🎯 eDPI Calculator

Enter your mouse DPI and in-game sensitivity to get your eDPI, the number that lets you compare settings with any other player.

How the edpi calculator works

eDPI, effective DPI, is simply your mouse DPI multiplied by your in-game sensitivity. Because two players can reach the same real sensitivity with different DPI-and-sens combinations (800 DPI at 2.0 equals 1600 DPI at 1.0), the raw sens number alone is meaningless for comparison. eDPI multiplies them into one figure you can compare directly against pros or teammates in the same game. It computes instantly in your browser.

eDPI is only comparable within the same game, because each game scales its sensitivity differently. To compare across games, use cm/360 or the mouse sensitivity converter instead. Lower eDPI means slower, more precise aim; most competitive FPS players sit in a surprisingly low range.

Frequently asked questions

What is eDPI?

eDPI (effective DPI) is mouse DPI × in-game sensitivity. It collapses two separate settings into one number so you can compare your true sensitivity with other players in the same game, regardless of which DPI they use.

How do I calculate eDPI?

Multiply your mouse DPI by your in-game sensitivity. For example, 800 DPI × 1.6 sens = 1,280 eDPI. This tool does it instantly.

What is a good eDPI?

It depends on the game, but competitive FPS players typically use lower eDPI for precision. Compare yours against pros in the same title rather than chasing a universal number; consistency matters more than any specific value.

Can I compare eDPI across different games?

No. Each game scales sensitivity differently, so eDPI is only meaningful within one game. To match your aim across games, use cm/360 or a sensitivity converter.

Is my data uploaded?

No. The calculation runs in your browser.
