CS2 Sensitivity Guide 2026
In CS2, most professional players use 400 or 800 DPI combined with 1.0–2.5 in-game sensitivity for a total eDPI of 400–1200. Lower eDPI = more physical mouse movement per 360°, which generally improves long-range precision.
CS2 sensitivity recommendations
| Playstyle | eDPI range | DPI example | Sens example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Long-range / AWP | 200–600 | 400 DPI | 0.5–1.5 |
| Balanced | 600–900 | 800 DPI | 0.75–1.2 |
| Aggressive / small desk | 900–1200 | 800 DPI | 1.2–1.5 |
DPI vs in-game sensitivity — what should you change?
For CS2, it is generally recommended to set your mouse to 400 or 800 DPI and adjust in-game sensitivity. Higher DPI settings can introduce hardware interpolation on some mice. Most CS2 pros use 400 or 800 DPI regardless of sensitivity preference.
