400 indeed 1600 > mouse it reacting slower then on 400
i got 2000 and iam doing fine
the one you feel more comfortable with
i use 400 :) its the best imo
23.23.23
some other thing , if u desactivate the option game detection in ur mx518 drivers ur mouse wont work at best ?does it still can change ur dpi ? or it just go as a regular mouse who does nothing great?
Whats dpi?
"its all in your head"
in windows 13 in et 37 and dpi 1337.
mx518:
1600 for high senser
800 for low/mid sens
400 for extreme low sens
i use 1600 dpi with low-mid sens, is that good?
Parent
well it will still have high-sens feeling.... on 800dpi you will probably track better.
Parent
What would you class as extreem low sense? Im using 2.55 at the moment.

1600 dpi means that youd get a response when moving your mouse 0.016mm
Now lets say you play with 120 fov and 800x600 resolution,
that makes a 360-turn 2400 pixels, which again (in theory)means perfect performance with a sense that let you move 360° at 3,8cm.
If you play with these specs and use atleast 15cm to do a 360-turn on your mousepad, I'd go for 400.

Using higher dpi than needed may result in negative accel and shit. Atleast i experienced trouble when having my mx518 at 1600 dpi (I use about 40cm for a 360, lowmid sense)

With high resolution, small fov and high sense you should considder using higher than 400 dpi, since the mouse might "jump pixels".

You also spoke about gamedetection, just try it out, it's the best way of finding out! :O)
