How to use this tool
Read mouse DPI from your mouse configuration and sensitivity from the chosen game. Keep that game, input method and aiming mode fixed while comparing setups.
How the calculation works
eDPI = mouse DPI × in-game sensitivity
Example
800 DPI with a sensitivity of 0.45 produces 360 eDPI.
Read the result without overestimating it
400 DPI at 0.9 sensitivity and 800 DPI at 0.45 both yield 360 eDPI. That arithmetic does not convert between different engines, controller curves or scoped sensitivity multipliers.
Why this result matters
eDPI provides a simple comparison within games that use the same sensitivity scale. It does not automatically convert sensitivity between different game engines.
Tips for a more useful estimate
- Disable unwanted mouse acceleration.
- Compare values within the same game.
- Record scope multipliers separately.
Frequently asked questions
Does equal eDPI feel identical in every game?
No. Games use different sensitivity scales and field-of-view behavior.
Is lower eDPI better?
No. Comfort, control, desk space, and game type determine the useful range.
