I'm not sure what settings to touch or not to touch or what gives the best precision.

I got set at 3000 dpi and unchecked "Use OS built in drivers for the mouse pointers speed and acceleration" and speed is set at 1.

Speed in windows is set at 6/10. This gives me good precision I guess but is there any better precision settings?

I have mine set at 2600 DPI, speed 5, 0 Acceleration and "Use OS native drivers etc" unchecked.
Edit: No there is nothing more you can really do to enhance "precision rather than up the DPI but that becomes redundant at a certain level and your speed setting is more of a factor in terms of what you notice.

2600 dpi and 5 speed? That's like lightning fast.

1200 DPI is what I use, it's more than enough.

turning off mouse acceleration enhances pointer precision greatly imo. It slows down the speed of the mouse though so not many players like it

edit : its called "enhance pointer precision"

I'm pretty sure that's it.

I've got the same settings as you except that I set my dpi at 1100.

1000 dpi with 500hz polling for me for dual monitors. I'm used to a slower cursor from when I used an ~800 dpi mouse. It helps with my accuracy a ton compared to when I used to use 1800 with my old Death Adder. My Sc2 setting is 51%.

3200 DPI, 5 speed, 0 Accel, 500 report, Native drivers unchecked, windows sensitivity at 6, sc2 at 51. Resolution is 1920x1200 on a 27" monitor for one comp and 2 22"s for another.

Used to have a 1600 DPS mouse and had to throw sensitivity up a ton to get it to where I want it. Started with 2400 on my g9x, and moved up to 3200 to get it where I like in not only SC2 but TF2.

I use 5400dpi speed 5 and not use OS drivers and no snapping 0 accel report rate 1000. I turn it down to 1800 when i play sc though 640x480 is too small for 5400 and i wouldn't use native os drivers.

Acutally i'm less likely to obtain an RSInjry I don't move my arm or my wrist and my wrist sits on a proper rest to allow blood flow only my fingers move the mouse, I also work out my hands due to an interest in close up magic and you don't usually get rsi issues with your fingers often it's bad posture that leads to rsi injuries.

sure dude, i don't care very much. it's just a known fact that too high of dpi forces your arm to tense to keep steady. 5000 for example, you know completely ridiculous but that's cool. if its your thing.
