Mouse DPI

[Gold3n]

Hi,

 

In video:

 

It was basically said that higher dpi would make more error and less accurate, no math calculations were shown... can someone explain this in detail. Thank You.

Walk slowly and try to weave through a crowd of people.

Now sprint and try to weave through the same crowd of people.

 

You're going to run into a lot more people in the second case because you lose accuracy as you move faster. The same applies with DPI. A higher DPI means that you need to move the mouse a shorter distance to cover the same on screen distance, which means that its much harder to be accurate.

lol, that is not what i am talking about. You can adjust that in game sensitivity. watch the video?

When you have a higher DPI it's like having a high sensitivity in game, it literally feels like that, therefore I think thats why the video said higher DPI  would make more error and less accurate because the mouse cursor is moving way too fast (you get the point..) 

high dpi= high sensitivity basically its the same feeling.

This topic makes no sense without math. It was suggested in the video that higher dpi would be less accurate because of some errors calculating virtual pixels.
