Valorant eDPI Calculator
Calculate your effective DPI from your mouse DPI and Valorant in-game sensitivity. eDPI is the true measure of your sensitivity across any hardware setup.

Enter your mouse DPI and in-game sensitivity to calculate your eDPI.
What is eDPI?
eDPI stands for effective DPI. It combines your mouse hardware DPI with your in-game sensitivity into a single number that represents how far your crosshair moves per inch of mouse movement.
The formula is straightforward:
For example, if you play on 800 DPI with a 0.35 sensitivity, your eDPI is 280(800 × 0.35 = 280). A player on 400 DPI with 0.70 sensitivity also has an eDPI of 280 and will feel the same in-game.
Example
Scenario: You play at 800 DPI and your Valorant sensitivity is 0.35.
eDPI = 800 × 0.35 = 280
Most Valorant professionals play between 200 and 400 eDPI. An eDPI of 280 sits comfortably in the low-to-mid range, suited to players who prioritise accuracy over fast flicks.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why does eDPI matter more than raw DPI?
- Raw DPI only tells you about your mouse hardware. In-game sensitivity scales that value further. eDPI combines both, so you can compare your setup with other players regardless of what mouse they use.
- What eDPI do Valorant pros use?
- Most professional Valorant players sit between 200 and 400 eDPI, with 280 being a common reference point. Lower values improve precision; higher values help with fast flicks and close-range play.
- How do I change my DPI?
- DPI is set in your mouse software (e.g. Logitech G Hub, Razer Synapse, SteelSeries GG). Your current DPI profile is usually shown in the software dashboard.
- Does this calculator work for other games?
- Yes. The eDPI formula (DPI × sensitivity) is universal. However, each game scales sensitivity differently, so eDPI values are only directly comparable within the same game.
