800 DPI vs 1600 DPI shakiness? Question.

#1

Jedeco

I normally play .41 at 800 DPI and feels shaky but when I instead .205 at 1600 DPI, the shakiness disappeared. Has anyone encountered this? Is it 'cause the mouse is registering more when it comes to micro aiming? Can anyone test this out and give me your feedback. Thanks!

obviously playing at a higher dpi improves sensor input but its most likely just placebo

I didn't really switch to higher dpi for Valorant. It's cause I do day trading and have to swap to multiple monitors so I increased my DPI. That's why I don't think its a placebo thing.

You have to lower your in-game sens. It should be the same, that's why I put 1600 dpi @ .205 and 800 dpi @ .41

bro... im not dumb. for example with clove when you place smokes, its like moving your cursor around. nothing to do with your sens

Ohh I didn't even know that LMAO since I don't play Clove or atleast havent tried on the new sens. I didn't know it was just based off DPI.

My man I found a fix, you can just lower your "mouse pointer speed" on the windows settings and it works. It doesn't affect your in-game sens and keeps your DPI.

Play whatever feels good for u…
For me 1000dpi is my sweet spot… at 1600 it’s shaky however my edpi is 480, at 800 it’s too rough n doesn’t pick up on some stuff

I run 1200 and I think it works well, but nah I haven't experienced shakiness differences.

it depends on your playstyle really and how you are as a person I use 400 DPI cause I like the stability and run 0.8 sens which is a 320 EDPI with 8k polling rate (i know i shouldn't use 8k for battery life but i like the way it feels)
