Have you not tried using the touchpad for the sake of comparison?

I have had a wireless mouse that had weird jittering when my router was on a certain channel. Worth a try.

I am excited at the prospect of this being a router interference issue because it would be a great easy panacea, but there's one big hole in that logic: If it was constant wireless router interference, why would the jittery mouse (almost always) only be consistently noticeable when running 3D games? (it still has happened outside of gaming, although infrequently)

Will change channel and report back.

Buy a 4 dollar wire mouse and see.

Does nobody else here use a wireless mouse? Am I an idiot?

Wait... don't answer that 2nd question.

i use logitech trackman wireless mice and dont have any issues. But i'm guessing it still more of a laptop throttling issue then a mouse issue.

Wireless mouse is terrible!

I use a wireless mouse all the time. Just a simple thing to rule out while troubleshooting. Increased network traffic can cause wireless interference.

throttling would slow down everything, including the game, not just the mouse
