I am about to buy my first tablet for Osu and school. Is there still this huge problem with the CTL 490 going around or is it already fixed? I would prefere the 490 because of the size, but if there is a huge amount of input lag i could deal with a smaller one.

Thanks in advance :)

As far as I know, the input lag still exists to the same extent as before.

ain't ctl-480 the same size?

Yeah, but it's a little expensive on ebay.

Is there anyone that uses the ctl 490 or is it really that bad of a tablet for osu?

Is there a reason that the 490 has lag and the 480 doesn't?

probably wacmon trying to make drawing itself smoother but because of that, the ctl-490 has input lag; maybe downgrading to old drivers might fix it?

according to the happystick video I watched, you should use these drivers:

This driver doesn't work on 490 afaik.
Downgrading will not help you with input lag
It exist because wacom did for draw not play (e-mail that they sent me when i asked)
Input lag still exist BUT it's minimal (personal opinion since i have one)
Still able to play DT with that lag if you get used to it
Drag = no input lag.

EDIT1: I would recommend if you're looking for a tablet to play from Wacom, the CTL471, has input lag aswell but it's literally almost nothing.

i use the CTL 490, i also hover, and i have never experienced input lag. i have used it for nearly a year now, never had to use fixmypen or whatever. the drivers that i am using are the 6.3.20-7. though, most players who own or have tried the 490 still experience input lag.
