Check the controller’s polling rate in a controller testing tool
Compare the polling rate to the default rate for your controller
Look for overclocking software or custom USB settings on your PC
Test for unusually low input latency
Verify whether the controller is connected through a USB port configured for high-speed polling
Check device manager or controller properties for custom driver changes
Compare performance against another identical controller on the same system
Review BIOS, chipset, or USB controller settings for non-default configurations
Test for stable operation at the reported polling rate
Look for signs of forced USB polling changes in system utilities or scripts
