mouse sens and dpi struggle

[Laursen]

Hello, i've been trying to find a good mouse sens for me, but I havent had any luck. Does anyone have the same problem or has solved theirs? If so what mouse sens and dpi have you had good luck and experience with?

[Uff-dear?]

Russian community already found answers 400dpi 4.0 sens

[save Palestine]

a sens where you can do 360 but not that easily, or a comfortable swipe that you regularly do that turns your character perfect or close to 180

[Covert]

Mine is 800 dpi, 500hz polling rate with 1.9 ingame sens and 1.0 ads sens with no mouse acceleration

Do this and you'll never look back. This is also the most common sens in Apex by a long-shot. 800 DPI and in-game sensitivity to 1.5. Also don't forget to change your per optic 1x sensitivity to 1.3, don't ask why, it's a very different discussion but you can look it up here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2hhUQm2RjA&t=

High DPI and lower in-game sensitivity feels smoother in my opinion on a variety of PC builds and monitors that I have tried.

For me my:
DPI: 1500
In-game sens (Apex): 1.7

--------
Note, my resolution is 3840x1600

Also keep in mind, that 800DPI is only a thing because it tends to be the DPI any mouse can run (some even default to that do not have DPI settings). Not every mouse can go above 1000 so it is easy that way. If I recall it correctly it was also the standard they used for the old mechanical mice which had a ball on the inside. However times have changed and if you can handle higher DPI and just compensate it with in-game sensitivity you will be fine.

ive been struggling with dpi and mouse sens for awhile and it really stunts my ability in game :(

The best DPI in terms of low latency is 1600.

More DPI doesn't make sense and lower is worse.

We can adjust the sense by lowering the Windows setting and ingame too.

My setting is:

Windows 4 of 10

Ingame: 0.907143

4 of 10? mine is 1-20 so if yours is 4 to 10 what is yours equivalant for mine being 1 to 20 cursor speeds, what do you reccomend for me?

[RustyFleshLight]

Windows always 4/10 or 10/20.

In game either,
400 DPI - 2.9/1.0 1000 Pol Rate.
Or,
800 DPI - 1.8/1.0 500 Pol Rate.

Test and lower the main sens a tad if needed.

That's the two most common builds on mouse sens.

I like higher sens because of my small desk so should i try 800 dpi? idk what would be best for my aim at this point i might have to sit in firing range for an hour and go through everything

We only have 10 options in Windows so how can you have 20?
