400 DPI, 1.0x sensitivity, Precision off in both window and osu

810dpi, 1.0 in osu! and 6/11 windows. No acceleration.

Now I have a new mouse: Logitech G100.

Windows: 6/11 with Precision off
osu!: 0.7~0.8×, depending on screen resolution.
Mouse DPI: Often 1,000dpi, but thanks to the on-the-fly sensitivity switch, I may use 2,500dpi on spinners (which is the main reason I bought this mouse, since I can spin at constant speed when spinning wide)

New mouse: Roccat Savu
400dpi
6/11, mouse precision on (modified with MarkC Acceleration fix)
osu!: 1.0x

This mouse has the best sensor of any mouse I've ever used (no acceleration even at >3m/s, or >4m/s if set to 800dpi). I was thinking of switching to 800dpi just for the higher speedcap, but I've only ever reached speeds higher than 1 m/s in osu! when I'm spinning.

What's the problem with windows being at other settings than 6/11 ?
I'm using a mouse with changeable DPI's, I use it at 2100 DPI but windows at 3/11 :o (Acceleration ticked off but never applyed any fixes)
(If someone can explain me the benefit for using 6/11 instead of 3/11 I would like to know the exact DPI I must use with 6/11 for having the same feel as now)

Use 2100/4= 525dpi with 6/11 sensitivity.
The difference is that with 3/11 windows ignores 3/4 of the point movements detected by your mouse to move the cursor in the screen.

In the end, there should not be any difference, but can try it anyways.
5/11, 7/11, 9/11 and 11/11 are the windows setting you should never use, because they have uneven pixel/point ratio.
Also anything above 6/11 inherently loses accuracy (the cursor skips pixels in the screen).

I use non 6/11 as well. Is the precision loss substantial or are we talking about just a 3/4 chance of being off by 1 pixel?

With 5/11, 7/11, 9/11 and 11/11. You have a 50% chance of being off by 1 pixel + there may be pixel skipping.
Anything above 6/11 skips pixels.
1/11, 2/11, 3/11, 4/11 and 6/11 are good settings.

If windows used floating point numbers for cursor position (so the cursor can be in-between 2 pixels), 1/11 and very high dpi would be the best.

I use 8/11, and you haven't mentioned anything about that

8/11 skips every second pixel, but otherwise is fine. If your mouse has adjustable DPI it would benefit your accuracy if you went 6/11 and used double of what you have now.

@Full Tablet: Windows doesn't use floating point for cursor position AFAIK... It would be more beneficial to find the DPI that your mouse tracks best at (which is usually not the max DPI) and use that in combination with a good, comfortable setting at 6/11 or below (excluding 5/11 due to uneven-ness) instead of using an inaccurate setting to pointlessly drop pixels.

1000 dpi, 1.0x default windows sens, some casual Microsoft Mouse. The sens is so ingrained in my muscle memory that I never felt the need to change it.

I just don't get how people can play with dpi as low as 450. You get so much faster tired in your hand, and you have to move your hand like 20 cms just to get to the other side of the screen. I use 1700 dpi now(changed up to 6/11 windows speed) and I really can not see my self ever using anything lower.

Pretty sure a 400dpi mouse takes 6.5cm to move across a 1024x768 screen, but that's besides the point. I guess it's something you get used to, it's actually not as tiring as people seem to think.

There are a lot of pro FPS players that use what a lot of non-competitive people like to consider "low sensitivity" when in reality it's just the non-pros using a high sensitivity. The Microsoft IntelliMouse 3.0 was and still is one of the most popular mice among pro Counter-Strike players and weighs just as much as your Razer Taipan, and many of the pro players use a sensitivity that requires >30cm of movement for a 360-turn.

Thanks for that info. My mouse is a cheap one I got for $5, so it doesn't have adjustable DPI. However, skipping every second pixel doesn't seem like that big of a deal, seeing how hitcircles would always be larger than 1 pixel, and the only problem that can arise is missing the edge of a circle.
