[SOLVED] Weird cursor movements after using the new gaming mouse

Hey there.
Recently I've bought a budget gaming mouse (redragon m711).
I plugged it in, and started using it. But it felt really bad, I mean, the mouse jumps when moved a little fast, or it sometimes some of inputs are missed (it felt really choppy).
I tried disabling acceleration and adjusting the sensitivity and mouse dpi (by xinput and special buttons on the mouse itself), but it really doesn't make any difference in the actual problem, but after all it is better with higher sensitivity, because I had to move the mouse a little to aim and click on things.
Basically, if I move it quickly, it starts missing input and acting weird (Idk how to explain it, but it glitches). I tried with windows, and it was okay.
Btw there was no input problems with my old mouse(kingstar km360g)

Weird enough, its working fine right now (after booting to archlinux again), I'll update if anything wrong happens.

I have this exact mouse (it was my old one and is still sitting in a drawer, though the USB connection is a little iffy), so if you want anything tested on a different system let me know.

Solved: Boot into windows and try changing report rate + DPI using redragon software until there is no glitches.
