Actually wanting to drive Hengping for a long time, I haven't found a chance. Now I can finally have the time to chat with you about the peripheral driver. Why do you want to drive Hengping? The reason is that when I use peripherals, There will always be some situations, and driving one of the experience functions as a peripheral product actually affects all the functions of our mouse and has a great impact. When this mouse performance exceeds our performance, The mouse's software driver has an important role in digging deeper into the use of several mouse functions. It can be said that the emergence of the mouse driver allows the mouse to separate from the setting of an external device. Whether in the office or in the game, the driver can really make the mouse Become a powerful tool. This time, we will take a look. The driving of the three major peripheral manufacturers is hard to use, where is it easy to use, where is it not convenient to wait for improvement, and where is the future of peripheral drives? (This test All under the Win10 version) Three major manufacturers and three test products The test products from three major peripheral manufacturers: Razer, Logitech, Sai Rui. Products are top three manufacturers of the mouse, are: Razer Mamba Super Edition, Logitech G903, Sairui Rival700. Certainly some people say that the mouse driver has a good test, not just a few features. The person who said this is definitely not the person who invokes the mouse driver, but we do rarely call after setting the mouse driver parameters in the previous few times. The mouse is driven, but in many cases the driver software does affect the entire product experience. For example, the software may crash from time to time, such as abnormal feedback from the driver, or problems during installation, which in fact affect the use of the entire mouse. Experience. Razer, Logitech, and Sairui are three major peripheral manufacturers. Their products are very popular among consumers, but the driver software that comes with the mouse has always been regarded as an attachment. In fact, this high-end mouse has a full-scale performance surplus. In the era, the existence of the drive is to dig out more functions and performances of the mouse and use the mouse to drive. Whether it is in the office or in the game, it can give a very big boost. It can be said that the emergence of the mouse driver makes the mouse separate from the simple one. External device settings really make the mouse a powerful tool. Overall list of drivers The functions of the three drivers are very rich. Whether it is a variety of custom keys, or recording of macro functions can be easily completed. What are the major differences between these three drivers? Razer The Razer driver is not in the darkness of the past. It is now replaced by Synapse Thundercloud, with 2.0 and 3.0 points. Since it is 'cloud', then with the cloud storage function, Thundercloud needs a registered account to log in via an account, and the same account's settings will be retained in the server through cloud storage. Whether it is for a computer or reinstalling a system, it can be realized. Seamless fit, no need to reset, or more convenient. The overall design follows the square edges of win10, and the menu module is similar to the win10 UI design for the square magnet style icons. This UI design also makes the software feel and the entire system is quite suitable. Setting the layout is very clean and tidy, unless the settings options, the cleanliness of the layout is worthy of appreciation, there will be a direct three-dimensional icon of the mouse, you can debug the button directly on the page to set custom. In addition to the setting of various parameters such as DPI, Thundercloud's unique CHROMA lighting effect control can not only interact with the lighting effects of cooperators, but also set different lighting effects and colors, as well as download official customizations. A variety of game lights. Logitech Logitech's driver interface is still a sleek look similar to win7. The sense of the times is slightly lagging, but the function of the entire software is very complete , UI interface is also full of win7 icon style, Logitech drivers do not need to log in to use, all based on access device identification and display different device settings. Take the Logitech G903 as an example. In the initial screen, the first choice is to set the onboard configuration file or set the PC storage configuration file. Logitech places all device selections in the lower left area by clicking to change the device to be selected. All on one page In fact, it is better than the Razer Snake's page jump and Sairui's multi-page experience. At least when selecting other devices or other options, the overall frame of the page will not change much. It is convenient to drive settings. and use. The mouse has its own lighting effect control, and even OVERWOLF game support software developed with the driver (which needs to be downloaded separately, that is, the wolf icon in the lower right corner). It can also record key KPM data to provide analysis. It gives me a feeling that Logitech prefers to E-sports players. However, Logitech Driver has the advantage of supporting the development of a mobile phone APP. This Arx Control can not only replace part of the functions of the PC-side driver adjustment configuration, but also display data in the game, PC information and multimedia control. The more used is the multimedia control, and the display of game data. After all, the parameter adjustment is still more convenient on the PC side. Sairui Sairui's driver software does not seem to belong to win7 style nor win10 style, Sairui has its own unique design concept, but I What I can't understand is the appearance of a separate secondary window. When I used a computer in general, for example, I liked to open multiple windows. This way, the Sairui driver is on, as long as the setting is more than two windows, it looks very messy, and The interface that was originally well-chosen for the device was occluded and lost its convenience, reducing the experience Personally think that similar to Razer Jump Page or Logitech's direct one window to browse multiple devices is good. Sairui's driver can also log in through an account, but only as an auxiliary device for authentication devices does not have extra cloud capabilities. The overall setup is complete, and it is also very convenient. All of them are graphical settings. The number of parameters is clear at a glance. The setting of the buttons is also clear. Of course, although the drive settings of Sairui are complete, some special functions are missing, such as Ray. Snake's CHROMA or Logitech APP display and key data collection analysis. In fact, there is a special function on this RIVAL series mouse. There are vibration modules on the RIVAL500 and RIVAL700, which can trigger the vibration of the character in the adapted game, but this function only appears on several mice. Not counted in the special features of Sairui, should be counted as a special function of the mouse. Comparison of various advantages and disadvantages Display of window size and information First, let's compare the size of the driver window. Razer's thundercloud driver defaults to the largest, Sairui takes second place, and Logitech drives the window to the minimum. This does not mean that the bigger or smaller the window, the better. We have to compare the window How much information can be displayed, is it convenient to operate. Razer's page is the largest, the display information is perfect, but it is very open. Until I call all the settings out, I just barely use the entire window, but the size of the window can be adjusted. Logitech's window is the smallest and does not support adjusting the size of the window, but the small window information is also displayed very completely. At the same time, the selection of the device can also be selected by the same window. For convenience, the Logitech driver is most convenient to use. Guaranteed the complete display of information, with a clear division of functional areas. The Sairui interface feels a bit too big, the interface can only be selected by the device, such a large page is completely unnecessary, but fortunately the size of the window can be adjusted, secondary window size is moderate, However, I always feel that the appearance of secondary windows is not convenient for switching between multiple device settings and is lost in convenience.. In summary, it is Razer, unnecessary, slightly lacking in the convenience of operation, but fortunately can adjust the size of the window, select the device interface is also clear, and meet the current win10 Founder window UI, and the entire system is very collocation. The Logitech driver is even more age-sensitive. It may be necessary to further upgrade the UI. The window is slightly smaller and does not support adjustment, but it does not affect the display of information. However, it is not convenient to click one by one on the device selection. If it can show all The one-time click on the device will have a better experience. The setting of Sairui's secondary window is really unintelligible. When the individual uses the Sairui driver, the secondary window's pop-up broken ring drives the integrity. There is a kind of whole driver. Fragmented messy feeling. Driven feedback speed The mouse's drive settings, the top mouse really is the top mouse, set things can be determined in seconds without waiting, but when you open the mouse driver can have a difference, Razer and Logitech drivers are seconds open, alone game Core drive is up to 5 seconds, secondary window is up to 3 seconds, to know that my entire computer's system boot is only 9 seconds, open the PS and other software is only about 7 seconds, this point do not know is the optimization problem or what problem. Response speed: Logitech, Razer> Sairui. stability When it comes to stability, you have to criticize Razer, stop working from time to time, and sometimes stop playing at the game and let your set DPI drop to the default DPI. You think the mouse is broken, and the experience in the game is not good. Suddenly, The recently updated version seems to fix this problem , but Ray Snake Cloud is constantly updating what is the ghost of three days, a software does not need to be updated very frequently, and Razer can not be used when updating the driver, this is difficult to accept. Although Sairui does not find any unstable issues in the win10 version, but the version in win7 is a bit large. The individual used to drive Sairui in the win7 environment and often crashes. I believe many users are using win7. In all cases, I have encountered an opportunity to ask about Sairui. According to them, it is possible that some users of win7 will streamline the system. Sairui this way to push the problem to the user is really good? Say the user is still using the win7 system is basically no hardware upgrades, the latest hardware simply can not install win7, like no upgrade win7 users feel so The driver is completely free from the installation, not only occupying the hardware resources that were already facing the current tension, but also having a negative experience. The best stability is Logitech. It is not only small when it is running, it has not been used for so many years and it hasn't crashed or anything special. Stability: Logitech> Razer> Sairui. In the case of the three driver updates: Razer will be forced to update, and the update process will be unusable; Logitech will not push updates, and there will not even be an update until you feel that you need to update or the driver does not support the access device. The update will be prompted, after which the consumer can choose to manually update. Sairui will be prompted to update, and Sairui's update seems to be quite frequent, but will not be mandatory update. Occupied resources comparison We all know that the computer's hardware resources are limited, and we all hope that each software will occupy as little resources as possible. These mouse-like drivers are as small as possible. However, during the use of Logitech and Sairui processes occupy only Occupy one or two processes, and Razer's process is occupied up to 8 and even if the driver that exits Razer won't close the process, these processes cannot be forcibly stopped, and it is impossible to understand what the behavior of the forced process is. . And Razer's driver is unable to turn off the boot, Logitech and Sairui can turn off the boot, Sometimes does not need Razer drive online, Forced occupancy process does not feel good. Therefore, in terms of resource-friendliness, Logitech, Sairui is better than Razer. Special feature In terms of features, Logitech has APP and KPM data record analysis and blessing, which is superior in terms of professionalism. However, Razer is able to even download a variety of preset lights in lighting control. On the other hand, Sairui's driving characteristics are slightly insufficient.
to sum up In fact, the three major manufacturers have their own advantages. In today's full-scale performance of the mouse, through software drivers to tap more features and gameplay, so that the mouse successfully turned from a simple high-performance external device into a high-value utility tool. It is a peripheral driver that should be done in the current era. Providing a good interactive experience: rich functions, convenient settings, quick feedback, useful features, etc. Everything should drive the future of evolution. The three peripheral drivers are: Razer is mainly still stable and resource consumption needs to be optimized, Logitech UI interface needs to be more up to date, Sairui's stability needs to be enhanced and interactive pages need to be simplified to provide more Good interaction experience. Future peripheral drivers will become an important part of the mouse performance evaluation, more and more convenient and intelligent mouse driver will be the future direction of development. If you have to rank, the current driver is to use Logitech (mainly stable, but the UI design is to be improved) on the personal experience. The second is Razer (the lighting effect is rich, and the software is gradually stable after all. Is in the process of continuous repair), Sairui win7 because of the unstable problem According to my win7 seems to have been present Although win10 did not appear, but the secondary window of the set of fragmentation and messy feeling is still with the Razer in the comfortable degree A lot worse. |
