- Select your mouse acceleration setting
- Choose your screen resolution
- Click "Calculate" to get your perfect CS2 settings
Understanding CS2 Sensitivity
Counter-Strike 2 uses similar sensitivity calculations to CS:GO, but subtle differences in mouse input handling may affect your aim. This calculator helps you maintain consistent muscle memory when transitioning from CS:GO to CS2.
Popular Pro Player Settings
- s1mple: 3.09 @ 400 DPI (eDPI: 1236)
- ZywOo: 2.0 @ 400 DPI (eDPI: 800)
- NiKo: 1.42 @ 400 DPI (eDPI: 568)
- device: 1.8 @ 400 DPI (eDPI: 720)
How to Find Your Perfect CS2 Sensitivity
Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity directly impacts your spray control, AWP flicks, and tap-fire accuracy. Unlike CS:GO, CS2's updated Subtick system makes sensitivity feel slightly different even with identical numerical values. Start by converting your CS:GO settings using our calculator, then fine-tune in workshop maps.
The ideal CS2 sensitivity allows comfortable 180° turns with a single swipe (for checking flanks) while maintaining pixel-perfect precision for long A site to pit headshots on Dust2. Most professional players use 400-800 DPI with 1.5-2.5 in-game sensitivity, resulting in 600-2000 eDPI range.
To test your converted sensitivity: Open an offline match on Aim Botz workshop map, practice tracking bot heads while strafing, spray the AK-47 pattern on a wall from 10 meters, and attempt quick 90° flicks to targets. If you overshoot consistently, lower sensitivity by 10%. If turns feel sluggish, increase by 10%.
CS2 vs CS:GO Sensitivity Differences
While CS2 maintains the same sensitivity formula as CS:GO, the new Subtick system affects how mouse movements register. Subtick eliminates 64-tick limitations by sampling input between ticks, making micro-adjustments more responsive. Many players report CS2 feeling "faster" at identical settings due to reduced input latency.
Updated graphics and FOV model changes also impact perceived sensitivity. The CS2 viewmodel sits slightly differently, affecting visual feedback during mouse movement. Arms and weapon animations are smoother, which can create illusion of faster or slower turning depending on your visual processing.
Recommendation: Copy your CS:GO settings exactly to CS2, play 20-30 competitive matches, then adjust if needed. Most players (about 70%) keep identical settings, while 30% reduce CS2 sens by 5-10% due to Subtick responsiveness. Never change sensitivity based on single bad matches—only adjust after consistent pattern emerges.

FAQ
Should I use raw input in CS2?
Yes, always enable Raw Input (m_rawinput 1). This bypasses Windows mouse settings, ensuring consistent 1:1 tracking. It eliminates acceleration, angle snapping, and other mouse processing that ruins precision.
What zoom sensitivity should I use for AWP?
Default zoom_sensitivity_ratio_mouse 1.0 works for most players. This keeps scoped sens proportional to hipfire. Some AWPers prefer 0.818933 (matches CS:GO's old default) for slightly slower scoped movement. Test both in Aim Botz AWP training.
How do I calculate eDPI?
eDPI = DPI × in-game sensitivity. Example: 800 DPI × 1.5 sens = 1200 eDPI. This standardized metric lets you compare settings across different mice and games. Same eDPI = same mouse movement distance for 360° turn.
