Mouse DPI + Resolution Difference

[tismanasou]

Hi guys,

 

I have a monitor running on 1680x1050 resolution. I want to change to 1920x1080 resolution.

 

I also have a mouse running on 800 dpi, on 1680x1050 monitor. I want the mouse movement to remain the same after i switch to 1920x1080 resolution.

 

So the question is, will the mouse movement remain the same or i need to increase my DPI settings?

 

As i see it i think i will need to change my current DPI but i need you guys to give me a clear answer and help me calculate percisely.

 

Thanks in advance

increase... you will need to cover more real estate

 

if you go by a ratio of pure pixel count then i would say about 950-1000 dpi will be about the same

wrong.

changing res will not affect your sensitivity.

No, but using a higher resolution requires more movement to go across the screen. I just tested it by going from 1080p to 1366x768.

thought this was posted in the "esport" forum so i thought he talks about ingame sensitivity. 

Sorry.  :unsure: 

edit: 914 DPI is your way to go btw.
