Mouse Filter

What the heck does the mouse filter do? It says it smooths out mouse movement, but I've used it and seen very little difference. Do any of you actually use this? Does it help?

Go into Counter Strike: Source, Options, Mouse, and there's a check box for Mouse Filter.

Mouse filter smoothes out mouse movement. This may sound like a good idea, but it is best left unchecked. Enabling it will only distort your aim, moving your crosshair slightly off cue from where you want it.

Counter-Strike will calculate all your mouse movements over the last two frames to find an average and attempt to give you a more fluid feel. This means using older data to move your mouse instead of the most up to date information. Theoretically, with mouse filter off, you could also receive a slight FPS boost on lower end systems.

I know your not that smart, so where did you copy and paste that from?
