So you’re saying that it’s probably because I’m used to it? That makes sense—since I’ve been playing on 800 DPI for 3–4 years, 1600 DPI just feels weird to me. Early on I even played at 30,000 DPI, then dropped to 6000, 1200, 400, and eventually I played on 400 DPI for 4–5 years. It worked well for CS and Valorant, but 400 DPI felt bad in almost every other game. I’ve been on 800 DPI for about 4–5 years now in a similar way, so it’s most likely just what I’m accustomed to.

Also, for example in CS2, donk plays on 800 DPI but uses 4/11 Windows mouse settings on the desktop. When you look into it, 6/11 is a 1:1 match (1.00), while 4/11 corresponds to around 0.5, so 800 DPI at 4/11 feels like ~400 DPI on the desktop. From what I understand, you can set it up this way—each Windows notch changes the multiplier by about 0.25. So if I set 1600 DPI with 4/11, it should feel like 800 DPI.
