Mouse DPI (CPI) as Fast As Possible 

thanks! i wasn't going to stay either.

ha ha

Hahahahaha. Wow so funny.

the end was so cringy

the best part of the video. Thank you Josh!

lol

+Pan Z Old comment I know, but hot damn my man, spot on!

+Pan Z He's probably wondering why the hell he keeps losing

LMAO

OLOLOL

good for trick shot montage lololololololol XD

+Some Weeb That is about right for pro gaming ;D

+Carbon 12 pro gamers almost always use 400 cpi or 800 cpi

SpaceDorito I'm doubting this, Since i'm pretty sure they use 1080p monitors.

they use 1080p monitors but most of them on lower resolution and on 4:3 tho they use 400dpi and really big mousepads xD

He lowkey looks attractive with that

Lian Lorenzo he’s gonna make me act up

naters pataters oh shit

Well someone fucked up real bad

that's some hardcore video watching

LOL!!!!

Oh God xDDDDDD

Ha ha ha

There are no current-day sensors that go above 25,000. We are working on getting to 28,000.

What mouse????

A Redragon Mammoth. I mostly got it bc of the design, but it turned out that the sensor wasn't too bad either.

jtpetino What I understand about Polling Rate is like this... when your mouse detects movement, it sends a "count". But it doesn't go directly to the computer, instead it's put into a "buffer" on the mouse where the counts (and other actions, like clicking) are stored. They are stored here until the USB port checks the mouse, and reads all the data. How fast the USB port checks the data is the polling rate. And yes, it's the USB port checking the mouse, NOT the mouse sending data. Mouse drivers talk to the OS and ask it to poll more or less often.

lmgtfy.com/?q=Polling+Rate ... The first link explains everything perfectly.

MustSeto Actually polling means the CPU continuously asks the mouse if it's got something to say... if the mouse were to send a signal whenever necessary that would be interrupt-driven. (for example PS/2 keyboards use interrupts, USB mice and keyboards use polling)

yogalD Exactly.

. < point a // point b >. 1000hz = 1000 times the mouse checks if its moving.

CyberWolf755 hahahaha .... his dreaming that he could play that game.

It is igi 2 I think

I wonder if anyone will even read this.

We've already done this :)

Techquickie Thanks...found it...episode number 23.

Techquickie I've just noticed the guy at 2:55 is actually watching a RU-vid video instead of playing a game. Also, high "resolutation" at 2:47 :P

Get this mouse. It has a fan on it www.ttesports.com/Mouse/32/BLACK_Element_CYCLONE/productPage.htm?a=a&g=ftr#.VCcq7VWSykU :p

Wait you do long sessions of gaymen?

SimonBraat i don't care if you're a fan of it, those red LEDs will burn through my palm faster than an overclocked nvidia card through slick's gelatinous mop

So why is it named Fractal Deisgns?

Luis Reventon Have no idea. But the cases aren't Fractal's

Rambi Ninethousand Luiza Possi Scandanavia = Cold = Snow = Snowflake

SrgntBallisticGaming Is that why they're called Fractal Design? Cool.

Sure. Great... at 480 x 640 resolution. :P I'm a figure tip mouse user I like semi-high CPI.

u got it all wrong...1600cpi master race :)

eughh using 400 cpi is horrificly slow. I'm going back to 2500.

batt3ryac1d CPI really doesn't have to relate to on screen motion. Just dial it up in software (400CPI is a little to low for that tho :P)

I use a 1440 monitor... I think i'm at something like 2400 DPI usually (can't remember for sure). Personally tend to use around 1800 or so at 1080.

It can vary, but generally 400.

Or at least the equivalent of 400.

***** have you ever seen how a ball mouse works? it is actually an optical infrared censor with an infrared led on the other side of a wheel with slots cut into it, each time it sees a bar (it gets a little darker) it counts a "click". they can compound it in a similar way to modern optical mice to get multiple counts per click, but your statement really has nothing to do with the dpi of a mouse, physical damage isn't going to change what the mouse is trying to do. like with any mouse it depends on the mouse what the dpi/cpi is, there are a few ball mice way back there that got as high as a hardware simulated 600dpi, at the time they were pretty competitive with early laser and photo optical mice. with ball mice though in general you are looking at physical cpi of 200 or less with a hard coded software layer that duplexes it.

***** oh, an as for ball mice being analog..... they are no more so analog than optical mice, and by their very nature mice are analog.

Simple. Water cooling -> for when you want the best cooling with terrible noise production. (so only the really high end ones) although if you really spend a lot of money you can make em quieter again.. but not worth all the money Air cooling -> everything else.

What are you supposed to say in "as fast as possible"?... Bigger rads offer more cooling but don't fit in all cases. Higher FPI also offers better cooling within the same space but is creates more noise. Tubing sizes don't really matter so get whatever size you like the look of and pressure optimized fans are usually better on radiators.

Did this already

Watercooling is purely for looks and noise reduction unless you know for a fact your CPU/GPU can handle higher clock speeds and temps are limiting them.

***** most AIO watercooling is louder though.

Oh dear God...

i agree

I... Don't understand how there are not more comments. XD

You say that now...

wat

Thanks

We need to start making an archive for this, I still have this one: puu.sh/ba4bu/01e014df1a.gif

monicasm both his channels are great.

Same

motosheep Do you mean different broad types (e.g. laser, optical, ball, PTE) or different models? (3090, 3310, 3366, 9800, etc)

MustSeto like laser vs. optical e.g. of Q Why one needs a flat pattern and the other works on any surface?

motosheep Most modern optical AND laser sensors will work on either surface now. In fact, it seems the laser sensors currently being manufactured are more affected by the surface--they have more acceleration on cloth. Modern opticals just get a slightly higher LOD on hard surfaces. IIRC modern opticals can even track on glass now, but don't quote me on that.

B/c my optical mouse don't work on wood.It wants patterned cloth, it is quite jumpy. When on binder paper it needs to have dots to track. Gigabyte M6900 Gamer- just a shitty mouse?

motosheep I've never heard of a Gigabyte mouse. Not a good sign. It does also look like it's using an older sensor. The sensors I'm talking about are recent-ish.

I think that was intentional...

Free Logitech Hero update-16000 to 25600 DPI! Oh marketing :-) (and I just bought one simply because I like Logitech G502 and using them for years)

@@VladK-1 g102 ROCKS MAN

In 2021 the New Basilisk v3 has 26k sensor.

Do you know it?

16k ???? Horrible

what the- 16k?!?

just turn up the sensitivity in your software/windows

+watsyurdeal you'll be better off with 1000 or 1600 cpi probably. but 800 is already ok for most games.

With 400 CPI, you would move the mouse an entire foot to move it across your screen.

Sock Puppet *facepalm* we've got a dumbass...

+watsyurdeal It is completely dependent on how far you want to drag the mouse to move X degrees on screen in game, anywhere between 600 and 1200 is where most people will probably have their settings, while some people will prefer 200 and others will prefer 6000! +blitzball420 NO! That is not the same as a mouse with actual DPI settings!

TheRockstarr33 Mine goes up to 12,000. I use it on 12k literally every day. It gives me way less cramps in my wrist, but when I need really low DPI, I just use the sniper function, programmed to go down to 200. Feels like I have to drag it a damn lightyear to move a pixel.

Jordan O'C mine goes up to 180000 dpi gg

Maggetboy ok sure, haha what mouse xD

***** Yep, I like TF2 a lot. Although I recently bought Quake... it is a pretty fun game.

Please correct the number of zeroes..

That's just a different way of gripping the mouse. I do the same thing.

Same here, finger tip grip ftw

Depends on the shooter. If can do 180 with just your fingers/wrist in for example counter strike, then that's way too high.

Hey this is like super late but what DPI do you use? I also cant bring myself to move more than just my wrist and fingers cuz moving my arm too makes me innacurate

Solid Steel It only glitches when you click? Sounds like a defect. You might try googling to see if its a common issue with your mouse. If it is there might be a fix. Otherwise yes, you should probably get another one.

***** CPI isn't the only thing which controls the overall sensitivity. The game's sensitivity value also affects it. In fact, theoretically a higher CPI with lower sensitivity setting is better. But because of the way CPIs tend to be artificially inflated, just setting a mouse to its highest CPI is still a bad idea. Besides, lowering that sensitivity value gives diminishing returns, and I'm confident we're at the point where we have high enough legitimate CPI that and additional benefit will be negligible.

I'm the same. I run at 3200 on desktop but drop down to 1k in shooters

bensemus x 3200? That's still really high :P I run at around 800 in games and on the desktop.

***** Ya in shootters I need to turn down my sensitivity

Well yeah, that's not surprising. Some gaming mice even come with DPI shifts. Holding those down will lower the DPI and will make sniping in FPS games more "steady" if you need a lower sensitivity.

siegpasta It depends on the sensor. In general you probalby want to use a lower CPI anyways to avoid issues with noise/errors and such. At least for FPS games, there's probably not a point to going over 800 CPI.

The G502 actually probably is the best mouse sensor ever, but yeah at 12k it's not going to be as good as it would be on a lower setting. But if you compare it to another mouse at the same setting, the G502 will win every time. Really wish they'd use the darn sensor in another mouse shell though, the G502 is so heavy >_

***** I don't understand that picture lol, are precision and accuracy not the same thing?

It may be accurate, but imagine running that sensor over a speck which it can't fully comprehend as a surface, your cursor will fly. That's what Linus refers to, too much of one thing can lead to noise, too much detail wihout proper analysis (sensor), and much more room for reading errors, such as the example cited above.

how do u control that thing i keep mine at 1000

Mostafa morsy I simply got used to it over a few days of getting it. I kinda feel like if you bought a mouse with a really high DPI you might as well use it. I play on a 1080p monitor only too lol.

thanks for sharing that, helped bring my perspective to a new light

Javier Gonzalez Jr also if you assign your left/right click to the keyboard the mouse control will be a lot smoother, i personally do this in Zbrush and Photoshop because clicking while dragging tends to be a lot shaky.

No. Did you watch the video? He said higher DPI is *NOT* more accurate. Think of DPI as a secondary sensitivity setting. Just don't put it too high or it might cause innacuracy/inconsistency.

yes xD

The mouse is 400 DPI and I use sensitivity on 4/5 and acceleration on 1/2 depending on what weapons I play. It moves fast enough 4 me and is accurate enough

Speaking in cs:go settings

Oh yeah and cod is really hard ? Give me a break cs:go has no competition right now on the competitive side of the game, there is no match for cs:go in any way right now, no game will take it's place in esports. If the game was skill-less it would not be an esports game.

Man, there are many ways cod is way fucking easier than cs go, and overwatch has taken the fast paced title now, and I say that as a tf2 player

Your point is invalid, cod has aim-assist, grenades do instant kills, recoil is smaller, recoil while walking has no difference of while standing still, knife always instant kills, no complicated movement and mastering of the map required, you get perks, the game is way more easier and unballanced, you can literally walk around instant killing everyone, not to mention there is a killstreak award, no knownledge of weapons required. All I mentioned is opposite from cs go, which is more competitive and skill headed, whilist cod is headed towards casual scrubs that cant aim properly. A true pro fps player that comes from cs:go/ other skill demanding games will always dominate in cod.

It's over 9,000!!!!

Have you tried it on a non-reflective surface? Also, if it's an old mouse, it would probably be best if you got a new one.

somMelon yes sir I have tried and used it on a non reflective surfaces but for some reason it will work some of the time and other it won’t but thank you for replying back to me I guess I just need to try a different mouse but I really need to find out will a optical eye mouse work on a mouse pad because I was told years ago when the optical mouse first came out that they will not work on a mouse and that you would not need them anymore but they are still being sold so am I right to say that they will work on a mouse pad? Thank you

They work on a mouse pad, yes. Also, always look at the user reviews when you are buying peripherals. Can you tell me which mouse do you have and how long do you have it?

mines 19000 XD can't be precise at 5k+ and 7+ is just a uncontrollable hell XD

@@FAILoZOFF LOL mine is 32000cpi.
