What is the native dpi of the corsair M95?

[Slater]

Hey there everyone, just been trying to figure out what the native dpi of my Corsair M95 is since i've read that using dpi's other than native can introduce interpolation and whatnot. I tried to find out what the native DPI is but couldn't find anything, the only thing i found was a thread on overclock.net which listed what sensors different mice used. (http://www.overclock.net/t/854100/gaming-mouse-sensor-list)

 

The corsair m95 apparently uses an A9800 sensor which i have no clue what that is, i'm assuming its an Avago ADNS-9800 sensor?

 

Any help would  be appreciated

its an 8200DPI sensor

50-6400cpi, scaling done from 800, anything above 6400 is past actual hardwarecapability.

Hmm so was i misunderstanding what "native dpi" is? Is native dpi just the dpi that it is advertised as being capable of working up to? Or is native dpi the step(s) of dpi that it performs best at.

 

With my current understanding, i thought that if a mouse has a native dpi of 800 then all multiples of 800 would be native vs something like 2500. Could someone clear that up for me?

To put it simply. it is what the Sensor is capable of without resorting to trickery or MCU calculations, if certain steps work better than others, is another topic.

Ok so in regards to your previous response are you basically saying that any multiple of 800 is "native" on the M95 with no additional trickery or anything like that?
