Hello this is the Provoked Prawn and did you know that you can improve the Razer Viper v2 Pro
with an additional purchase now this is already a fantastic mouse for a number of different reasons
weighing in at just 58 grams is one of the lightest mice around it also has some other
awesome specs including a 30 000 max DPI optical switches Gen 3 raises optical switches packed
inside there are guaranteed up to 90 million clicks has 750 IPS and 70 g's max acceleration and
it's comparable with the Logitech Superlight which I've done a video on recently to compare these two
they are both fantastic mice but the Viper v2 Pro is potentially awesome for a number
of different reasons now as standard this has a thousand Hertz polling rate which means it has
a fast connection to the PC you could upgrade it by slapping on some grip tape but what you
can do is make it even better with an additional purchase now this is an extra cost but this is
Razer's hyper-polling wireless dongle this is a dongle that's designed to work with this mouse
and some other yet to be announced mice are coming soon and allows you to improve the mouse
by increasing the polling rate so as standard the mass has a thousand Hertz polling rate but
with this dongle connected you can get up to four thousand Hertz that obviously reduces the click
latency and lowers that to improve the overall performance and the connectivity to your PC
now Razer says with some data that I'll link in the description but essentially the dongle gives
you a much more solid connection four thousand Hertz polling rate you can get a 0.511 millisecond
click latency from the mouse that is basically halved from the one millisecond that you get with
a thousand Hertz polling rate and even better than other mice which Razer claims have 1.4 millisecond
1000 Hertz polling rate and wireless mice so you're getting a lot better performance out of
this now this dongle essentially replaces the standard 2.4 gigahertz wireless dongle that you
get with the Viper v2 Pro you can see it's quite a bit larger but the logic is basically the same
you will need your USB-C cable in order for this to work though because obviously the standard
dongle plugs into your PC this dongle you need to plug in using the USB-C cable now this has several
advantages in that this dongle also has an LED indicator on it so when you plug it in and load
up synapse you have to go through a connection where you're basically pairing the two devices
you put your mouse into pairing mode and then you connect up the dongle and then you can use it
this dongle is then placed on your desk and you'll see it as a rubberized underside so it doesn't
slip around and it has an LED indicator on it will let you know when the connection is happening
but it also can be changed so the LED indicator will let you know when your mouse is running
low on battery which is pretty Neat as a nice addition to that and you can also tweak some
other settings that I'll show you in a second the other benefit of this is because that dongle is
plugged into the cable you can essentially put the cable on your desk within range and then
when your mouse is running low you just unplug the dongle and plug the cable into your mouse
charge your mouse back up until you need to and then unplug the cable plug it back into the dongle
and then it will automatically reconnect and then you can carry on using your mouse with improved
performance and the 4 000 Hertz polling rate will use more processing power on your PC but it does
give you a faster connection which should give you the edge theoretically in competitive games
so here we are in synapse and you can see there are two different devices listed so you have the
mouse as standard and the hyper polling dongle as well now if you click into the dongle you'll
see you can't really do much in here in terms of what you can change but you will notice that the
in indicator I was talking about connection status is standard we'll show you a white
indicator click on the bat and that will show you your battery status screen green 100 yellow
66 orange 33 and red is zero showing you it's getting low or you can have battery warning only
so it'll be blinking red when the mouse is nearing charging a very nice additional thing to show off
and to use but if you go back into synapse and then click on the mouse
and then go into performance you can see that your polling rate options have increased
up to 4 000. you will notice that it says higher polling rate of core more processing
power which may reduce frame rates when playing CPU bound games so that's worth bearing in mind
you can go up to 2000 if you want so you can go change between those two obviously 4000's the best
performance but one of the things that you can do which is also potentially useful is that you can
customize so you could set up for example to have a new profile so we can add a profile in there
we can create a performance calibration so it's 4 000 Hertz and then you can go into your profiles
and you can link games so for example we can change this so it's 4 000 Hertz
and then we'll change this one so it's 1 000 Hertz and that way if you have a
CPU bound game that you don't want to cause your systems lag you can switch between them
and then you can link a specific game so let's just choose ready or not
for this purpose so we're now going to use 4 000 Hertz I'm ready or not and that will automatically
switch to that mode when we launch that game and maybe you want to change games so let's say
no man's sky we don't really need 4000 Hertz so we could just say to go to a thousand Hertz instead
uh obviously not as fast clicking you won't need click latency in there too much it's a bit more
of a relaxed game but if you want to play already or not or something more serious so we can get in
here and we could obviously add modern warfare as another option you can pop those games in and then
it'll switch to those modes so you can use some optimization logic to that but there you go a
interesting way to upgrade the mouse and get a better performance out of it and a really
fantastic mouse yes it's a bit more expensive now with that additional purchase does give you a much
faster response and a lower click latency this has been the Provoked Prawn thanks for watching this
