Razer HyperPolling Wireless Gaming Technology

WHY DOES HYPERPOLLING MATTER?
Latency is an issue that affects all gamers, and this innovation allows our mice and keyboards to achieve ultra-low latency connections. As validated through blind tests, many pro players have noticed a significantly smoother and more responsive gaming experience with Razer HyperPolling.

A FRAME-BY-FRAME BREAKDOWN
Compared to other peripherals that have an average polling rate of 1000 Hz, Razer HyperPolling gear with an 8000 Hz polling rate can report up to 8 times more data per second from device to PC, achieving a huge input delay reduction from 1 to 0.125 ms.

What does it mean
-
Better Mouse Aim
Smoother, more up-to-date cursor positions with no annoying micro‑stutters -
Faster Keyboard Inputs Greater response for sharper in-game movement and execution

Software
- Ensure that your firmware version is v2.0 and above.
- our device's current firmware version and available updates can be viewed on its respective 'Setting' page in Razer Synapse. Download the latest firmware for your device.
- Disable software that runs an overlay or injects kernel level drivers.
- This applies to drivers for installed devices and drivers for 3rd party software running in the background.
- Ensure the correct in-game settings are enabled.
- Some examples are the ‘Raw Input Buffer’ in Valorant and ‘High Precision Mouse Input’ in Overwatch.
- Shut down any non-essential applications that are keeping your CPU busy.
- Set a lower polling rate for Razer HyperPolling (4000 or 2000 Hz).
- Some game engines, particularly in older titles, simply cannot handle high polling rate devices well, as they were never designed with such devices in mind.
- Disable ‘Enhance Pointer Precision’ in the Windows control panel.
- This setting may cause the mouse sensitivity to feel much lower than the set value.
- Ensure you are using the latest version of Windows 11.
- The Windows 11 Moment 3 (KB5027303) update introduces optimizations specifically for high report rate devices, which includes all of our HyperPolling-enabled gaming mice.
HARDWARE
HyperPolling Wired
- Ensure the peripheral is directly connected to a native USB port on your PC.
- Ensure the HyperPolling Dongle is in line of sight of your mouse and within a 30 cm range.
- Ideally, it should also be as far as possible from any active USB 3 hubs, which can generate 2.4 GHz signal noise that interferes with wireless performance.
- Ensure other wireless devices near the mouse are switched to 5 GHz mode (where applicable) or connected via cable.
- By freeing up more bandwidth on 2.4 GHz, your mouse will have a cleaner wireless environment that allows it to perform to its fullest potential.
- In some instances, your PC may not be powerful enough to support Razer HyperPolling.
- For CPU-bound cases, the computer might lack the resources needed to process 8,000 reports a second.
- If you are experiencing any issues, try to unplug/replug your device.
