Sensitivity and Frames per second

[Quackerjack]

Hi,

is the sensitivity influenced by the fps number?

I ask this because i got the feeling if i cap my fps at a constant number  the sensitivity feels slower. If i uncap the sensitivity it feels a bit faster. So if u have fluctuating fps numbers the sensitivity becomes fast and slow, even with raw input.

I googled it a lot and some ppl say yes some no.

Hope some wizard can help me on that

For some games, but that's a bug/bad coding in the game.

It's mentioned in the notes for the game if it is the case.

I talk about Csgo with raw input on.

I know if raw input off its change ur sensitivity 100 percent, but i got the feeling with raw input on its the same.

I don't know of any issues in CSGO regarding this, it should stay the same regardless of FPS.

The Source engine including  CS:GO has and anomaly when capping fps

Don't cap your fps in CS:GO especially at the same number as your tickrate!

The original source unfortunately got deleted :/ I only have this picture to show what I mean (Note: I do not created this graph.)

 

Regarding your questtion tho: No, fps do not effect sensitivity in CS:GO, but dawtimes on the Frames when capped.

In other games I still recommend capping fps so your aim feels more consistent, but only when there is a build in fps-limiter into the game. All third party tool will add input-lag!

Which makes it feel a little faster because it responds quicker, I get that but just play uncapped or max out the frame limiter, Can't feel much difference between games 500+ fps on CS, 300 on Overwatch , 1000 on Aim Hero. They all feel the same when moving the cursor IMO just starting and stopping that feels slightly different because of the response time.
