Calculate effective DPI for 200+ shooter game labels from mouse DPI and in-game sensitivity. Compare your own setups and calculate the sensitivity needed for a target eDPI with real arithmetic—no guessed multipliers required.
eDPI is the product of mouse DPI and in-game sensitivity.
Add your current and alternative settings to compare their eDPI side by side.

Comparison percentages describe the numeric eDPI difference from the first row only. They do not establish equivalent aiming speed across different games, since each game uses its own sensitivity scale.
Effective DPI (eDPI) combines your mouse's DPI with the sensitivity value selected in a game. It is a compact way to compare settings within the same game, where the sensitivity scale is shared.
Example: 800 DPI Ă— 0.25 sensitivity = 200 eDPI.
eDPI is a convenient within-game comparison, but it cannot reliably compare raw sensitivity numbers across different games. cm/360° measures the physical mouse distance needed for a complete turn and is generally more useful for cross-game hip-fire comparison when the game mappings are known.
The calculation is exact for the numbers you enter. It does not need a lookup database and does not invent pro-player values.
It does not infer cm/360°, ADS sensitivity, scope sensitivity, or cross-game equivalence from eDPI alone. Those require additional game-specific information.
Multiply mouse DPI by the in-game sensitivity. For example, 400 DPI Ă— 2.0 sensitivity = 800 eDPI.
Yes. Both calculations equal 800 eDPI. This gives the same eDPI number, though mouse sensor behavior and game input settings can still affect the practical feel.
Not directly. Their in-game sensitivity scales differ, so the same eDPI number does not guarantee the same turn rate or cm/360°. Use a game-aware sensitivity converter for cross-game conversions.
Divide target eDPI by your mouse DPI. For a target of 240 eDPI at 800 DPI, the matching sensitivity is 240 Ă· 800 = 0.3.
The standard eDPI calculation uses the game's base sensitivity. ADS and per-scope multipliers are separate game-specific settings and are not included automatically here.
