yeah you can change the Hz of the mouse to make it more responsive, I've done it, there's a little app out to do it(can't recall the name), beware, it may fuck with your other USB devices(Controllers) making them not work. Search the forums, you'll find it.

I have no idea how to do it, but i do know you can increase the refresh rate on USB, some makers of PC Steering wheels sell USB addin cards that are detected as normal usb cards by windows but poll the wheel much more often for increased accuracy.

I heard the jump to 250hz is big but everything after that is hard to notice.
