Mouse delay using tri-monitor

Post by valkyller »

Hi guys, I'm new here and I really need help about this annoying problem.

It's been a month I installed this set and it's looks so awesome and runs like hell, my 2x GTX670 works perfectly fine on every game, but I have a little problem.
The mouse doesn't work properly, It have a small delay, but it disorients me completely at the time when I gotta shot. If i change the res from 5760x1080 to 4098x768 or lower, even at 1920x1080, the mouse works perfectly fine and respond normally.
I'm using Razer Deathadder 3.5g, without accel, 1000hz and 2000dpi, and works fine, just when I use the max resolution, turns very badly. Even I tried with the Logitech G9x, and got the same results.

Is this normal or it's something with my monitors?

Hi, what monitors are you using?
Could it be display input lag that makes it feel like the mouse is slow?
Does the mouse feel slow when running 5760x1080 at the windows desktop or just in games?
If its just in games, have you turn down some graphics options in game to be able to run at 5760x1080, are you getting a good frame rate?

Hi mate, thanks for the answer.
I got these monitors: SyncMaster TA550 (Left + Connected as HDMI in the first GPU) / SyncMaster S23B350 (Middle + Connected as DVI in the first GPU) / SyncMaster P2350 (Right + Connected as DVI in the second GPU).

The mouse delay only affects during the games, and besides, I tried changing the DPI from 400 to the max, 3500, and still got the same results. And games like Payday 2, Saints Row IV, Battlefield 3, SC Blacklist, CoD BO2, etc. they work 60fps+ and got this mouse delay.

Isn't this one of those famous NV surround quirks where all displays don't have the same sync rate and such? He is using nvidia's and different monitors. Don't know enough about that myself as I use ATI, but it might be something you want to look after in your quest in solving this problem.

What you could also experience is the acceleration kicking in. It is weird however you only notice this in the full resolution, as that would be a problem across the board I think.
I always apply MarkC's mousefix; link when I install my system to avoid this. Especially Call of Duty has this bad with high DPI mouses. However I don't think this is it as it doesn't occur when you are in a lower resolution.

What I recently had with my logitech g500; Next to mouse lag I had "lag" across the entire system due to usbport.sys having incredibly high DPC execution times. When you get that mouse lag, does sound "skip" or "drag" for a second? Or does it seem like you have a lot of packet loss (while you know that can't be the case)

Yeah, I tried even with the MarkC's mousefix and didn't change nothing.
When I move the mouse, it feels slow movement and answer, doesn't skip at all.
Could it be too of using HDMI? Like I said before, I got 2 monitors on DVI and one in HDMI, and maybe can cause some weird sync, i don't really know much about this.

no, this should not be caused by HDMI. even if you use active adapters, the conversion is done nearly instant!
Or do you only have the slow mouse on One monitor or on all Monitors?

at first glance i'd say thats a problem with Steam Overlay. but you're playing BF3 which is Origin, right?

If you have 30-40gb free space on your hard drive (or even better another drive) you could parallel install a fresh/clean version of Windows, download new drivers and try out 1-2 games.
We gonna send it to outa space!

I have it on all monitors. I even tried disabling the Steam Overlay and didn't change nothing.
Besides, I already reformat my computer, like a week, from win 7 to win 8, and is still the same thing.
Tried the last Nvidia drivers WHQL 320.49, and now I'm using 326.98, nothing :/

This probably wont work but which usb are you using, usb3 or usb2?
Try plugging the mouse into the other port... (I had a gaming keyboard which could not use usb3)

Um, I only have usb 2.0.

The only thing I can do but I only expect nothing, is changing the connection of the monitors and the mouse too or using a generic mouse.
