eDPI (effective DPI) is the single number that represents your true mouse sensitivity. It combines your mouse DPI and in-game sensitivity into one value.

The Formula

eDPI = Mouse DPI × In-Game Sensitivity

Why It Matters

Two players with different DPI settings can have the same eDPI and identical aim feel. This makes it easy to compare settings with professional players.

Example

  • Player A: 400 DPI × 0.5 sens = 200 eDPI
  • Player B: 800 DPI × 0.25 sens = 200 eDPI

Both players have identical sensitivity despite different settings.
