Best eDPI Settings by Game: Valorant, CS2, Apex & More (2026)
Here's what confuses everyone: eDPI numbers are not comparable across games. 800 eDPI in Valorant and 800 eDPI in CS2 feel completely different, because each game's sensitivity scale is different. That's why you need per-game ranges — and this is the table.
Pro eDPI ranges by game
Typical ranges where most professionals cluster (eDPI = DPI × in-game sensitivity):
| Game | Typical pro eDPI | Average | Aim style |
|---|---|---|---|
| Valorant | 200 – 400 | ~320 | Slow, precise — headshot or nothing |
| CS2 | 500 – 900 | ~800 | Balanced — flicks plus control |
| Rainbow Six Siege | 400 – 800 | ~600 | Controlled — tight angles |
| Overwatch 2 | 700 – 1,100 | ~900 | Fast hybrid — wide tracking |
| PUBG | 600 – 1,000 | ~800 | Medium — recoil control matters |
| Warzone / CoD | 800 – 1,400 | ~1,000 | Reactive — fast target switching |
| Apex Legends | 900 – 1,300 | ~1,100 | Fast tracking — constant movement |
| Fortnite | 1,000 – 1,600 | ~1,300 | Very fast — building and edits |

How to use this table
- Start in the middle of your game's range — not at a pro's exact number.
- Play for a full week. Deathmatch, ranked, everything. No mid-week changes.
- Diagnose: overshooting flicks? Drop ~10%. Running out of mousepad on 180° turns? Raise ~10%.
- Lock it in. When you stop thinking about your sensitivity, you've found it.
Why ranges differ so much
It comes down to what each game demands. Tactical shooters (Valorant, CS2) reward pixel-perfect first shots at long angles — slow wins. Movement shooters (Apex, Fortnite) demand constant 180° turns while sliding and building — speed wins. Neither is "better"; each is adapted to its game's time-to-kill, movement, and engagement distances. Copying a Valorant pro's eDPI into Apex will feel like dragging your mouse through mud.
Converting sens between games
Switching mains? Don't guess — convert properly so your muscle memory transfers. Use our sensitivity converter, or follow the worked example in our Valorant to CS2 conversion guide. Also read low vs high sensitivity if you're torn between styles.

Can I use the same eDPI in every game?
The number won't feel the same because each game scales sensitivity differently. Instead, match your cm/360 (physical mousepad distance per 360° turn) across games using a sensitivity converter — that transfers the actual feel.
What eDPI do Valorant pros use?
Most cluster between 200 and 400 eDPI, averaging around 300. The median across a large pro sample is roughly 240 — slow by any standard, built for pixel-perfect headshots.
Should I just copy a pro player's exact settings?
Use pro ranges as a starting zone, not a destination. Pros tuned their settings over thousands of hours for their hands, mousepad space, and role. Start mid-range, then adjust to your own feel over a week or two.
Why is Fortnite eDPI so much higher than Valorant?
Fortnite demands constant fast camera movement for building, editing, and close-range tracking, while Valorant rewards holding still and micro-adjusting onto heads. Different games, different physics of aiming.
