Do I need 8,000 Hz polling rate?

Tom's Hardware's Viper V3 Pro review notes that 8K polling is a real but subtle improvement that only matters on high-refresh monitors (240Hz+) and at the cost of battery life and CPU overhead. Most reviewers agree 1,000 Hz is more than sufficient for the vast majority of players.
