So I was thinking about my eventual move to 4k and mouse sensitivity changing with different resolutions because of the more pixels. I use 1800 dpi, my mouse goes u to 2500. Most games now use degrees to measure sensitivity So changing my resolution to 4k won't affect that. But I was wondering about Windows itself, I don't want to change my mouse dpi but I want it to feel the same as it does now. But changing windows sensitivity apparently messes with things if it's not 6/11. so can I have the seemingly same sensitivity on Windows in 4k as I do now in 1080p

I would guess that does not refer in any way to a certain amount of pixels, so, in theory, leaving everything as it is should maintain the same speed across different resolutions

Actually I have just tried scaling my screen with DSR, and yes, the sensitivity is lower. I guess it made no sense for the programmers to keep it consistent.

Well, just double the sensitivity of the mouse! Oh, you can't.

See? they're tricking you into buying a new mouse!!11!11!!!1!!
