Acceleration
Guys, please tell me. What would be better, disabling acceleration or leaving it on? (acceleration mouse in win10)

Popular opinion is to disable it to ensure consistency. I've seen arguments that it can allow for lower sense to help with tracking while giving access to larger macro adjustments but in those cases I think people enable it through their mouse software and never the windows version.

I usually go no Acceleration, Low In game sense, higher DPI on Mouse. It fluctuates depending on how I'm playing. But right now I'm at 1200 dpi, 2.4 in game. ADS adjustment is 30-32% depending on which hitscan I'm playing.

I checked something here. If you disable acceleration in Windows, the sensitivity in the game will not change. Disabling acceleration will only be noticeable in the main menu.

You're right. I just don't want it in my menu's. lol

It's a weird, inconsistency thing for me. Muscle Memory factors in. Everything has to feel similar and relative.

does that mean I can not disable it in Windows?

enhanced pointer precision from W10 mouse settings should be always unchecked.
if you have Acceleration settings in your mouse app always disable it, my mouse from Steelseries has Acceleration and Deceleration settings both should be disabled.

you disable it from the Mouse - other mouse options/ pointer options, off,
However, it works better with higher DPI's and if you have a separate mouse acceleration app, it can help it be a lot more consistent with the things you do,
