A writer for PC Gamer has reported achieving a reaction time of 16 milliseconds on the Human Benchmark website, a feat they claim is ten times faster than typical professional esports players. This result was reportedly achieved while testing the inductive click technology of the Logitech G Pro X3 Superstrike mouse.
The Human Benchmark website's reaction time test typically shows a range of 100-300 milliseconds for most users, with professional gamers often achieving times around 150-160 milliseconds. The writer, Jacob, humorously questioned which esports team might recruit them after this performance, while also acknowledging the possibility of an accidental click at the precise moment the color changed on the test screen, rather than a consistently repeatable result.
Jacob's background includes a long-standing interest in PC hardware, stemming from a negative experience with a pre-built gaming PC in his youth. He has since worked as a hardware writer for PCGamesN and freelanced for various tech publications, including TechRadar and Pocket-lint, before joining PC Gamer full-time. His tenure has involved extensive experience with PC hardware and gaming peripherals.
