Mouse Sensitivity Questions

[Bakala]

Recently i started searching videos on how to become a better CS:GO player and came across a video that mentioned mouse sensitivity. Being a novice with PC gaming, i'm not informed on the subject at all. I've seen alot of videos and articles about mouse sensitivity, and yet remain with more questions than answers because of the trend that this information has, to deliver instructions as if i'm already immersed and have a grip of the technicalities that they are simply throwing out there.

 

I use a decade old Sony Vaio mouse, and a mouse pad from rite aid. 

 

So having said this, my questions are..

 

-How do i find the so called DPI? I went into control panel>mouse>mouse properties (my pointer speed is 6/11, and i turned off enhance pointer precision)

i also turned mouse acceleration off in the games i play. All this because apparently it is recommended to do this (as well as turning raw input on where possible) in order to find a better sensitivity?

 

- If i find my perfect sensitivity/setup, would this work in all games and not just CS:GO?

 

- What's the whole process?

 

Thanks.

To my knowledge, you can't adjust the DPI in windows. If your mouse is a gaming branded mouse, it should have drivers from the official website that allow you to adjust the DPI. I recommend setting yours on 1800 DPI, as this is the best balance imo. Everything else that you've done in windows is good. Mouse acceleration is a pain in games. I didnt realise that I had it on when I was playing bf4 for the first time . If you google "windows mouse acceleration fix" and click on the first link, it will show you how to fix mouse acceleration in windows, not just the games that have that option. If you do this, it will definitely work in all games. Great videos by Levelcap and XFactorgaming on youtube, they're a bit outdated and they focus on battlefield but the process is the same. Hope I could help.
