Polling Rate induced Apex Stuttering Mouse Lag

Apex only stutters on my very capable windows 10 machine when my mouse is moved. Particularly at 1,000 hz polling rate for the mouse not at all tied to DPI or sensitivity but JUST polling rate the game will game breaking lag. The lag showcased is miniscule compared to in game gunfights "online" and absolutely make it unplayable. The lowering of polling rate only reduces instances but does not eliminate the problem.

Yes I have updated my mouse 4 times it just seems to not go away that little update warning HOWEVER it doesn't explain why low polling rate "fix" yet high poll breaks.

There is no known solution.
The most I've seen is questions asked about what we as players do to resolve (which hasn't been done) the issue only leading to the discovery the issue doesn't exist on controller or is reduced but not eliminated on a lowered polling rate.
I feel like the EA/Apex support teams especially the ones that are active on forums don't have any update on this issue or acknowledge it at all so I am sharing my experience to hopefully get some video proof and maybe some discussion from others with the same issue.

Frequently mentioned is the arrival of this issue alongside "hyperion" in the Easy Anti Cheat, I have no idea what that is but this issue is "new" and wasn't present in maybe season 12 and before for me.

The "blockyness" is due to the video recording software and isn't at all an issue in game. Just the stutter.

I set my polling rate at 250Hz and turned off EA/Steam overlay. It doesn't lag anymore.

Why has nobody fixed this? This issue has been present in many places for years.

Only figured this one out myself recently also, has been driving me absolutely batshit for the last year or more. What a relief it was to finally find the fix.

THIS IS INFURIATING HOLY CRAP. The amount of times i thought apex was broken, which it is, but wow this is... weird

[financytrade]

i thought it was a fps lag and i did everything but didnt work, thank you so much !!! helped!

[morfeyy-]

see now the problem is.. i paid like 50$ over the regular mice to have 8khz polling rate and i cant even fucking use it now? the hell is this bs.

[darkrobroy]

Omg this worked for me as well set it at 250 .... I was getting random micro stutters like lag spikes. 30 min of gaming and I didn't experience any for now ... gonna play some more

me somehow winning firefights on 125hz: "aw shit"

[megustaelpicoxd]

I have a logitech g603 and this also happens in league of legends, at least in my case I set the polling rate to 500.

[Kabanchikpro]

Also steelseries mouse and had the same problem )))) set the raat to 500 the problem disappeared) found the solution on reddit ) thanks for sharing)

I still have this problem even tho I changed my mouse I changed the polling rate to 250 and I still have the micro stutter

[DrFlexit]

I have a razer viper 8k and I am using 125hz polling rate. XD

[Hyper_]

Had a similar problem on half life 2 and war thunder of all games.

[Damian-cilr]

sad that the mouse im using has no settings app.because otherwise it is perfect.
this isnt an issue in just this game, for me its happening in scrap mechanic and minecraft

If you are still having this issue try closing GPU Tweak, I had this issue for a while in Apex and a few other games and this seemed to fix it.

[zbot.]

Lowerd my polling rate (Logitech g102) and i still have this problem.

[Zaxery]

dudeeee this worked im so happy, likes haha

[Memati]

Do you get gpu 100% usage with this lag, too?

[hurricane]

lol almost bought a new 1, 000 dollar GPU cuz of this issue. My polling was at 1000 by default. Went to 250, problem gone.

[mariankowalski]

FIXED!!! CHANGE USB PORT TO RED ONE ON YOUR MOTHERBOARD!!! IT HELPED ME!!! (also enable gpu and integer scaling it makes game smoother)
