Effects of Aspect Ratio on Sensitivity

[Space]

Does aspect ratio effect sensitivity? I understand that the feeling of sensitive may vary, but does the amount of mouse movement change to reach a certain point? I have mixed results from google and I'm leaning toward no.

It depends on the game and which axis you measure the movement on.

Some keep a persistent horizontal FOV, some vertical FOV, some changes both, some keep the same 360 distance, others have the 360 distance either affected by the change in FOV or in some cases even the change in horizontal or vertical resolution.

There's a lot of different ways this can work, so using the calculator is the best way to see what actually happens.
