FAQs

What is the polling rate, and why is it important?

The polling rate is how often the mouse sends data to the computer. A higher polling rate (like the OP1 8k's 8000Hz) means less delay and more responsive movement. This is crucial for competitive gaming.

What DPI setting should I use?

DPI (dots per inch) determines cursor sensitivity. Experiment with different DPI settings in the Endgame Gear software to find what feels most comfortable for your gameplay style and monitor resolution.

Can I use the mouse on any surface?

The OP1 8k works best on a quality mousepad. A hard or cloth mousepad provides the best performance and glide. Avoid using it directly on reflective or uneven surfaces.

How do I change the polling rate?

You can change the polling rate through the Endgame Gear software. You can also change the polling rate by long pressing the mode button located on the bottom of the mouse.

Are the switches hot-swappable?

Yes, the main button switches are hot-swappable, allowing you to customize the click feel without soldering.

Troubleshooting

Mouse is not recognized by the computer.

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected. Try a different USB port. If the problem persists, try another computer to determine if the issue is with the mouse or the original computer.

Mouse cursor stutters or lags.

Check the polling rate setting in the Endgame Gear software. Ensure the polling rate is set to a suitable level for your PC, as higher rates demand more processing power. Close unnecessary applications to free up system resources.

Buttons are not responding.

Check the button assignments in the Endgame Gear software. Reset the mouse to default settings. If the issue persists, the switch might be faulty.

Mouse feels uncomfortable.

Experiment with different grip styles. Adjust the DPI settings to find a comfortable sensitivity. Consider using different skate sets to optimize glide.
