I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum for this silly question, but since I can't find a better one, lets just begin:
So I found an old Wacom tablet (I think it is called "Wacom XD 1212-u") in my basement a few days ago and experimented with it on osu.
I really like playing with a tablet and thing I will permanently change to it (while playing osu that is) but I'm kind of scared I'm not getting the best performance out of it because its very old.
My question is if you guys think (since there is nothing on the internet about the tablet) if it has any disadvantages compared to for osu common used Wacom tablets (such as the hover hight, its pen, its latency, its refresh rate, its resolution (if tablets work that way?)...).
Keep in mind that raw imput doesn't work with it since the cursor will just get stuck in the upper-left corner, and that it has a slight delay when switching from hovering to dragging, which was a problem for many other osu players with tablets a few years ago but non of the fixes that helped them, worked for me.
So if I can use it without problems (except for the raw imput and freezing when touching the screen ones), since its huge (see link below) I can't just use full screen area and have no ideal what size to use, so could you guys give me any preferences (what pro players or you (no offense) use) or details of the size of your tabletscreen?
And can you guys give me a recommendation what tablet to buy with < or = 100 euros if the old one is trash.

Thanks in advance!

That's just a known problem of WIN10. Read about it here. I don't know a fix about the freeze thing but there could be one I just don't know of.
You can use each tablet, especially Wacom is cool and good to use from what I've heard. You don't see someone using such a big area but it's possible (ich benutze eine Area von 29x18cm tho)

Also this might be a topic for G&R instead of Help.

Thanks for the reply!
It seems I can't delete the post so is it allowed to post the same post in G&R?
