Apex eDPI Formula:
From: | To: |
eDPI (effective Dots Per Inch) is a standardized way to compare mouse sensitivity across different setups. It combines your mouse DPI with your in-game sensitivity to give a single number that represents your true sensitivity.
The calculator uses the eDPI formula:
Where:
Explanation: Multiplying these two values gives your effective sensitivity that can be compared across different setups.
Details: Knowing your eDPI helps maintain consistent aim when changing hardware or settings, and allows you to compare sensitivities with other players.
Tips: Enter your mouse DPI (typically 400-3200 for gaming mice) and your Apex Legends sensitivity setting (default is 5.0). Both values must be positive numbers.
Q1: What's a good eDPI for Apex Legends?
A: Most professional players use eDPI between 800-1600, but personal preference is most important.
Q2: How do I find my mouse DPI?
A: Check your mouse software or manufacturer specifications. Many gaming mice have DPI indicators or buttons.
Q3: Does higher eDPI mean faster aim?
A: Yes, higher eDPI means your cursor/crosshair moves faster relative to your mouse movement.
Q4: Should I change my eDPI?
A: Only if you're uncomfortable with your current sensitivity. Consistency is more important than the exact number.
Q5: Does this work for other games?
A: The concept works for all FPS games, but the exact eDPI values aren't directly comparable between games due to different sensitivity scaling.
