Is there any difference between 1000 DPI and 2000 DPI?

The DPI of a mouse is how far the mouse cursor will move on screen per inch of travel on the mousepad.

so a 2000dpi mouse cursor will travel twice as far as a 1000dpi mouse cursor for the same physical mouse movement.

High dpi mice are a must have when using larger/higher resolution screens other wise you would be moving your mouse all over your desk *Smile

 

Mouse DPI

Hello Ray,

DPI is the standard used to measure the mouse sensitivity, expressed as the number of DPIs (dots per linear inch) that a device can detect. By changing the DPI, you can instantly adjust pointer speed for precision tasks,
such as in-game targeting or photo editing. The greater the number of DPIs, the higher the mouse sensitivity, and the faster the pointer speed.
PS/2 is a type of port used by older computers for connecting input devices such as keyboards and mice, which had six pins with a circular shape.

Some mouse models include dedicated buttons (DPI On-the-fly buttons) you can use to instantly adjust your mouse sensitivity (DPI).

Thank you.

 

Which DPI do you use for your gaming mouse?

1400 - 1200 - 1000

In the middle 1200 on desktop and most games. If i need a bit faster or slower those values are there for that. Might though change the faster one higher once my BC2 arrives.

'Just' 3 settings so that I know without looking where it's at and can get with one press to what I want.

btw. had a 1000dpi static dpi laser mouse before. Have upped the DPI in 50 steps. Started in 1100dpi with this mouse (G5).
