Thanks for testing.

I did another test with Cecconoid (ADF + Kick 13 ROM), and the game/animations stop if I move the mouse. There is definitely an issue. Maybe just on the A600GS?

Cecconoid runs fine here on my A600GS, doesn´t matter if I move the mouse or not :)

I’ve just turned my A600gs and noticed how bad and laggy the mouse is.

It’s been off for a few month and I thought it’s time to try it out again.

There also seems to be a dot in the center on amibench  which moves the when the mouse moves.

Its set to 1920x1080 at 60fps - it’s terrible experiance the moment, no vsync and like 10fps updates to screen.

I’m sure it wasn’t like this before.

Mmh, the slow downs only happen on my A600GS in Full-HD (1920x1080x50 or 1920x1080x60). Moving the mouse in 1280x720 caused no slowdowns/freezes.

Do you believe me that I have slowdowns in Full-HD, or do you need a video as proof?

Just to make sure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSviXl3pCAE
This happens with the USB mouse is connected directly or via a KVM switch.

Same here, in 720 I can move the mouse without it freezing/stuttering games

I’ve tried a few things today.
Turning down the resolution to 640 x 480 in AmiBench does speed the FPS up but it’s not perfect.
Also going down to that resolution breaks AmiBenchs splash screen.

I did some more testing with 8 bit colour but AmiBench breaks
It’s display glitches with windows drawn on the grey screen / and icons vanish in this mode.

The white dot in the middle of the screen never goes away.

I assume the emulator running is having some video problems.

@boingball
The white dot is a consequence of a workaround in a recent update, hopefully it's fairly temporary.

I'm not seeing the slow mouse pointer movement in HD myself, though I seem to have my own special issues with certain whdload archives.

The mouse problem in video :
https://youtube.com/shorts/yu1MpzrVUEE?feature=share

I have not used my A600Gs for abought 4 months - so before this it was working fine.

Turned it on, updated it and then the mouse has the issues :(

i was thinking it was something wrong I had done - but finding this post has put my mind at rest at least :)

OK, I guess I do have the same issue that you're seeing in relation to the screen tearing and ghosting.  :o

I've owned my A600GS for less time than you've had yours switched off! So I don't have the same historical reference to compare.

I received my unit in April, so that's probably why it's been bad all the time.

@thread

Are any of the users experiencing mouse slow downs using particularly  high performance mice?

This one: https://rog.asus.com/mice-mouse-pads/mice/ergonomic-right-handed/rog-gladius-iii-wireless-model/

Also tried a cabled mouse, I think it was Razer gaming mouse of some kind, I dont have any typically low performance mice to test.

Yes, indeed. I am getting slowdowns using a Logitech G502 Hero Gaming mouse.

Everything Most is fine with an old Cherry MC 2000 mouse (no gaming, just 2 buttons and a wheel).

Still, even if I use the normal mouse in AmiBench, the mouse pointer stops after moving the mouse quickly. If I move the mouse slowly, the mouse pointer smoothly goes from left to right edge (or the other way round). If I move the mouse quickly, the mouse pointer moves a bit (~1/3rd of the screen) and then simply stops although I move the mouse further in the same direction. Something is still off.

What happens to the little white dot when you move the mouse quickly enough to trigger the issue? Does it hit the edge of the screen?

Sorry, I really cannot say. The dot is so tiny and jumps so quickly that I cannot see it after starting to move the mouse.

It just kind of stays in the middle of the screen and blinks for me.
