3200-3800 depending on what game, I used to use 5300 though, but I've been trying to get it down a bit to not be so jerky with my movements.

Stuff:  i7 7700k @ (dat nibba succ) | ASRock Z170M OC Formula | G.Skill TridentZ 3600 c16 | EKWB 1080 @ 2100 mhz  |  Acer X34 Predator | R4 | EVGA 1000 P2 | 1080mm Radiator Custom Loop | HD800 + Audio-GD NFB-11 | 850 Evo 1TB | 840 Pro 256GB | 3TB WD Blue | 2TB Barracuda

do you game that way? I think I would find that hard even on the desktop.

Im more accurate at 800 significantly but like turning too slow.

mhm, diamond 1 with it.

Wow do you guys even really have to move your hand?

Pretty much not, If i go back to lower DPI mice I find it tiring to move my hand loads.

I can get from one corner of one monitor to the edge of the second by just moving a small amount its nice.

 

And yeah I game a fair bit with it this way. The only game I turn it down in is Fallout as in that its crazy twitchy in the menus, must be an option I missed.

Roughly a 35cm 360 in the main games I play (CS:GO/BF4).

450 for...everything. If it were a perfect world i'd be using 400

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it

You should put the Windows mouse speed to 6 / 11 and then tune the DPI to fit your needs for the best results, not the other way around.

1400 DPI on my Logitech Performance MX, really liked the higher DPI back when I was using triple monitors @ 5000*1080 resolution but now I'm down to two (sold dah graphics card cause I was broke). I find 1400 a little fast in some games like shooters and aiming can be frustrating now and then so I might bump it down to 1200-1300 for that.

6200, and it feels slow...

 

Then your windows settings are messed up or you have 3-4 monitors. You should be crossing your entire screen in a third of an inch of mouse movement.

Nah, nothing is messed up. I just got used to the speed. Yeah, It goes across both screens with a flick of my hand.

I use 8200dpi with a sensitivity setting to 6 it's where I'm most comfortable at.

Live your life like a dream.

4500 dpi with windows settings four clicks in. 1000hz ultrapolling (whatever it's called). I play GW2 at 30hz so I need the sensitivity high.
