Ultimate Controller Overclocking Guide-Less Input Delay Measured

[@cjhutson7133]

bro is the goat of overclocking this video was so easy to follow and i got it figured out from start to playing in one hour

[@Gr00t]

Melee players have been doing this for ages for GameCube controllers, didn't know you could do it for modern controllers.

[@kotztotz3530]

So there is an update to overclocking software. You can now go up to 8k HZ. But I tested a PS5 controller on the 2k, 4k, and 8k settings and noticed that the polling rate software only senses that the controller can go up to 2k HZ. TLDR: I tested the updated OC software, 2k Hz is the highest the PS5 controller can handle to be OC'ed.

[@jamesmatushin5457]

Unless you have a really good pc 8k hz will make your game stutter and cause fps drops

[@kotztotz3530]

@@jamesmatushin5457 Correct, I don't think it is worth it. 8K is pretty pointless anyway. Personally I think 4K is also pointless. After 2K, it's very diminishing returns.

[@americasass3674]

Hey man do we know if the scuf envision pro controller can be overclocked?

[@chell6022]

Thank you for showing me how to test input delay, and most importanly, thanks for all the developers who made these amazing programs.

this is the very first video ive seen and was super helpful....love the video and the comedy.

Windows has had native ZIP support since WIndows ME--i.e., for over 22 years. I'm blown away that you were in any way uncertain about it.

[@Landonio]

Hey Kevin, I got a question. I'm aware you can not overclock a controller for console. However, is it possible to overclock a USB converter (like a Brook adapter) on your PC, and then carry that over to a console and connect a controller to it? Or is that also not possible. Thanks!

[@shawnpatton6795]

Wow and dude never answered figures wow

[@shadows493]

No it’s not

[@gtsport3881]

Dude thank you so much for sharing that link video about the Digital Signature Error. The method in that video fix my problem. Let you know I been looking for a solution for that problem not been lucky at all and is been about 1 year since. Crazy algorithm. Thankfully I came across your video today talking about this. Subscribed. 🤜🤛✌️

[@zcream5978]

Damn best tutorial ever, actually explained what each programme does ❤

[@blixky1]

any idea why when i click "install service" it like opens and force closes the menu it opens when you click it i already tried to run as admit pls help (have tried multiple controllers *elite series 2, xbox 1 controller and dual shock 4* also tried deleting and re downloading the zip*)

[@Vegan_Lifting]

same problem 😞

[@megpantano-oj1xp]

Can you overclock a Victrix BFG pro controller if so what are the specs after over clock?

[@toapsingh]

Hi I'm clicking on install service but something shows for an instance and then it just vanishes what should I do?

[@rad_alien]

same

[@Vegan_Lifting]

same 😞

[@Mrhandyhitman]

So after you overclock do you still have to keep your controller connected to the pc or can you disconnect it and it stay with the setting???

[@BenFoilHat]

Not positive but I think the “on device” check box will keep it on the device.

[@ZxRiGxZ]

Do you keep D4Windows running so it spoofs from PS5 to Xbox360 when you go to play games POST overclocking? Or can all apps/files be closed? Thank you.

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

You can close DS4 and all other programs.

[@YTsoloo]

Man I have tried everything, I came across your video and did everything step by step. I have a Scuf reflex and no matter what I do it just won't overclock.

[@hayvanejones8791]

@k_aon1 and eswap x or s now ? You tried them ? For Xbox btw. I think we can oc them as well. But did consistence was a thing on this gambit controller good or like the series x one ?

[@FlawsReal]

For me overclocking don't work either. it keeps giving error. Someone said I need to go to safe mode to do it but I'm not going through all that just for a controller input lag decrease

[@kerrykverga5612]

bro do you know why when i use another cable type c with my ps5 controller says that requiered something and the box is red?

[@steve_louise]

I'm assuming selecting default and "install service" restores the controller back to it's original latency?

[@crashqq]

Hi, does it works if I use my controller only via 2,4ghz dongle?

[@CiiTy_1]

My issue is that when I open up hidusb and hit install for the 1000 polling rate no message pops up for me to click “open.” When I check filter on device, same thing, no message for me to click “open.” Anybody know what I can do? Also, how can I completely wipe hidusb from my computer and maybe try redownloading it?

[@rad_alien]

same here, did you ever find a fix?

[@Vegan_Lifting]

did you fix it??!

[@daxterv1461]

11:38 Is filter on device really important ? Windows says it is dangerous and after I turned the filter on the controller broke. I installed service one more time but this time without the filter and it works

[@daxterv1461]

problem solved in 20:18

[@RANDOMTHIRTEEN]

I know other top youtubers say the xbox remotes get no added benefit but it depends on the quality of the brand obviously. For instance I tested on a MSI MC30 v2 remote and wireless it makes no difference overclocking it keeps on 16ms average but if you use it in wired mode it goes from 4.4ms average to just 1.9ms average. So this is still a win in my books. Tried on a PDP controller which stock is 15ms average and it stayed the same and tried on a generic Ripper controller and only improved that from 5ms to 3ms which is still a win again. I know the Playstation remotes drop to as little as 1ms with this mod for some of them so it's sad that the best I've gotten a Xbox remote to is just under 2ms faster but slower then the PS controller

[@anarchyfn6165]

I have a scuf refelx and when i try to overclock it set to 1000 the bit is at 4 and i cant get it to 1

[@Ted__Moon]

Does this have to be used on pc or can u use it on your console?

[@mrhaths]

whats the best input controllers in your opinion?

[@Omega_1306]

hey since no one is answering questions i have a query i followed this guide overclocked my controller but it seems that my analogue stick became more inaccurate with my inputs on "Gamepad Tester" is this normal?

[@Dripp2hard10]

tired to do this on a fusion pro v2 xbox but it urned off when disconnected and only worked when reverted ,any help on how to succesfull oc it ?

[@B_BolenGaming]

I have a fusion 3, I’m trying to see if I can do it on that

Keep up the good work. Stellar job. I found your channel with your first controller over locking video. Now this follow up is the beefier girth-ier (?) version

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

Thank you Ronny! I’m glad you enjoy the videos. Yes an updated , more in depth tutorial

[@oscarwilliams1147]

@@GamerHeavenOfficial Did you connect PS5 controller USB- Type C ? or Type C to TYPE C ? do you know if this affects results... TYPE C is technically 20 x Faster than USB at transferring data.

[@lern2swim]

Does the overclock software have to run in the background whenever you use the controller after this, or is it a "set it up and then proceed as normal" situation after that?

[@tubbytubzrubbadubz943]

im wondering the same thing, guess you would have to close the lord of mice software, then test the controller to see idk.

[@xxghost_powersxx5680]

So does overclocking your controller work using it on PS five Console?

Can you update the firmware on PS4 controller without console?

Does DS4 need to be open in the background when I'm playing games using a ps4 controller?

[@matthewlevack1704]

Thanks for the video! Im struggling to get my PS5 dualsense edge controller to average anything faster than 3ms. I've reinstalled all apps but no matter the rate I change to in Lord of Mice its not able to get lower that 3ms. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

[@xugo91]

Does it reduce the lifespan of the controller? And also, what USB 3.0 cable do you suggest for controller? Thanks !

[@FlawsReal]

I use Dualshock 4 with DS4Windows wireless mostly and both DS4 and XInput says my delay is around 0.7-1.1 for the most part but for some reason my new controller in particular still seems as if it has a ton of input lag when I play games like Warzone. Could this just be a factory flaw or just simply that the controller is new and I'm used to using a thumbstick that has wear and tear on it

[@KyleHJ]

Finally got around to overclocking my ds4 and dualsense, man its crazy how fast it is now. Took some getting used to the first few games with how responsive it is lol. Thanks Kev, btw DS4 is more comfortable than DS 🤷‍♂at least for my 18x9cm hands lol

[@Omega_1306]

[@KyleHJ]

@@Omega_1306 It sounds like the overclock was too aggressive, the controller will act weird if its too high of an overclock. What controller is is? If its an xbox controller don’t go past 500Hz, some xbox controllers wont overclock at all like my Razer Wolverine Ultimate. If its a Playstation controller try plugging in your cable to a different usb port and restart the overclocking process and see if it responds normally. Hope this helps!

[@yue7507]

Hello, do you have a video for overclocking switch pro controllers?

[@afbeast]

Just a question, do you always have to run DS4 Windows to use this controller in Overclocking mode?

[@Crayonbreaker]

I have the same question, did you ever find out?

[@lolbeau]

It is necessary if you are using Bluetooth.. if the connection is wired then you should just be able to use the overclocking software. I have a ps5 SCUF and I use ds4 and the overclocking software simultaneously

How do u make it cycle through the colors like that?? Im on pc and can only choose a single color i cant make it cycle through like yours was??

[@Foever378]

Thank you for taking the time. I learned something here, but my question now is why choose 1000 over 8000 and are there any performance benifits in MW from choosing one over the other or disavantages?

[@Boogy252]

I play with a cheaper xbox controller that I found in gamestop and walmart tried overclocking and it doubled the polling rate from 250 to 500 so I now get 2ms of ionput delay. Just putting this out there for anyone who doesn't want to break the bank on a controller with back paddles the controller that i have is a pdp rematch and I got it for $40 before tax

[@FantaaClaus]

Been loving the consistent uploads! For future controller videos, would you be opposed to including a short section of time to the results of overclocking each controller you review? Just a thought :)

[@Philanrapist]

Excellent video. I do have a question though. I was able to successfully overclock my DualSense when connected via USB C cable. However it doesn’t show up in hidusbf while connected via bluetooth. Only my Bluetooth adapter, mouse and keyboard shows up under “all”. Is there some trick to making the DualSense show up as a discrete device that can be overclocked via Bluetooth?

[@KuwPhotographer]

hi .. have tried overclocking nacon revolution 5 pro ??

[@themountain687]

Why is it with my Xbox Elite Controller, when i first OC it and unplug and plug back in my controller i'll have like a Min 7 ms - Max 12 ms PR 120. Then I run it a 2nd, 3rd, 4th time it goes back to a Min 7 ms - Max 2000 ms PR 90?

When I hit install service it doesn't give me the option to open the window just pops up for a sec then disappears.

[@Mono-2240]

Dumb question, but can you overclock a scuf instinct pro from 125hz to 250hz and still be overclocked if you connect it back to the Xbox console or does overclocking only work when you are connected to a PC? Thanks

[@stefanovek2913]

The jitter on Xbox controller when overclocked grow up a lot, but what jitter to? If I oc my elite2 I go from 0,07 jitter to 1,4 and input delay from 6,9-1200ms range(avg7,8) to 3,5-1799ms range ( 7,9 avg) so it become worst when i try the overclock, is it possible?

[@supernice_auto]

overclocking stock xbox controller is a waste of time

Doesnt seem to work with dualsense edge on PC for some reason.

So I overclocked my ps5 to dual sense to 8000 hz and have a 1 binterval, out of interest sake I tried it again on 1000hz and now it says 4binterval. I was wanting to stick to 1000hz but it seems like 8000 is the way to go. Thoughts?

I would do which ever is getting you the lowest and most consistent results in xinput test. For me I usually don’t notice any difference between 8k and 1

[@0FFICERPROBLEM]

DS4Windows has support for the Switch Pro (now?) Just connected it wired, not tested wireless though. Would love to see that separate video all about the Switch Pro on PC you said you would do here. If it's on your channel I can't find it! You can also overclock BT polling rate directly in DS4 Windows, under edit profile>Other. I did it with my DS4 and it seemed to work when testing. Not sure how it compares to the overclocking software you use though. I do prefer my DS4 is wired though for competitive games, more consistency. Mine using DS4Windows seems to run about 250 Hz wired, I suppose I could use that software to overclock it wired. I turn off BT on my PC and make sure DS4Windows shows the USB icon for the connection. I also use HidHide to avoid any shenanigans with programs or games seeing multiple controllers. Thanks for the excellent videos.

Quick question, when you cycle between two of the same controller (scuff reflex) on PC. After doing the first controller once I plug in the second it automatically comes up at 1 and 8000 without doing anything. Should I uncheck the box and select default and re run the three cycles of installs?
