is it better to have a low sensitivity on windows and high dpi on mouse or the other way around?

im using 3/11 with 3500 dpi atm and im thinking if 6/11 with 1800 dpi is better for 1:1 accuracy

I am really glad i found this thread. I have been struggling with my mouse settings. I have one question - does it make sense to buy an expenssive mouse pad or any cheap one will do?

Price != Quality. But a good mousing surface that feels natural is a good investment.

Attention! 6/11 *in windows* (the middle line) shows up as 5.5/10 *in the death adder driver*!
I personally use 6/11 together with 900 dpi and it feels good for me @51% in starcraft.
I also recently used the "marc windows 7 mouse fix" and tested with the included program for 1:1 translation.

I use 1800 dpi on a 1920x1080 screen. Left everything on default basically which means sensitivity and stuff is all default. My polling rate is 1000hz. my windows Sensitivity is 6/11 which is defaultt. I play at 54% ingame sc2 and 1920x1080.

I got a RazerDeathAdder a few days ago and after 2 days and I decided on
6/11 on Windows
6/10 in Razer
1800 DPI in Razer settings
54% in sc2
it OWNS.

Great minds think alike eh?

alright so there's 3 settings that will adjust your sensitivity and its kind of confusing in this thread which one people are referring to... First there's the Sensitivity settings in windows, then razor has 2 separate settings in it's driver interface, one is a general sensitivity, then there's an advanced sensitivity tab that also has a Windows pointer option...

so do you guys mean...

6/11 in WINDOWS
6/10 in Razor general sensitivity
6/10 in Razor Advanced sensitivity Windows Mouse Pointer

I'm trying that out right now but if i want it a little more sensitive not sure when one i should be adjusting.

The following poster already posted a pic of the three settings

yes, should be default. just adjust the % in sc2 to your preference.

My Deathadder settings:

DPI 3500
6/11 Windows
1000 hz
Acceleration OFF
Mouse scrolling 19% (in-game)

I got used to a 3200 dpi mouse so 1800 dpi feels slow for me.

Sorry to bump but I just got this mouse and have a quick Q: like the pic 2 posts ago I can't set accel to off, only as low as possible on the slider. Is that ok?

Think I got the rest of the settings right.

Ok, I think I got it. It looks like if accel is on there is a green highlight behind the word on and if it's off there is no highlight. At least that's what I'm assuming for now.

My Deathadder 3.5G settings.

Default windows sensitivity.
3500 DPI
1000hz
Acceleration off (on top of Mark C mouse fix)
In-game 51% (optimal is between 50% and 60%, not 50%0
Razer sensitivity 2

Note: As long as you have the Mark C mouse fix on, you don't have to worry about in-game being locked to windows. However, many games already bypass that bug.

Edit: Recently changed mine to 1800DPI, 1000hz, razer sen 4. Feels a little more precise. I have an aluminum keyboard so high DPI isn't so good.

hello I got a question; there has been a new update for the drivers, called Synapse 2.0; and a lot of setting options have changed and now with the synapse 2.0 my deathadder has a different feel and there's nothing I can do about it there no real option to customize settings for deathadder 3.5g... anyone has a work around on the synapse 2.0 using the old settings which i liked?

Uhh it should have the option to change accel/dpi/polling rate just like the old one? O.o

I have a naga and it kept all the same settings.

You can also just use the old drivers and deny updates.
