Mouse settings for CS:GO (DPI)

ApexArticO5
Go to solution Solved by Kaas0001,

Its all preference

Some people like higher dpi

 

On CoD I always go with a high sensitivity because I' m used to it, and i finally found my sweet spot

 

Every game, every setting is preference., however, you can use other peoples tips ad tricks to get the best out of it

 

But like I said with DPI, its all about preference if you want to barely move your hand to move 30 times around, or have to flick the mouse 16 times across your desk to move 1 meter.. all up to you

Hello, recently bough a new mouse and I want to understand what DPI should I choose for CSGO? On google it shows that "pro" DPI is 400, but I also read that this is only because older gaming mouses supported only up to 400 DPI and that what they got used to. So is there a DPI sweet spot for best efficiency or is it just preference?

Just use the native resolution of the sensor 🙂

I sometimes wonder how we went to space on only 4KB RAM, and we cannot fix a simple issue.

You might be able to see it in logitech G hub, even though I wouldn't recommend using it. I use a Logitech MX518 and G hub creates a virtual mice interface in device manager, which seem to have an effect on input lag for some reason. If profiles is stored on the mice, you can simply uninstall G hub after setting up the profile.

or skip it entirely. This is common app used for mouse tinkerers who are using G305 PCB on another mouse's body.

Go for at least 1200dpi.

 

 

Lower dpi = higher latency.

Great, i went for 1600 and I'm glad, seems like that is sort of a sweet spot.

Thanks, got it, do I still need the GHub with it?

Unless you go with multiple DPI settings, not really. It flashes your peripherals onboard memory straight instead of just saving it in your computer. But if you need macro on logi you need G Hub sadly.
