Been using 600 eDPI for 2.5 years
Changed to 800 eDPI in 2019/01/21
Changed to 1200 eDPI in 2021/03/27

Windows Sensitivity: 6/11
In-game Sensitivity: 0.375
DPI Sens: 3200 DPI (high DPI is appropriate for high-res)
eDPI: 1200
Zoom: zoom_sensitivity_ratio_mouse "0.835373"
In-game Res: 2560x1440
Refresh Rate: 240hz

I don't use 1024x768 res.
I've been sticking w/ 1440p 240hz (2560x1440) since i got serious w/ CSGO.
(e.g. Hitting a distant target's head becomes less strenuous w/ higher res)
