What sens do you play video games at?

I'm at 8.2in/360 in Source/GoldSrc games (down from 4.1... :eek:).

It isn't very clear on what you should use for ingame sensitivity. Not all games use a universal sensitivity system. Its only games on the same engine that follow eachother. In SC2 and desktop work I have my Abyssus at 3500dpi with default windows setting (6/11) and ingame of 51% which means the mouse moves identically on my desktop and ingame. But when I play Quake or COD or any other shooter I use my Mamba at 400 dpi with the same windows settings and an ingame sensitivity of 1 (on games based on the quake engine and whatever feels as close to that as possible in other games).

I agree with Hydroid. I use different settings depending on how the game feels. Even from different COD titles my sensitivity varies, MW2 has a lower setting than i use in Black Ops yet they feel the same to me.

My sensitivity depends largely on the game. In a series like cod I use a bit of a higher sensitivity since a lot of it is just run and gun and I dont play it competitively. Any FPS that I do play competitively I use a lower sensitivity. I'm not sure the exact sensitivity (in terms of 360) but I use 1600 DPI and 0.3-0.5 sensitivity in source.

I dont use above 900 dpi on any of the games that i play. I tried higher but i cant seem to control it when i get nervous, then i shoot all over the place.

I use windows sense 2 and 3600 DPI with my Xai. Acceleration OFF.

This allows me to have nice fine movements for graphics and gaming.

I've found 5700 dpi and 1 win sense to feel pretty good for me for general surfing and desktop use, so when I game I just adjust the in-game sense to what feels good. I'm sure someone can cook up some math that says my settings aren't optimal, but it's what feels right to me and I perform well in games with it. Heck, I can put on both accel and prediction/angle snapping and perform just as well, sometimes even better.
