>>62346145
those aren't drivers, they're spyware on top of drivers
>>
>>62346145
Those are meme gayme "utilities" not drivers, you won't even see actual driver usage with normal task manager as it's in the system process.
>>
>>62346145
Disable/delete all of them. You only need the actual driver that gets installed with it, then you only need to use Synapse if you want to configure the mouse buttons / DPI / acceleration, etc. Rest of them time it can be closed.

Do you also install meme gaimur programms with Nvidia/AMD drivers also? Topkek.

Why? Just delete the shit you don't need, don't uninstall the freaking drivers, that has no point.

Those aren't drivers, you fucking retard.
>>
>>62346370
The bloat is on top of the drivers, it's not the drivers themselves you dumbass. You want the actual drivers for the microcontroller inside the mouse to be installed, as it enables features and far better usability of the device (mouse). You do realize you can delete things on the hard drive and in the registry for what you have no use? It won't change the way the drivers work.

This is literary neo-/g/ aka /v/ level tech illiterate thread.

Wrong again, shit for brains.
>>
>>62346456
Synapse services are only for gayme related shit. There are no drivers to be seen there, want to see drivers open up the Device Manager.
Most of it can safely be removed and the Synapse control panel application is the only one needed for configuring the mouse and it can be forced to stay closed unless you just want to configure the mouse again. You could even remove that but kind of useless to do so.
>>
That feel when I lost software for my mouse.

From a local store that rebrands Chinese shit. With a little bit of searching you can find the same shit on aliexpress.
>>
you only want the driver, not the rest of the bloat, as it enables 1000Hz polling rate and disables acceleration
but OP is obviously too retarded to use a computer properly
>>
>>62346462
>>62346491
You're both fucking idiots, stop talking out of your collective asses. Some of those are hardware interfaces for shit like communicating with Razer-specific components. They're dynamically loaded drivers. Usually Razer peripherals have on-board memory anyway so they remember the config but the interface itself is baked in fucking Synapse. The primary driver is just the fucking basic mouse driver with some Razer-specific extras, everything else is done through Synapse.

maybe if you use a shitty microsoft mouse
real mice have drivers that make them amazingly smooth and accurate to use

but it's useless to say that, faggots don't understand that before they have tried themselves

Logitech G402 here. Plugged it in, 1000Hz polling rate right away, switching DPI profiles works perfectly.
Also if you think MS mice are shitty, you don't know much about mice.
I want to think you're trolling, but I'm not sure give the current state of slash gee slash

Useless to say that but Razor spyware is shit.

why do you buy a mouse that requires 500MB of spyware?

>Logitech G402 here. Plugged it in, 1000Hz polling rate right away, switching DPI profiles works perfectly.
that's because your mouse has drivers that got installed via plug-and-play
the generic mouse driver never switches to 1000Hz automatically
I doubt your mouse did too however, even with drivers, you used the Logitech "Gayming Software" to do so

>Also if you think MS mice are shitty, you don't know much about mice.
they are okay for a retro pentium 3 build
nobody seriously thinks a mouse from the late-90's / early-2000's has a sensor that's comparable to todays mice
IIRC the internal polling rate of the sensor alone was under 100Hz

>>62350828
>>could adjust anything without additional software except LED and macro
that's not how drivers work anon
changing DPI on the mouse does not change Windows drivers and registry for different polling rates

You don't need that running

Also why does your theme and font rendering look so shit/broken
>>
>>62350828
>>Cooler Master Sentinel 3
>Razor is shit, just accept it
_literary_ a more meme mouse then Razor, all that bloat and useless shit
at least Razor makes really simple mice also that _jurk werk_ and feel nice with good sensors and you don't have to use the meme gayming software
>>
>>62350903
This is Windows 8.1 with the Penumbra theme from deviantart, and the font rendering is completely fine. I don't need shit like cleartype with a 4K monitor.
>>
>>62350828
>Razor
Maybe, I'm personally a Razer fanboy though.
But probably the "Razor" company you're talking about makes cheap knockoffs.
>>
>>62350903
also:
>You don't need that running
Yes I do. Auto profile switching only works with Roccat Swarm running.
>>
>>62350950
>I don't need shit like cleartype with a 4K monitor.
you're using a 1080p monitor, everybody can see by the size of the picture and the size of the window
if it was done on a 4k monitor, the screenshot would be far higher res for a window that size

step 3: don't install stupid shit this time

>>62351090
The none meme Razer mice also come with none-meme software, unlike OPs pic.

Meanwhile my 2012 Razer Mamba's drivers use 2MB of RAM.
The new Razer mice that use synapse drivers are really bad.

>>62346145
>2008
>mouse has onboard memory, and uses a simple program to create binding schemes for games and stores them in onboard memory so they can be used anywhere with the press of a button

>2017
any binding, or customization of any kind relies entirely on a constantly running social botnet app that takes ridiculous amounts of resources considering what it does. without it constantly running, the device can only be used as plug and play.

I fell like every company that you previously could rely on just to deliver a nice piece of hardware now wants in on the botnet game.

Fucking Razer. They somehow modified the software in the mouse in the time I've had it to install it's botnet garbage.
