Mouse setting question

[Dimetime35c]

I am wondering what should I set the windows mouse sensitivity to get the best dpi settings on my mouse? Does the windows setting change the dpi setting of my mouse or is it a 1 to 1 ratio???

Default should be fine, 6/11 is the preset one and you don't need to change it.

Whatever is comfortable for you?

Is it a 1 to 1 ratio? I'm trying to get it so that when I change mice there is no extra variables in settings that changes.

6/11 is the default (1:1) settings which is the best if you don't want Windows to screw things up. Going lower isn't too bad but you should absolutely never go higher or the cursor accuracy will suffer. You can test different settings by trying to draw circles (with a pen/brush tool) in an image editing program. On higher setting you will notice skipping which will cause the circles to look aliased/stepped instead of being smooth.

 

You should also disable "Enhance pointer precision" (Windows' acceleration) while in the mouse settings.

Is 6/11 meaning 6 to 11? So like setting it to 8.5 would be the middle of the road?

It means the 6th peg, out of 11.

Okay thanks for the help dude.
