Okey I bought new razer abyssus mouse and have few questions
So firstly if I make SC2 sensitivity to 54 then I can't adjust mouse dpi for my needs - 450dpi is too low, 1800dpi is too high and 3500dpi is also too high sensitivity for me. So it's best to put mouse dpi on max(3500) and make SC2 sensitivity just like it is comfortable for me, or? Now on SC2 it is only 17, and on windows it's 2/11. Is there any advantage in lowering mouse dpi and increasing windows/SC2 sensitivity?
I recently got the exact same mouse and had the same problem Okey I bought new razer abyssus mouse and have few questions

What you wrote doesn't make much sense, though, 2/11 in Windows is 16:1, so you'd effectively get 3500/16=218.75 dpi.
I chose 1800 dpi and 4/11 (2:1), which gives me 900 dpi.

It's kind of hard to figure out the exact border lines of the intervals, so I suggest avoiding multiples of 5% (50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, etc.) because the borders will be fractions of these numbers. Set your sensitivity between multiples of 5 (theres no difference between 51%--54%; 71--74; 96--99 [and 100]; etc. There is no 100.0000000000001% or 0.9999999999% so it works out no matter what your screen resolution is).

- There are only 20 mouse settings in starcraft2 (1--5, 5--10, 10--15, etc.), even though there more than 100 notches on the slider.
- for 1:1 ratio of mouse movement to cursor movement, set your in-game sensitivity to anything between 51%--54% [with "enhance pointer precision" turned off in windows] -- not 50% as people previously thought (although it sort of is 50%; it's just that you can't see what the decimal point on the number is so it's safer to use 51--54) (that is, 51%, 52%, 53%, and 54% are all exactly the same mouse speed).
This information isn't entirely correct. These are the results i got from playing with Mouse Movement Recorder:If you want you sc2 sensitivity to be the same as your windows sensitivity..
windows sens x 9.09 = sc2 sens

0-9% -> 32:1 (same as 1st notch in Windows)
11-14% -> 16:1 (2nd notch)
16-19% -> 8:1
21-24% -> 4:1 (3rd notch)
26-29% -> 8:3
31-34% -> 2:1 (4th notch)
36-39% -> 8:5
41-44% -> 4:3 (5th notch)
46-49% -> 8: 7
51-54% -> 1:1 (6th notch)
56-59% -> 4:5
61-64% -> 2:3 (7th notch)
66-69% -> 4: 7
71-74% -> 1:2 (8th notch)
76-79% -> 4: 9
81-84% -> 2:5 (9th notch)
86-89% -> 4:11
91-94% -> 1:3 (10th notch)
96-99% -> 4:13
100% -> 2: 7 (11th notch)
So, 0-4% and 6-9% is the same, 99% and 100% isn't the same and the Win*9.09 formula is wrong.
