Free PC Diagnostic Tools
Not just pass/fail testers — these tools measure jitter, stability,
and consistency, explain what the numbers actually mean, and are
upfront about what a browser can and can't measure. Test your
keyboard, mouse, and monitor instantly, no downloads required.
How Accurate Are These Tests?
Every browser-based test has real limits — event coalescing, OS
scheduling, and background CPU load can all affect a reading. We'd
rather explain that than hide it behind a single impressive-looking
number.
⌨️ Keyboard
Physical key → OS → browser event → measured press duration.
Reliable for comparing keys against each other; not a
substitute for a hardware scan-rate spec.
🖱 Mouse
Mouse → OS → browser pointer events (using getCoalescedEvents
where supported) → statistical analysis. Reliable up to
roughly 1500–2000Hz in most Chromium browsers; higher rates
can be under-reported.
🖥️ Monitor
Display → requestAnimationFrame → frame-timing analysis.
Accurate to roughly ±1–2Hz under normal conditions, with a
stability grade to flag when a reading isn't holding steady.
Common Problems These Tools Help You Diagnose
⌨️
Keys not registering or repeating
Stuck keys, double inputs, or dead zones on your keyboard? Test
every key individually before assuming it's a hardware failure.
🖱
Cursor feels laggy or inconsistent
Verify your mouse is actually hitting its rated polling rate —
many "gaming" mice ship running below spec out of the box.
🖥️
Monitor not showing full refresh rate
A 144Hz monitor plugged in wrong (cable, port, or Windows
setting) often silently runs at 60Hz. Confirm what you're
actually getting.
🛒
Buying a used or refurbished PC
Before buying secondhand hardware, run a full check on the
keyboard, mouse, and display — takes under a minute per device.
Why Test Online Instead of Calling a Technician?
Most keyboard, mouse, and monitor issues aren't hardware failures — they're
driver conflicts, wrong Windows settings, or a cable running below spec.
Testing in-browser first means you skip the diagnostic fee and know
exactly what's wrong before spending money on a repair or replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my data uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. Every test runs locally in your browser. Key presses, mouse
movement, and refresh-rate measurements never leave your device
or get sent to any server.
Why does my 1000Hz mouse show a lower polling rate in the test?
This is a browser limitation, not a problem with your mouse.
Browsers typically throttle input event updates to conserve
battery and CPU, so a 1000Hz mouse may display 60–120Hz in-browser
even though the hardware is reporting correctly at full rate.
Why is my keyboard stuck at 125Hz even on a gaming keyboard?
Standard office and budget keyboards are hardware-locked to
125Hz regardless of software settings. Only keyboards explicitly
marketed with 1000Hz+ polling (common in gaming keyboards) can
exceed this — check your keyboard's spec sheet to confirm.
Are these tests actually accurate, or just an estimate?
Browser-based tests measure input as it reaches your operating
system — through the same path any game or app would receive it.
This makes them highly reliable for comparison purposes, though a
browser can't bypass OS-level polling limits. For example, most
browsers cap visual updates around 60–120Hz, so a 1000Hz mouse
may show a lower number even when the hardware itself is working
correctly.
Do I need to install anything to use these tools?
No. All three tools run entirely in your browser using native
web APIs — nothing is installed, and no drivers are required.
Do these tools work on laptops and trackpads?
Yes — the keyboard and mouse testers work with built-in laptop
keyboards and trackpads as well as external peripherals, on any
modern browser.
Which browser gives the most accurate results?
Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge) generally expose the most
precise timing APIs for polling-rate and refresh-rate
measurement. Firefox and Safari work fine too, but numbers can
vary slightly between browsers due to differences in event
throttling.
Can these tools detect a faulty or dying peripheral?
Yes, indirectly. Inconsistent jitter on the mouse test, keys that
fail to register on the keyboard tester, or a refresh rate that
won't hold steady on the monitor test are all signs worth
investigating further — often before assuming you need a
replacement.
