Introduction

This mouse sensitivity converter keeps your aim the same in every game you play. Pick the game you came from, type in your sensitivity and DPI, then pick the game you want to play. You get the new number to type into your settings.

It works with over 120 games, like Counter-Strike 2, Valorant, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty, and Rainbow Six Siege. Each game moves your view at its own speed, so the same setting can feel fast in one game and slow in another. This tool fixes that so your muscle memory still works.

You also get your cm/360°, in/360°, and eDPI, plus a full step-by-step breakdown of the math. If you want to match your ADS or scope aim, you can choose how to match it, like 360° Distance, Monitor Distance, or Viewspeed. Change your FOV, screen size, or resolution and the numbers update right away.

How to use our Mouse Sensitivity Converter

Pick the game you play now, type in your sensitivity and mouse DPI, then pick the game you want to switch to. The calculator gives you the matching sensitivity for the new game, plus your cm/360°, in/360°, counts per 360°, eDPI, and a step-by-step breakdown.

View Mode: Choose Simple for the basics, Default for more fields, or Advanced to see every setting.

Measurement Units: Pick centimeters, inches, or mouse counts for all distance numbers.

Conversion Source Mode: Choose Sensitivity to start from your in-game number, or Distance to start from your cm/360°.

Distance per 360°: In Distance mode, type how far you move your mouse to spin a full circle. The tool works out both sensitivities for you.

Sort Game List By: Sort the game list by name or by game engine.

Auto FOV Conversion: Turn this on if you want the tool to use your own FOV for the new game instead of the game default.

Target FOV (Auto FOV): Type the FOV number you use in the new game.

Target FOV Type (Auto FOV): Pick how that FOV is measured, like Hdeg 16:9 or Vdeg.

Y-Sensitivity: Choose 1:1 to match your side-to-side speed, Scale to set a percent, or Custom to enter your own Y value.

Y-Sensitivity Scale (%): If you picked Scale, type the percent of your X sensitivity to use for up and down aim.

Custom Source Y Sensitivity: If you picked Custom, type the Y sensitivity from your current game.

Game (Convert From and Convert To): Click the box, then search or tap a popular title to pick each game.

Aim Type: Choose Hipfire, ADS, or Scope, so the tool converts the right aim mode.

Input Format: Pick Raw if you type the number the game shows, Percent if the game uses 0 to 100, or ×10 if the game uses a ten-times scale.

Sensitivity 1: Type your main in-game sensitivity for the game you are converting from.

Sensitivity 2: Type the second slider if the game has one, like an ADS or scope multiplier.

Multiplier 1 and Multiplier 2: Type any extra in-game multiplier, such as the Rainbow Six mouse multiplier.

Mouse DPI: Type the DPI your mouse is set to in each game. Most players use 400, 800, or 1600.

Windows Pointer Speed: Pick your Windows slider step. Leave it at 6/11 unless you changed it.

Resolution Width and Height: Type the screen size you play at, like 1920 by 1080.

Aspect Ratio: Pick Native, or choose a stretched or black bars option if you play stretched.

Monitor Size and Unit: Type your screen size across the corners and pick inches or cm. This is used for monitor distance matching.

FOV Value and FOV Type: Type the FOV you use in each game and pick how that game measures it.

Special Options and Location: These show the extra settings a game has, like vehicle aim or zoom sensitivity type.

Swap button: Click the arrows in the middle to flip your two games and their settings.

Match Mode (Hipfire, ADS, Scope, Windows/2D): Pick how you want the feel matched. 360° Distance keeps the same spin distance. Monitor Distance keeps the same on-screen aim.

Ratio / Distance (%): Type how much of the half-screen to match. 75% is a common choice.

Scale (%): Type a percent to make the result faster or slower. Leave it at 100 for a straight match.

Y Match Mode and Y Scale (%): Set how up and down aim is matched, and the percent to use.

Calculate and Reset: Click Calculate to see your result, or Reset to go back to the start values.

Your current target-game sensitivity: In the reverse tool, type the sensitivity you already use in the new game.

Which sensitivity is this: Pick Hipfire, ADS, or Scope, then click Rank Methods to see which match method fits your setup best.

Mouse Sensitivity Converter: What It Does

Every FPS game uses its own sensitivity scale. A setting of 1.5 in Counter-Strike 2 does not move your view the same amount as 1.5 in Valorant or Apex Legends. A sensitivity converter fixes that. It takes your aim from one game and finds the matching number in another game, so your muscle memory still works when you switch titles.

How Sensitivity Really Works

Your mouse sends "counts" to your PC. DPI decides how many counts you get per inch of mouse movement. The game then turns each count into a small turn, measured in degrees. Every game has a hidden number called yaw that sets how many degrees one count turns you. Source games (like CS2) use 0.022 degrees per count at sensitivity 1. Valorant uses 0.07. That is why the numbers look so different between games.

Key Terms

  • cm/360° is how far you slide your mouse to spin a full circle. This is the truest way to compare aim between players and games.
  • DPI is mouse dots per inch. Higher DPI means the same hand movement sends more counts.
  • eDPI is DPI × in-game sensitivity. It is a quick way to compare two players who use different DPI settings.
  • FOV is field of view, or how wide you see. A wider FOV makes targets look smaller and shrinks how far they move on screen.

Why Match Methods Matter

If both games had the same FOV, you would just match cm/360° and be done. But games use different FOV values, so a perfect match is not possible. You pick which part of the screen you want to feel the same:

  • 360° Distance keeps the same full spin distance in both games. Best for hipfire, tracking, and flick shots that leave the screen. This is the most popular choice.
  • Monitor Distance (MDH / MDV) matches how far a target moves across a set part of your screen, like 75%. Best for ADS and scoped aim where FOV changes a lot.
  • Viewspeed is a blend that trades a little accuracy on both ends to feel smooth overall.
  • Jedi's Trick is monitor matching locked at about 70.7% of the screen, a common middle-ground setting.

Hipfire, ADS, and Scope

Most shooters use three aim states, and each one can need its own conversion. Hipfire uses your base sensitivity. ADS and scope zoom in, which narrows your FOV. Many games use a separate ADS multiplier for this. Converting each state on its own keeps your aim steady whether you are spraying, aiming down sights, or sniping.

Tips for Better Results

  • Use the same DPI in both games when you can. It removes one more thing that can go wrong.
  • Set your real resolution and FOV. Wrong FOV values give wrong answers on every method except 360° distance.
  • Keep Windows pointer speed at 6/11 (the middle notch). Any other setting adds scaling that hurts precision.
  • Turn off mouse acceleration in Windows and in game. Conversions assume a steady, one-to-one input.
  • Most pro FPS players sit between 25 and 50 cm per 360°. Lower means more control, higher means faster turns.

Once you have your new number, spend a few minutes in a range or aim trainer. The math gets you very close, but small comfort tweaks are normal.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good cm/360 for FPS games?

Most pro players use 25 to 50 cm per 360°. Around 30 to 40 cm is a safe middle ground for new players.

  • Under 25 cm: fast turns, harder to aim small
  • 25 to 50 cm: good mix of speed and control
  • Over 50 cm: very steady aim, but you need a big mousepad

Try 35 cm first, then adjust by small steps until flicks land without over-shooting.

How do I convert CS2 sensitivity to Valorant?

Divide your CS2 sensitivity by 3.18. That is the ratio between the two yaw values (0.07 ÷ 0.022).

Example: CS2 sens 1.5 ÷ 3.18 = 0.472 in Valorant.

This only works if your DPI is the same in both games. If your DPI is different, multiply by your old DPI and divide by your new DPI.

What is yaw in mouse sensitivity?

Yaw is how many degrees your view turns for one mouse count at sensitivity 1. It is set by the game, not by you.

  • Source games (CS2, Apex, TF2): 0.022
  • Valorant: 0.07
  • Overwatch 2 and Call of Duty: 0.0066
  • Fortnite: 0.5555

Yaw is why the same number feels totally different from game to game.

Does DPI or in-game sensitivity matter more?

Neither. What matters is the two multiplied together, called eDPI. DPI 800 at sens 1 feels the same as DPI 400 at sens 2.

Small differences do exist: very low DPI (under 400) can cause jitter, and very high DPI (over 3200) can pick up hand shake. Most players stay at 800 or 1600 and change the in-game number.

Should I use 360 distance or monitor distance matching?

Use 360° Distance for hipfire. It keeps your full spin the same, so your turns and wide flicks stay familiar.

Use Monitor Distance for ADS and scopes. When you zoom in, FOV changes a lot, and monitor matching keeps targets moving the same amount on screen.

Monitor Distance Vertical at 0% is the same as coefficient matching, and 75% is the most common setting.

Why does my sensitivity feel different after changing FOV?

Because FOV changes how far a target moves on your screen, not how fast your view turns.

A wider FOV squeezes more world into the same screen, so targets look smaller and move less in pixels. Your cm/360° stays the same, but your aim feels slower and less precise.

If you change FOV and want the same on-screen feel, redo your conversion with monitor distance matching.

What is eDPI and how do I calculate it?

eDPI means effective DPI. The formula is:

eDPI = mouse DPI × in-game sensitivity

Example: 800 DPI × 0.45 sens = 360 eDPI.

It lets you compare two players fairly, even if they use different DPI. But eDPI only works inside one game, since each game has its own yaw.

Should Windows pointer speed be 6/11?

Yes. 6/11 is the middle notch and it is the only setting with a 1.0 multiplier, meaning no counts are added or dropped.

Lower notches multiply your input by fractions like 0.5 or 0.25, which throws away mouse counts and makes fine aim skip. Higher notches double up counts, which adds jitter.

Also uncheck Enhance Pointer Precision. That is mouse acceleration.

How do I convert ADS sensitivity between games?

Convert the ADS state on its own, not just hipfire. Steps:

  1. Find your ADS FOV in both games (zoom narrows it)
  2. Enter your ADS multiplier from each game
  3. Use Monitor Distance Vertical at 75% instead of 360° distance

Games handle ADS in different ways. Some use one multiplier for all scopes, others use per-optic values. Match each scope level separately if the game allows it.

Why can't sensitivity be matched perfectly between two games?

Because the games use different FOV values. When FOV differs, no single number can keep both your full 360° spin and your on-screen target movement the same.

You have to pick which one matters more:

  • Same spin distance = 360° matching
  • Same on-screen movement = monitor distance matching

If both games use the exact same FOV, the methods all give the same answer and the match is perfect.

What is Viewspeed sensitivity matching?

Viewspeed is a blend method. It mixes the FOV ratio with the tangent ratio, so it lands between 360° matching and monitor distance matching.

It is a good pick when you switch between games with a moderate FOV gap and you do not want either extreme. Viewspeed Vertical is the more common of the two.

Does mouse acceleration break sensitivity conversion?

Yes. Conversions assume every mouse count turns you the same amount. Acceleration changes the turn based on how fast you move, so your cm/360° is no longer a fixed number.

Turn off Enhance Pointer Precision in Windows and any in-game acceleration setting before you convert.

What sensitivity do pro CS2 players use?

Most CS2 pros run 400 or 800 DPI with an in-game sens between 0.7 and 2.5, giving roughly 700 to 1000 eDPI.

In cm/360° terms that is about 30 to 50 cm. Low sens helps with the game's spray control and long-range rifle duels.

How does stretched resolution affect sensitivity?

Stretched 4:3 changes your horizontal FOV, which changes how far targets move on screen. Your cm/360° does not change at all.

If you match by 360° distance, nothing needs to change. If you match by monitor distance, set the right aspect ratio, because stretched and black bars give different results.

Why is Fortnite sensitivity such a small decimal?

Fortnite has a very high yaw of 0.5555 degrees per count. That means a tiny sensitivity number still turns you a lot.

Fortnite also shows sensitivity as a percent (0 to 100) in the basic menu. Turn on Advanced Options to see the raw decimal value, which is what converters use.

Does refresh rate or FPS change my sensitivity?

No. Your cm/360° stays the same at 60 FPS or 360 FPS. Yaw and DPI are the only things that set your turn speed.

Higher frame rates feel smoother and cut input lag, so aim feels more responsive. But the actual math does not change.

How do I find my current cm/360?

Use this formula:

cm/360° = (360 ÷ (yaw × sens)) ÷ DPI × 2.54

Example, CS2 at 800 DPI and 1.5 sens:
360 ÷ (0.022 × 1.5) = 10,909 counts
10,909 ÷ 800 × 2.54 = 34.6 cm

You can also test it: mark a spot on your pad, spin exactly 360° in game, and measure the slide.

Is low or high sensitivity better for aiming?

Low sensitivity (40 cm+) gives more precise micro-aim and steadier tracking, but you need arm movement and a big pad.

High sensitivity (under 25 cm) lets you turn fast and check corners quickly, but small hand shakes hurt your aim more.

Most players do best around 30 to 40 cm. Pick one and stick with it for a few weeks before you judge.

Do I need to change sensitivity when I get a new mousepad?

Not the setting, but maybe the number. A bigger pad lets you go lower sens without running out of room. A smaller pad may force you higher.

Pad speed also matters. A slower control pad feels heavier at the same cm/360°, so some players raise sens slightly when they switch.

What does 0% monitor distance matching mean?

0% monitor distance is the same as coefficient matching. It matches how targets move right at the exact center of your crosshair.

It gives the best feel for tiny micro-corrections but drifts off at the screen edges. 75% is the popular pick because it balances the center and the edges.
