Roccat Savu - Unstable poling rate

post #1 of 28

Thread Starter 
I get unstable poling rate at 500hz setting, loops every five seconds from 500hz to ~560hz which remains for another five seconds and back. Tested with all available firmware and driver versions. This remains also on different machines. The same behaviour at 125hz setting, which jumps to ~137hz in same interval.

Any ideas?

1000Hz?

If that looping is a problem, you could also block the updates via software with the ngohq's "hack".

With 1000hz my m1/m2 buttons freeze sometimes ingame, and stop beeing active until i press each again. Super annoying. I dont have drivers installed atm and the loop is still present. What ngohq hack? tongue.gif

Edit: hidusbf? - its like the g400 resistent. :x

@Dems do you have stable rates with your Savu?

Hi,

I can not re-produce your results.

1.)
The m1/m2 do not freeze with 1000Hz.
What game / OS did you experience this?


2.)
Depending on the test tool results vary.

I think it is faulty hardware. Have you tried contacting Roccat tech support? They are very responsive.

Hi smile.gif,

thx for that info.

1.) Quake Series 1,3, defrag <- (is imo a reliable way to test a mouse for constancy) and other fps. / Win7 home 64bit.

2.) Mouse Rate Checker seemed to me trustworthy, now i see your point.



MRC and Savu= 5 Second +/- 10-15% rate change. dimr: "obviously" stable rate. Now the strange thing is i dont have button freezes with my aby@1000hz. Last time i have expirienced those freezes @1000hz was in xp/c2d6300@stock clock times, now i use a i5 2500k @ stock. I actually prefer 500hz atm, and here the savu "feels".. "non-seamless". sad-smiley-002.gif

The complete button freeze is a miracle to me. The info is buffered and would be re-sent even if missed in the next packet. Meaning 1 or 2ms delay (1000Hz, 500Hz).
You have the same issues with 1000Hz and the savu?

Can you describe that whole "freeze of buttons" in more detail? What time period are we talking?

Even if the polling rate would be unstable between 500 and 550 it should not be noticable at all and still feel "seamless".

I assume you dont have the chance to test the same unit on a different PC or a different Savu on your pc?

Freeze o.b. situation: happens to me ingame about every 3-7 minutes that either the m1 or* m2 freezes (remains active- fires etc.) until i click it again, im not 100% sure here but i think it is related with fast mousemovement/actions, for example when i do rocket jumps, or fast swipes and very shortly after it use either m1 or m2, this is the typical situation. This with the Savu only when set at 1000hz.

*sry, my bad

Yes i have already done that, my neighbours pc (win7Pro32) another (win7 64 bit) pc and my pc tongue.gif. All with the same results.
