What is Keyboard Polling Rate?
Polling rate (measured in Hz) determines how often your keyboard sends input signals to your computer:
- 125Hz (8ms delay) - Standard for most office keyboards
- 250Hz (4ms) - Better for casual gaming
- 500Hz (2ms) - Good for competitive gaming
- 1000Hz (1ms) - Best for professional gamers (may increase CPU usage)
How to Test:
- Press any key repeatedly as fast as you can
- After 5+ presses, your polling rate will be calculated
- For best results, test for 10-15 seconds
