what mouse dpi do you guys play at

[HappyCrasher]

I've beaten this on ultra nightmare, the dlc on ultra nightmare, and i cleared the gore nest master levels 10 challenges, best dpi I've found for it is 4800, I used to use 6000 but i realised headshots were impossible with that so i put it down a little

2500?

There are 25.4 millimeters per inch. Divide this by 2500 "dot divisions" and you have 0.01 millimeters for each division.

This is 1/100 of a millimeter. Go look at a meter stick, see how small a millimeter is and then imagine dividing that into 100 more divisions.

Anything above frankly, 500 dpi (5/100 of a millimeter) is stretching what a human can even sense and is nothing more than corporate marketing for you to buy into the next big thing.

also i didnt say 2500 i said 4800

Facts are facts. This is grade school level mathematics.

If you want to believe you are super human and can sense 1/100 of a millimeter, then you go right ahead. Corporate is looking for exactly people like you to sell a product too.

i measured it, I move my mouse, from the left side of my monitor to the right, by moving it about half an inch, its not impossible

I guess I am superhuman enough to use 2500 as my standard dpi for general computer use then.

Put your mouse on a meter stick and try to move it 1 millimeter to the right. If you try this, you'll probably find that moving 1 millimeter is pretty challenging and requires some focus to keep steady.

What I'm claiming is, no matter how tiny of a movement you can make with your mouse, that movement will always be larger than 1/100 of a millimeter (2500 DPI). The human hand simply cannot match that accuracy. 1/100 of a millimeter is 10 micrometers (microns), which is around 5 times smaller than the width of a human hair. Seriously...pull off a hair, hold it up to a light and look at how thin it is. Now try imagining something 500% smaller than that.

If you feel that your tiniest of movements is about the width of a hair, then that's 500 DPI. If you feel you are literally 100% better (can move half the width of hair), then that's 1000 DPI.

If you feel that your tiniest of movements is about 1/5 the width of a hair (2500 DPI), then I will claim, you are probably mistaken. 10 microns is on the border of whether the human eye can even detect such change.

If you have 10,000 DPI, then I will claim, you have been conned.

I have mine set to a DPI of 1300, report rate of 1000 and windows 10 pointer speed at mid. this is at 4k on a 55inch screen.

Congratulations!

I have no doubt you will SEE a difference with an accuracy that is beyond what your human eye can even detect.

*slow clap*

It's not really about what "I can see" but what I feel when using higher dpi.

5000 it's my standard dpi

thats not how dpi works, it changes completely based on the resolution and size of the monitor, you're claiming we cant react like that, of course, you cant make single pixel movements, you don't need to, you need to move a few thousand pixels in a movement, its not like we're claiming to move with pixel perfect precision, wtf are you talking about

[Destroyer]

I can't play on lower DPI's, I couldn't stand slow mouse movement

[f0lzen]

windows 10 6/11, precision pointer turned off, in-game scaling sens 2.74 | 40/40 |
DPI 800 / Polling rate 1000hz

I understand that. But realize, that this "extra goodness" you are feeling from higher dpi...isn't coming from your human senses, because they can't sense micron accuracy.

The DPI setting in your mouse does not change with resolution or the size of your monitor. The only thing that changes your DPI is your DPI.

Movement of your mouse is directly linked to the number of pixels to move across. The movement of your mouse is not designed to "preserve length", meaning, that 1 inch motion of your mouse does not mean you will have 1 inch motion on your screen. Length is not preserved, because DPI is directly related to pixels.
