Higher Polling in-Game Framerate drop

This was never an issue before, so I'm unsure if it's something to do with the update. My Viper Ultimate now causes frame drops in games and spikes in CPU usage whenever it moves. Within Synapse it's set to 1000 Hz polling rate. When I drop it down, the framerate improves in the game Overwatch 2 for example. But when I go back to 1000 I lose half my frames. I understand that higher polling uses resources, but it was never a problem before.

    Ok, it seems to be a widespread issue with Windows 11 and not Synapse. It looks like the Windows 11 causes spikes when polling rates are 1000 Hz or higher.
