February 21, 20187 yr Hello, Is 400DPI WPS 6/11 better than 1600DPI WPS 3/11 ? In other words : Is 2 sensitivity 400dpi better than 0.5 sensitivity 1600dpi Using Logitech G900 wireless at 1000hz Windows and games on 2560x1440 165Hz Thank you Edited February 21, 20187 yr by espe89
March 3, 20187 yr Technically a higher dpi with lower in game sensitivity gives a more smooth input due to there being more steps/pixels per count. It has been discussed in a couple threads on here so try to search for those, I don't really have the vocabularity or knowledge to explain it anyway There's some info in this thread to get you started:

July 10, 20196 yr I think its better to go with lower dpi one their something called pixel skipping the higher your dpi the more pixels you skip

You skip pixels if you change your cursor speed artificially with windows pointer speed. If you want the cursor to move faster without increasing the mouse cpi, then you have to make the cursor move more than 1 pixel.
July 11, 20196 yr Pixel skipping is what happens when your mouse is moving more dots per inch than the hardware can actually go, ie 400dpi mouse moving at 800 dpi you can find this on the overwatch form windows pointer speed does not effect all games the games depend on the mouse dpi Edited July 11, 20196 yr by Nao
July 11, 20196 yr Sure, but the mouse will always operate at whatever dpi you set it to be it 50 or 16000, pixel skipping is what happens when you set the dpi too low and compensate by raising the sensitivity, remember that dpi is only the resolution? of the mouse and not directly related to the sensitivity. The relationship between the dpi and in game sensitivity is what matters, technically you could get pixel skipping at whatever dpi but since games only allow you to go so high it's only really a problem at 400 dpi or so on high resolution displays.
July 12, 20196 yr Stick to integers and avoid the bad steps, if you want to maintain consistency across various configurations. Going below 6/11 requires division (Non Integer) alonside an accumulator (Hidden Counts). Sticking to integer configs, 6/11, 8/11 and 10/11, removes division and the accumulator. Just divide game sensitivity and it will be identical across various DPI and sensitivities.

July 13, 20196 yr Ideally microsoft would change the behavior of removing the accumulator if dividing by 2, by dropping every other count. Edited July 13, 20196 yr by hohn
