@saidur_ali:
Both G25 and DFGT run at 500Hz.
I need to correct a terrible mistake I made in my benchmark. I wrote that CSR Elite outputs data at 100Hz, when it actually started running at 500Hz with the firmware I used for the last test results, which were used in this write-up. You can see that CSR Elite's curve is surprisingly smooth for 100Hz.
I messed this up, because I had a ton of data in the same wheel comparison and somehow always managed to look at CSR Elite's data from testing with older beta firmware versions, when analyzing update rates. Sorry, I already corrected my text.
That said, this is only a beta version, so please don't take it for granted just yet. But they are working on it
@Mr. Latte:
I actually agree with your thinking a lot. It probably could happen that a wheel gets good test results (v717), but does not feel good or work well in real world, so subjective testing is the only way to really test the wheel and comment how it feels in different games. Testing also doesn't tell anything about how the wheel really feels, nothing about quality etc. I am actually quite terrified of writing the final review, simply because it is very hard to compare how different wheels feel and describe that.
There is no way benchmarks can replace that, but I always wanted to get some objective/scientific data about how these wheels perform and I think it is valuable to have these numbers out there. These do show some hard data that would otherwise maybe stay unknown and also there will be less rumors/myths about performance of different wheels this way.
I guess it is good to know if a wheel works as it is supposed to (in regards to linearity for example). Also I think that if we start benchmarking wheels, manufacturers will start paying more and more attention, so with time everyone will not only try to make a good, quality wheel that feels good, but maybe also make its FFB more linear (so that it will respond more correctly to game's commands) and stronger as they would, if they knew no one would test that.
