CS2 DPI changes: keep sensitivity consistent with eDPI
Calculate a same-game sensitivity after changing mouse DPI, understand the eDPI formula and open Dafpuno’s sensitivity converter.

Changing mouse DPI while leaving in-game sensitivity unchanged changes the relationship between physical mouse movement and the game input scale. For a same-game comparison, eDPI is the product of mouse DPI and the in-game sensitivity value. For example, 400 DPI multiplied by sensitivity 2 gives 800 eDPI.
To preserve that product after a DPI change, divide the old product by the new DPI. Moving from 400 DPI at sensitivity 2 to 800 DPI gives sensitivity 1. This is arithmetic for the same game and input settings, not a universal conversion between different games.
Try your own values
Enter your old DPI, old sensitivity and new DPI in the calculator below. The result stays in your browser; this calculator does not send the values to an analytics collector or save a visitor identifier. Positive values are required, and rounding is displayed rather than presented as unlimited precision.
Keep a note of your original setup. After applying a calculated value, compare the result under the same input and display conditions. Changing acceleration, zoom settings, sensitivity multipliers or other input behaviour can affect the comparison independently of this simple product.
Keep the same-game eDPI
New sensitivity: 1 · eDPI: 800
Same game and unchanged input settings only. Values stay on this page; no browser storage or analytics request.
Why equal eDPI is not a cross-game promise
Different games can use different sensitivity scales. A number from one game should not be treated as directly interchangeable with the same number in another. Field of view and aiming context also affect how a result feels, so do not read the same-game calculator as a guarantee of equivalent screen movement everywhere.
Dafpuno’s public converter offers game selection and displays related sensitivity values alongside DPI information. Open the actual converter when you want to explore those options. We have not independently calibrated its cross-game output against every game version, input device or zoom setting.
Make one change you can evaluate
If you are only changing DPI, calculate that change first and leave unrelated settings alone. If you are also moving to another game, test the converter’s output in that game before treating it as a final setup. Preserve an original profile so an unsuccessful experiment is easy to reverse.
The destination tool runs on Dafpuno’s infrastructure. This guide and its same-game calculator are published by Rookglint as a disclosed promotion pilot. No aiming improvement, rank increase or particular result is promised. A tool can make a comparison easier; your own testing decides whether a setting suits you.
