i just got a new keyboard, and when i tried to use it to play osu mania my accuracy was worse than normal. i tested my keyboard latency using an online test, clicking each keyboard 4 times and averaging it. my old keyboards average latency was 10.75 ms, while my new keyboards average latency was 34.5. how bad is this and should i try getting used to my new keyboard or simply keep using the old one? i just switched from an office laptop to a 165hz gaming laptop and was able to adapt pretty quickly. btw my old keyboard was the ducky one 2 mini which was said to have high keyboard latency, so my new keyboard having 3x more latency based on my test is.. concerning

its a local brand so i doubt that youll know this, noir n1/x. i cant seem to find any latency test of it online

It looks to be 1000hz polling so it's definitely not the keyboard introducing latency.

Are you using it wired or wireless?

From the looks of it, it looks like the keyboard runs with some type of software application or something?

Do you have that running while you are playing the game or is it always on in the background, it is necessary to have it running... etc?

You have the updated drivers associated with the keyboard and its software, yeah?

It isnt a software exactly, its a website that allows you to change key mappings and lighting effects. It isnt necessary to keep it running, and i havent used the software yet

Ive never updated my keyboard drivers. I tried to update my keyboard drivers earlier, but i saw 6 of hid keyboard device in my device manager, and didnt know which to update
