What about Intel and Matrox?
What about desktop compositors for Linux? And the macOS compositor? (Not that macOS is pleasant to use with a mouse...)
- modeless 6y agoIntel does support it. No idea about Matrox, but it seems like they don't make their own GPU chips anymore so probably not. I believe the situation is worse on most Linux compositors. MacOS I'm not sure of. I tested just now and it looks like at least one frame of latency on most things, and they don't implement the window dragging hack DWM does either.
- DaiPlusPlus 6y agoI note that touchpads (especially on Macs) seem to have considerably higher perceptual lag compared to mice, I think because of the smoothing necessary to make touchpads less fiddly - and as most macOS users are using a touchpad I imagine that contributes to less complaints about lag specifically because it would be difficult to pin-down.
- modeless 6y agoHonestly macOS has always felt laggy to me in comparison to Windows. Even with a mouse. I think there are latency issues there, but also many design issues like the interminable animation for maximizing windows. Compare to the speed of Aero Snap gestures.
- coldtea 6y ago>Not that macOS is pleasant to use with a mouse... Huh? That should be the first time I hear it itsn't...
