This is wrong. It does not make it more accurate. Infact I've done my own personal tests and found a couple of my mice have increased negative accelerations and a non linear sensitivity increase with the higher ends of DPI. The fact is, it really is a sensitivity modifier and you should leave it alone with the value that is most sensible. Maxing it to 5k and reducing mouse sensitivity with other means is a recipe for inefficient aiming. edit. I should say that some mouse have different native DPI and ways they calculate DPI. f.e. The Xai, is natively at 1620 dpi I believe (just google it to confirm), and it calculates DPI in increments of 90. If you chose an awkward number like 1234, it would use an additional layer of software to calculate sensitivity. With every calculation, you get rounding errors, thus less accuracy. Also, I found it flat out ignored alot of the values i pumped in until I hit some value thresholds, so best to stick to a number divisible by 90. So I personally use it at around 540dpi (6/11 windows, 51% sc2). Yes, might be the slowest aim in SC2 forums it appears, but it's really freaking fast to me (compared with the 180 dpi I used to use) | ||

450 is just laughable and 3500 is out of this world for me, lol. | ||

Enhanced Pointer Precision OFF Slider notch 6 on Windows (Vista) Mouse Speed in Starcraft 2 is OFF (I love that they put that in there, so great) It's slow but I really feel like its helped me. I'm a lefty using a right handed setup, just because like many lefties it's the way I've been acclimated to computers from age 5. I saw IdrA's stream and his mouse seemed much slower than I expected, but very calculated and very perfect with the clicks. That is exactly how I want to play. I've worked with a lot of settings and this seems the best. The slowness has really helped the control and my "overshooting" which was a problem. Just a standard 3 button mouse, little flat mouse that is very symmetrical and has the 1 piece top where the buttons bounce back up really quickly. I liked it so much I bought 3 of them so I will have them in case of incident. + Show Spoiler + mo5013ru ![[image loading]](http://www.superbiiz.com/newg/M/O/-/MO-5013RU/MO-5013RU.JPG) | ||
