Answer #1

dpi means dot per inch, the higher the dpi of a mouse the better.. you can change the sensitivity of your mouse in START>CONTROL PANEL>MOUSE>select the POINTER OPTIONS TAB, then adjust the speed… this is good when you have lower dpi mouse like 500dpi.

Answer #2

cant you just change that in mouse sensitivity?

what I am looking for is a mouse that can change sensitivity with some slider on the side, so I can do that depending on the situation in a video game. know of one?

Answer #3

yeah but I want a mouse where I can change the sensitivity on the mouse with some wheel or something so even when im in a game and I need to be really twitchy or really slow I can be that

Answer #4

the higher the dpi, the quicker it will move across the screen with less movement of your hand
