Valorant eDPI Calculator — Effective DPI and cm/360
Valorant's sensitivity scale is about three times finer than CS2's, which is why the same DPI needs a completely different slider value. This calculator shows your eDPI, your cm/360, and the equivalent sensitivity in other games.
Part of the eDPI Calculator.
Quick answer: Enter DPI and Valorant sensitivity: eDPI = DPI × sensitivity, and cm/360 = 360 ÷ (sensitivity × DPI × 0.07). A common competitive range is 200–400 eDPI (for example 800 DPI × 0.35 = 280 eDPI), which works out to roughly 25–50 cm per 360°.
Typical: 0.05–2
Scoped weapons apply their own multiplier; the number here is hip-fire.
| Game | Yaw (deg/count) | Sensitivity for the same cm/360 | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Counter-Strike 2 | 0.022 | 1.2727 | high |
| Valorant | 0.07 | 0.4 | high |
| Apex Legends | 0.022 | 1.2727 | high |
| Overwatch 2 | 0.0066 | 4.2424 | high |
| Team Fortress 2 | 0.022 | 1.2727 | high |
| Quake Live | 0.022 | 1.2727 | high |
| Fortnite | 0.005555 | 5.0405 | medium |
| Rainbow Six Siege | 0.00572957795130823 | 4.8869 | medium |
| Call of Duty: Warzone | 0.0066 | 4.2424 | medium |
| Yaw constant used | 0.07 degrees per count (high confidence — documented, not estimated) |
|---|---|
| In-game control | Sensitivity (0.1–10 in game) |
| Typical range | Most Valorant players use 200–400 eDPI; 800 DPI with 0.3–0.5 sensitivity covers the majority of ranked players. |
| Caveat | Scoped weapons apply their own multiplier; the number here is hip-fire. |
How the Valorant numbers are calculated
Because Valorant's yaw is 0.07 and CS2's is 0.022, a Valorant sensitivity of 0.4 at 800 DPI feels like roughly 1.27 in CS2 — the converter below does this precisely.
Keeping the same feel when you change DPI
Your cm/360 only changes if DPI × sensitivity changes. If you raise DPI from 400 to 800, halve the in-game sensitivity and your turning distance stays identical — the calculator will show the same cm/360 for both setups, which is the quickest way to confirm you have compensated correctly.
When to use this test
- Copying a Valorant sensitivity from a video or a friend's setup into your own mouse settings
- Comparing your Valorant setup with players who report DPI only, or eDPI only
- Moving to Valorant from another shooter without losing your turn distance
- Checking whether your sensitivity sits inside the range most Valorant players use
