When milliseconds decide wins, your settings matter more than ever.

You can have the most expensive gaming mouse in the lobby, but if your DPI, sensitivity, and polling rate aren’t dialed in, you’re playing at a disadvantage.

Here’s how to optimize your settings for competitive advantage, and why the Yeyian Shift 3-in-1 Wireless RGB Mouse is built for peak performance with peak option settings. 

DPI, Sensitivity, and Polling Rate—Explained

Let’s break down the 3 settings that matter most:

DPI (Dots Per Inch): Controls how far your cursor moves on screen per inch of physical movement.

●  Higher DPI = faster movement

●  Lower DPI = more control

●  Most pros play between 400–1600 DPI

In-Game Sensitivity: Your game’s interpretation of DPI. Lower in-game sensitivity paired with medium DPI usually gives the best aim control.

Polling Rate (Hz): How often does your mouse report to your PC?

●  1000Hz = every 1ms, giving smoother, faster response

●  Ideal for competitive and esports gaming

Recommended Settings by Game Type

FPS (Valorant, CS2, Apex Legends)

●  DPI: 400–800

●  Polling Rate: 1000Hz

●  Why: Slower = more control over crosshair; speed comes from flick training, not DPI.

MOBA (League of Legends, DOTA 2)

●  DPI: 1600–2400

●  Polling Rate: 500–1000Hz

●  Why: Faster cursor movement helps map navigation and fast spellcasting.

MMO (WoW, Final Fantasy XIV)

●  DPI: 1200–2000

●  Polling Rate: 500Hz+

●  Why: Comfort and quick reaction to AoE/macro commands without needing high accuracy.
