I play on 2.6k DPI 1980 x 1080. I'm pretty comfortable with my aim and accuracy.

Mouse Sensitivity Guide (High DPI vs Low DPI)

I use 1200 DPI with my mouse; I use the finger grip style also. I can't imagine going any lower without either developing some super finger strength, or switching grip styles to use my arm to move the mouse.
Impossibruh! How can anyone play at such a low sensitivity is beyond me. Just tried 400, on the same resolution 1024x768, and the cursor barely even moves. Jumps and transitions are like impossible, but i guess with practise it becomes easier.LoGo wrote:

Raw Input, 1000 dpi on 1366x768
I think i hit the sweet spot, the dpi is enough for me to do precise snap jump.

yep, requires quite some practice, but after some time you don't get tired so fast (but would want to try 800 dpi mouse (400 is max for my mouse ))ditzix wrote:

I'm surprised at the efficiency of this lower dpi. I am getting less misses, I have more stability, cable resistance is less noticeable. But my hand friggin hurts!
Just finished a 4 hour play session... Started using 400dpi today on 1024x768 instead of 2000dpi and 1024x768 and my hand is killing me right now. So far i noticed that lower dpi kinda improves my streaming, and spining, but who am i to say, as i only started playing osu 1 month ago.
There is definetly improvement in stability, but as it's only the first day of change, i can't judge it yet.
I had to go back to easy and normals again, cause the difference in mouse movement is huge, and my muscle memory is useless now.

Raw 3200dpi on 1920x1080
I feel like I've been playing this game wrong since no one's dpi anywhere close to that at all right now.

Exactly 2 weeks have passed since I wrote this, and I think the result speaks for itself:KukiMonster wrote:
I will continue to use this for the next 2 weeks
pp went up by roughly 400, which is a 20% increase in a relatively short amount of time. Fun fact: I've played less in the last 2 weeks than I did in the one week before I started this, due to arm pain while adjusting to new playstyle. I recommend for others out there who are fingertip like me to try lower sens if you haven't done so already.
I will update the first post.
I think I'll stick with 1600 dpi till I actually hit a wall. I don't like moving my mouse like a madman nor do I have the stamina for it.
changing to 750dpi here (from 1000dpi) with 1280x800 play-field since a week ago. so far It's pretty good actually.
Dropped my dpi down to 1600 since my post yesterday. Still not sure about the changes being the right thing to do, due to that my current mouse has crazy sensor drift. Waiting for my new mouse to arrive in the mail before playing again.
Salochin is a hybrid click style mouse player who uses 3000-3600 dpi depending on the map and is ranked on the top 1k (he's currently inactive to finish off last semester of classes and had carpet tunel in his mouse hand from playing 8 hours a day).AcrylicBlaze wrote:

My dpi adventure continues. A moment ago I changed to the lowest this mouse has to offer (400dpi) and set the in-game res to 1440x900. That's equal to ~341dpi at 1024x768. Although this may seem like another drastic change, it actually feels quite similar to 800dpi. I'm having no problem adjusting, although I did rearrange my cables and stuff on my desk to make room, that was a lot of work.
Okay I lied, I'm still playing. Seems to be getting used to the lower dpi and increased drift now. Previously on 3.2k dpi I would almost surely break before 700 combo or something due to a complete miss-aim that I will always get, but now I seem to be able to avoid that with lower dpi. Still having problem with jumps after switching dpi, but control-wise I've probably improved!
So far, I feel this change has helped me become a better player, albeit playing terribly for the first few days of switching. I think I will be staying at this dpi for a while, if not until I find a need to go back to 3.2k (I miss spinning >400spm, not that it matters).

Cool, I went to check his page out as well as his youtube. How he is so accurate clicking the circles is pretty amazing to me, especially since I changed to zx because I couldn't click and aim at the same time without moving the cursor by quite a visible amount at 3.5k dpichainpullz wrote:

800 DPI on 1920x1080 and 1.3x mouse sensitivity, i feel i should try some raw input, get a slightly higher mouse dpi (or not) and put mouse sensitivity to 1x.
1200 dpi 9/11 1280x800 x1.35 and I suck lol
~700 DPI, x0.55, 1280x600, raw input on.
I don't need to move my whole arm though.

I used to play 4k dpi, 1920x1080, 6/11, 1.0. Changed to 2k dpi 4-5 weeks ago.
thinking to switch back to mouse, is it really worth? :\
If you wanna practice quad tapping in mouse like me and always motivated to do it, then yeah it's worth it.
If you wanna switch to mouse just because you hit a "pp wall", maybe not.
If you played Osu with tablet for so long, it's not worth it!

That is entirely up to you. Most will agree that tablet is much easier to play with but that may not always be true.Adicchi wrote:

I decided I want to be a good mouse player, that's my reason.

low DPI is dumb,look at Doomsday,he plays with 1300 DPI
I was a low dpi user before, the reason why I switch to tab bc I can be able to simulate all my screen in one tab (using full area and 1366x768) so it mean that I'm dumb :\
I've been playing with 800dpi, 1024x768, x1 sensitivity for a few months now, and haven't really had any trouble with anything, also planning not to change it.
I'm playing with......uuuummm......idk,probably 800 dpi
My mouse sensitivity is 1 but my dpi is 1000
good job
Fullscreen and mouse acceleration all the way!

Congrats you will go far.
1300 is fairly low, but each to his own playstyle.CptBlackBird wrote:

yeah this this thread was an eye opener lol, 4/11 windows off, 4000 dpi and 0.58 osu sensitivity, dont ask, i think i was drunk or abducted by aliens, now its alot more normal and after some getting used to i can see it have a pretty big impact on my play, no more nervous twitches to the other side of the screen for this guy
I don't know about others, but personally i was playing on high dpi for a very long time ( 3600 dpi ) and was at the lvl of current #15000 - 20000. Then i switched to 800 dpi with 1366x768 resolution on fullscreen. It may feel weird at the beginning, but when you get used to it, it's much more accurate.
2,000 DPI @ full screen woot poot

Actually, I play at 200CPI in MW3 and 100 CPI in CS:GO (and considering getting a smaller keyboard so I can go lower).ZenithPhantasm wrote:
