eDPI Explained: Valorant vs CS2 Pro Settings Comparison
If you have ever checked a pro gamer’s settings, you have likely seen "eDPI" mentioned. eDPI allows direct comparison of mouse sensitivity regardless of whether a player uses 400, 800, or 1600 DPI.
Valorant Pro eDPI Standards
In Valorant, the average professional eDPI sits between 200 and 320. Players like TenZ run 240 eDPI (800 DPI x 0.3 sens), prioritizing crosshair placement and steady micro-flicks.
CS2 Pro eDPI Standards
CS2 professionals average around 800 CS2 eDPI (400 DPI x 2.0 sens). Players like s1mple run higher (~1236 eDPI) for rapid AWP flicks, while NiKo plays at ~568 eDPI for hyper-consistent rifle tracking.
400 DPI vs 800 DPI vs 1600 DPI
Modern optical sensors operate with lower input latency at 800 and 1600 DPI compared to 400 DPI. Setting your mouse to 1600 DPI and halving your in-game sens yields identical eDPI with less sensor latency.
