How do I use the DPI Analyzer?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

I've been trying to figure out what my actual DPI is but I'm not sure if what I'm doing is right based on my results. I did three tests with the same mouse. "Enhance Pointer Precision" is off and I measured the distance the mouse traveled in real life using a tape measure.
For 1000 DPI and 1600 DPI I Chose
Target Distance: 1   Units: Inches    Axis: X+  WPS : 6 
For 2000 DPI I chose:
Target Distance: 0.5   Units: Inches    Axis: X+  WPS : 6

RESULTS:
For 1000 DPI it showed an actual DPI of ~550
For 1600 DPI it showed an actual DPI of ~900
FOr 2000 DPI it showed an actual DPI of ~1380

I'm using the "James Donkey 112 Gaming Mouse" which reports to have 3 DPI settings (1000,1600, and 2000). Could it be that this is simply a cheap mouse and the actual DPI shown in the DPI Analyzer are correct?

Thanks in advance!

Make sure you have browser scale at 100%, also I would suggest to use more then 1 inch for target distance (atleast 5-6) since its too short distance and as a result more deviations and inacuracy from human factor. If it says target distance is out of range use lower WPS

Yeah, try to use as much inches from the left side to the right side as possible, without hitting the right border of your Screen.

And try to move the mouse with consistent speed, since this cheap laser mice often have extremely negative or positive acceleration
