to 1000Hz with the Logitech software.

And now a big thanks. With a good mouse (and input-lag free Monitor) GIMX works really greate. I played some matches and i it was nice. Greate work!

There are two different rates: the rate of your mouse and the rate of the adapter.

1000Hz is not really relevant as it consumes more cpu. There's no advantage over 500Hz.
