Mouse being jumpy shouldn’t be related to refresh rate. The mouse driver and windowing system should keep track of the mouse position regardless of the video frame rate. Yes, the mouse may jump more per frame with a lower frame rate, but that should only be happening when you move the mouse a long distance quickly. Typically, when you do that, you’re not looking at the mouse itself but at the target. Then, once you’re near it, you slow down the movement and use fine motor skills to move it onto the target. That’s typically much slower and frame rate won’t matter much because the motion is so much smaller.
