Hi, I have the same problem, I bought my pc 3 months ago and yet the mouse moves inaccurate and its really annoying cuz I can t play fps games like this.
Did u guys find the problem?

no, we just keep getting heaps of new users making one post and never coming back, and they never answer questions -.-

some really basic stuff like your monitor resolution and refresh rate (and checking it's actually set to use its max refresh rate) your mouse, mouse DPI settings and mousepad... we cant even get people to answer that

This is prevalent behavior all over the Internet, not just here at TechPowerUp, not just technology forums, and not just recently.

These drive-by one-hit wonders have easily been going for 7-8+ years. It also coincides when the number of people using search engines for basic inquiries started declining.

Poorly composed inquiry. Scant information. No reply to requests for additional detail. No followup if someone's advice worked. No contribution to the community. No gratitude.

I see this selfish behavior all over the Web. Sadly it's really no different on a cooking Q&A forum.

It's a basic lack of manners. Me, me, me. Now, now, now. Take, take, take.

Look at the "what ___ should I buy?" questions. Often there is NO BUDGET and NO USAGE CASE. "Which car should I buy?" leads to "Do you have a budget? Do you have family? Do you care about gas mileage?"

If it bothers you, you should consider quitting moderation. There is zero indication that it will get any better.

Following OneMoars reminder, thread locked.

This is the 2nd or third on the same topic, and its always new users over and over without any information.

If you have a problem and want help, make a new thread for your own issue - and give us all the details! the hardware models, the settings you have applied, and pics of the setup.
We cant help by guesswork alone, especially when its 20 different users talking over each other.
