Smart Tips to Improve Mouse Frame Drops
Scenario 1: No frame drops when wired, only when wireless
Try the following steps in order:
1. Update firmware
Note: If everything is working fine, try not to update the firmware.
Ensure your mouse firmware is up to date. Follow the upgrade instructions carefully – do not disconnect or unplug the mouse during the process.
2. Use the original data cable
Use the original thicker or shorter data cable.
3. Connect the receiver correctly
Plug the receiver cable directly into a black USB port on your computer (motherboard native USB 2.0 port). Do not use hubs, docking stations, or other expansion devices.
4. Check the cable condition
Make sure the data cable has not been repeatedly bent or tightly bundled.
5. Reduce 2.4GHz interference
Keep high-bandwidth wireless devices (e.g., routers) away from the mouse, or disable their 2.4GHz band.
6. Check mouse feet
Use original mouse feet, or third-party feet of the same thickness as the originals.
7. Ensure sufficient battery
Keep battery level above 20%.
8. Turn off Competition Mode
Try disabling Competition Mode in the driver software.
9. Try a different mouse pad
Test with another mouse pad.
10. Adjust LOD height
Modify the LOD (lift‑off distance) parameter in the driver.
11. Eliminate other wireless devices
Temporarily turn off other wireless mice and unplug their receivers.
12. Try a different USB port
Attempt plugging the receiver into another USB port on your computer.

As excited as I am for #GTAVI, I just wish @RockstarGames remastered #GTAIV for current consoles. Everything kept the same, just 4K, 60FPS, ray tracing and some graphical improvements. This game was way ahead of its time, and deserves a remaster.

STALKER 2 had a rough launch, but its performance level has increased greatly in patch 1.7, despite little notice from the developer - and the apparent absence of a major Unreal Engine version update.
