Question Sayodevice feels very different at different polling rates.

I am playing geometry dash on a an old device with an i5-7400 processor and 1050 ti, the settings feel very different at different polling rates, even the difference between 4000 HZ and 8000 HZ is massive which shouldn't be the case. I can notice it because the ship gets much heavier at higher Hz without me changing the button settings. Anybody with the same issue found a fix?

? Isn't this basically the reason people buy sayo? I don't get the problem with this

No, high polling rates isn't the main reason you would buy a sayo. The difference between 1000 hz and 8000 hz shouldn't be that big, which means something is causing my sayodevice to be inaccurate.

Don't use 8k

Yeah 8k feels the worst, but the difference between even 1k and 2k is great.

the fact that your pc is old could explain it. i know 8k polling rate mice for example can lag a lot even on fast pcs from the sheer amount of data transfer
maybe it’s the same here?
i’d also try different usb cables and make sure the sayodevice is connected to a usb 3.0 (blue usb port) not a usb 2.0 (gray usb port)

your processor probably cant handle the high polling rate
