The mouse ranking and the differences
I have tested a total of 6 different mice so far. Among them are the ASUS ROG Chakram Core (USB bound), the Logitech G203 Prodigy (USB bound), the Sharkoon Light² 200 and Light² 100 (USB bound), the Sharkoon SGM3 (dongle and USB cable) and the ASUS ROG Pugio II (USB cable, USB dongle and Bluetooth). And this is how the current rankings look!
All mice were of course tested at 1000 Hz polling rate. The exception here is the ASUS ROG Pugio II in Bluetooth mode. Here the polling rate is limited to 125 Hz, which can also be seen in the latency. ASUS currently leads the charts with the ROG Chakram Core and Sharkoon’s SGM3, which is getting on in years, is at the bottom. At least with the Sharkoon SGM3 it makes no difference whether you use it with the USB cable or the dongle. The difference whether with or cable doesn’t matter with the ASUS ROG Pugio II either. Even if you can measure a ms here, no one will notice and if you lose while gaming, it wasn’t because of the mouse. Otherwise, non-swimmers might as well blame it on their swim trunks!
Conclusion
With NVIDIA LDAT version 2 you can measure all mouse latencies as well as system latencies. Measuring system capable! At this point, I can officially attest to a latency-free wireless experience – for all the mice I tested – that come with both USB cable and dongle. The differences between an ASUS ROG Chakram Core and a Sharkoon Light² 100 – as an example – are vanishingly small. Here you have to decide for yourself: Do I as a casual gamer absolutely need a mouse that is 4 ms faster? Is that fact alone worth the extra cost? Personally, I don’t just look at latency, there are a few other things that play a role. Man forges his own destiny.
In future mouse tests, I will of course expand the hit list, as I myself am curious whether there are even better or faster mice on the market. Probably so, but I can’t buy them all just to test them out. Unfortunately, the purse and also the space at home does not give it! I think it’s good that NVIDIA has made it possible to get something like this measurable without a lot of rocket science or soldering cables to the mouse button. Finally, it occurs to me that if mouse clicks can be recorded and measured, why not keyboard key clicks as well? On that note, I have to make a phone call.. See you on the forum!
NVIDIA LDAT V2 was provided to me by NVIDIA with no strings attached. There was no influence on the article or the tests at any time!
