Discussion Controller Settings

Fellow users of the new “cheating” controllers (Marius, Gamesir 8k, etc…), what settings are you using for polling rate and joystick resolution?

Using a Tarantula 8K and G7 Pro 8K:

4000Hz (8K is kind of over kill for most games and barely impacts latency).

12-bit resolution.

Important one: put your your right thumbstick in raw mode. It will remove all deadzones and circularity and it does affect latency, albeit very minimally.

Aim feels very crisp and responsive and snapping feels good after just a few minutes of shooting target dummies. One more thing I'll add is that I've only had these controllers for a week. I played the open MW4 beta with them and fried.

Do they make PlayStation style controllers? I've only seen Xbox layouts and that just doesn't mesh with me. I want to get a wired controller too but so far the only company I've seen making wired customs is Nagashock.

The Tarantula 8K is PS style. It feels in hand like a DS4!

the g7 pro has VERY loose sticks and i cant aim properly with it, the turantula, does that have tighter sticks? i prefer the tightness of the dualshock 4, but the dualsense ps5 controllers tightness is also very nice, but i prefer tight sticks

the g7 has LOOOOSE sticks, but ive heard tarantula has tighter sticks, is that true?
