2.277sensitivity 3200 DPI
7286.4 what sens?
John

1600 DPI 47 sensitivity
Therefore 400 DPI what sensitivity
You can compare it to other players, you can share it, or you can do nothing at all with it. It’s up to you; eDPI is just a means of comparing true sensitivities in a certain game, it’s not something that you have to know or anything.
if i were to say had an 800 dpi and 0.65 in game. 520 edpi. If i changed my dpi to 1600 and my ingame sens to 0.325. Would my aim and feeling of sensitivity be the same or would it differ and be completely different from my original sens even tho the edpi is the same.
If you have the answer please respond to this comment
Different DPI levels can feel different so you might definitely have a different feeling when switching like that. That said: it should be rather easy to overcome, and a lot of people won’t even notice the difference.

Hey i have a question. Well my fotrnite sens is different then from every one just because my sens it shows for example 65,5 and when i look to my friends and youtubers and everyone i see they have dots(.) Instead of commas(,) like me please help
english uk and english us use dots and commas differently, its the same thing.

Well guys, this was for me the best guide to warzone settings ever!!! eDPI now 5000 and still lowering it, i have a different game now, life is much more easy 🙂
Also i did the graphic settings, its perfect nothing more to say.
Good job and i will follow the site if new games are up!!!
Thanks!!!
Hey, thanks for the kind words! That’s always appreciated. Love to hear that you’re bossing it ingame too!

Hi, just a question cause of warzone, at the moment i use sens of 25 and dpi of 1500, which means my edpi should be 37.500 if i understand you right. so i am much higher then the average.
If i would lower the settings to average, i have the feeling the players is moving and turning much too slow ingame, or said in other way, i need to do a much bigger difference on the mousepad to turn the player around.
I dont get it how pro´s can use those edpi setting and be fast in game – for me this is nearly unplayable with that low edpi.
Any help in this point?
It’s really a question of getting used to it. If you feel comfortable at you current sensitivity and you feel like you’re hitting all of your shots then there’s no real need to switch, but the reason all pros play at a ‘lower’ (at least when compared to what many players who are more casual use) sensitivities is because it allows them to have much more control over their micro movements. That said: aside from getting a mousepad that’s big enough to accommodate a lower sens (you’ll find that all pads that pros use are much larger than what you find on an average office desk, for example) it’s just a matter of getting used to it. After a while it starts to feel more natural.
Some people are fans of gradually lowering your sensitivity, which is something that you can try if you want, but I am personally more partial to the ‘cold turkey’ method where you just lower it in one go. That way you don’t have to get used to a myriad of different sensitivities.
Hope this helps a bit!

thank you, i was just wondering if the formula was correct but you also did the math so i dont have to do it anymore. I was talking about fortnite but what if i lower my y-sens to 3.2 and my x-sens stays at 3.5 with a dpi of 2300, whats my edpi then?
It’s kind of hard to calculate ‘true eDPI’ when you have different x and y sensitivities. If you go to 3.2 and 2300 you’d be at 5290.

so i play on a mouse with a costumizable software so i have a dpi of 2300 and my in game sens is 3.5 but i want to change mice and want the ninja air58 wich doesnt have a software so i want my dpi to 800 but i want the same eDPI so then i will have to first do 2300*3.5 =8050 and then i will have to do 8050/800 = ? If im wrong pls let me know
Your current eDPI is 8050. To get to the same eDPI you’d have to use an ingame sens of ~10.06. I don’t know what game you’re talking about (some don’t allow you to fine tune your sens behind the comma) but if you want it exact your sens would have to be 10.0625. With that said: something like 10.1 would definitely work as well: you get used to these super small changes fairly quickly.

i have a Zeus e2 from ibuygaming and the highest normal dpi is 3200 is that high or normal for pc players?
You don’t really need anything higher than 3200 DPI, however that mouse seems to have a max polling rate of 125Hz so that’s rather subpar for a modern gaming mouse.

Does this mean i have 75600 eDPI? I have 30 sense in R6 which translates to 36 (1.2*R6 sense for CSGO sense), and if I multiply my CSGO at 36 with my dpi at 2100 I get 75600?
Your calculation to convert from Siege to CS:GO seems to be a bit off. Your sensitivity in CS:GO would be 7.18. Your eDPI in CS:GO would as such be 16380.

Thank you for sharing such an amazing guide. As a gamer, I would recommend 1k to 1600 for MMO games, and for a shooter game, 400 would be enough. What are your thoughts about it?
Thank you for the kind words!
With modern sensors it actually doesn’t matter as much: we find that most pro gamers are using either 400 or 800 DPI, with 1600 being another very popular option. Most don’t go any higher than that though (and there’s no need to since you can scale your sensitivity in the game if you want a higher overall sens) so we’d say your recommendations are pretty solid.
Can u help me ? I was using 3.0 in game sens, and now that i’ve changed to 800 dpi, my sens is very low, i have to put 7.0 now.. whats wrong ? i see the pro players here using 0.75 with 800 dpi … HOW ?? it’s impossible to play like that… can u help me ?
I don’t know what game you’re talking about but pro players in general have a really low sensitivity compared to ‘casual gamers’. The average VALORANT pro, for example, has to move their mouse 47 centimeters to do a 360 degree turn in the game. It’s something you do get used to after a while.

Does your monitor resolution affect the DPI a player would use?
For instance, if I play a game at 1440p I might need a higher DPI since to move 100 pixels at 1080p would result in 1 inch of movement on my screen, while, 100px at 1440p might only be only 1/2 an inch on a higher resolution screen. Am I thinking about this correctly?
I ask because most pros are playing at 1080p and I play at 1440p, so if I use the average pro eDPI, I have to move my mouse a literal mile to turn around in-game which doesn’t seem realistic.
For reference, in Valorant, I play at eDPI 516 compared to average 277(I think it’s closer to 330) which is 1.86x(1.56x) higher and 1440/1080 is 1.33x higher which is enough to correlate the difference to me.
Side comment: the infographic posted yesterday on the /r/valorant claims that the average eDPI is 277 but I think the average is skewed low because of how the calculation and statistics are done.
It depends. For some 2D games it could make a difference but rotation in 3D games is usually based on angles, not pixels, so the game doesn’t really care about your resolution. That’s why CS:GO pros don’t have to change their sensitivity when they change resolution, for example. If you want to be absolutely sure you can always measure your cm/360 though. As far as the infographic goes: that was definitely the average sensitivity of players at that time. Our list and guides have been updated since last week, but even if we look at the median eDPI we can see that it’s on the ‘lower’ side at 251.

Can you answer me if the chipset driver version of a motherboard can influence the accuracy of a mouse? I tested a few different versions and I feel a little difference in my gameplay .. That much AMD Intel, I tested with several mice
hey ich benutrze die sony inzone mouse-a welche einstellungen sind dort gut ?
was sind dort die einstellungen oder wie stelle ich sie am besten ein für das game lol?wäre cool wenn man mir hier weiterhelfen könnte lg
wieso ändert sich hier das was ich schreibe…..ich brauche lediglich hilfe bei der einstellung der maus dpi hz und ingame sensibilität und was ich genau beachten muss wäree mir sehr sehr wichtig!
2.277sensitivity 3200 DPI
7286.4 what sens?
1600 DPI 47 sensitivity
Therefore 400 DPI what sensitivity
400 is a fourth of 1600 (1600/4 = 400)
So you need to increase your sens by x4 if you want to get the same eDPI at 400, since a lower DPI = slower.
Therefore: 47*4 = 188
400*188 = 75200 eDPI
1600*47 = 75200 eDPI
I think it should be 0.47*4 rather than 47*4, since I think the comment meant 47% rather than 47 times.
i already found my edpi now what do i do with it? im confused
You can compare it to other players, you can share it, or you can do nothing at all with it. It’s up to you; eDPI is just a means of comparing true sensitivities in a certain game, it’s not something that you have to know or anything.
having 1600 dpi and 0.589 in game, how much eDPI?
1600 * 0.589 = 942.4
having 800 DPI and 0.35 in game how much eDPI
800 times 0.35 = 280
having 800 DPI and 0.238 in game, how much eDPI?
800*0.238 = 190.4
Is 480 eDpi as fast as 480 dpi
If your in-game sens is 1, yes.
if i were to say had an 800 dpi and 0.65 in game. 520 edpi. If i changed my dpi to 1600 and my ingame sens to 0.325. Would my aim and feeling of sensitivity be the same or would it differ and be completely different from my original sens even tho the edpi is the same.

I haven’t heard of that happening yet so I’m not sure if that should be possible, though you never know of course. Sorry that I can’t be of more help!
