TopicWhat's a good DPI for FPS?

Just think about what the abbreviation stands for.

Dots per inch. Is your hand accurate enough for 3200 units per inch? Not even close. You're just causing jitter and unneccessary movements with such high sens.

If you really like high sens, you can still do it with lower DPI.

This is why people play CS at really low eDPI but have to raise it for games like Apex.

There's high sens and there's 3200dpi sens.

Been playing CS for 20 years, I'm at the highest rank on every platform, also in top 0.5% Valorant. I play at 400dpi, 1.75 CSGO and 0.55 Valorant.

That's 11.6inches or 30cm for 180degree turn.

Obviously, games are different and if you have to make huge turns in those games, you're out of position, but I can easily make consecutive 180degree shots when playing deathmatch.

Your hardware also plays a big role. For years I've thought that lightweight mouse are a gimmick, but they're not. Playing with 120g mouse compared to 70g feels like a whole new set of gravity rules have been applied. Mousepad also matters.

I know nothing about Apex, but your aim seems shaky there, like it's not steady. That's probably due to high DPI.

There are exceptions in every game, pros who play at ridiculous sens, but they're really rare. Check the sens range pros use and try it out. If every pro uses it, then there has to be something to it, right?
