Acceleration
Acceleration is an internal filter of the driver, and is primarily a legacy option for low dpi mice users.
With acceleration enabled, the faster you swipe the mouse, additional movement is added. Windows XP
has acceleration turned on by default as a convenience for users assuming that everyone will have
400dpi mice, but this will likely be a hindrance to most gamers and precision users who require greater
accuracy. The 'acceleration off' option (default) turns off internal acceleration only and does not affect
Windows XP acceleration, which can be turned off via the Control Panel, Mouse, Pointer Options, and
unselecting 'Enhance Pointer Precision'. You can activate acceleration by checking the "Enable
Acceleration" box and moving the arrow along the slider.
Polling Rate
The polling rate determines the time intervals that the PC retrieves data from your mouse. A higher
value would mean shorter intervals and therefore less latency. You can switch between 125Hz (8ms),
500Hz (2ms) and 1000Hz (1ms) by clicking on the individual polling rate buttons.
