At BLIX, we know that precision is everything in competitive FPS games. We’ve made “Master Your Aim: Valorant Console Guide” and “Best CS AIM Training Map” articles – we know the trade from both sides. So, now whether you’re clutching a round in Valorant or lining up a perfect headshot in CS2, your sensitivity settings can make or break your performance. But switching between these two games isn’t always smooth—different mechanics, field of view (FOV), and aiming styles can throw off your muscle memory.

Basically, there are three methods to calculate the sensitivity value. You can go with a quick formula, an automated online tool, or a detailed eDPI comparison, and in all those cases, we’ve got you covered. But first, we’ll walk you through the fastest ways to tweak your settings using CS2’s in-game menu and console commands.

And because we know the small details matter, we’re also tackling zoom sensitivity adjustments, pro player settings, and common FAQs to ensure your aim feels just right. So whether you’re grinding ranked or just warming up, let’s make sure your CS2 sensitivity is dialed in for maximum accuracy.

Let’s get started!

Quick Guide: How to Change Your Sensitivity in CS2

1. Changing ensitivity via Settings Menu

Type “mouse” in the search bar => “Mouse Settings” option.

Press “Additional mouse options”

Uncheck the “Enhance pointer precision”

Open CS2 and go to Settings (gear icon).

Navigate to the Keyboard/Mouse tab.

Find Mouse Sensitivity under the Mouse section.

Enter your desired sensitivity value.

Sensitivity Adjustment Methods

Useful Tips

• Always test your new sensitivity in a practice mode or Aim Trainer before playing ranked.
• Fine-tune your settings based on how they feel in-game—no conversion is perfect!
• If your aim feels too fast or slow, adjust in small increments (e.g., 0.05 changes in CS2)

Method 1: Changing Sensitivity via Console Commands

1. Use this formula to match your Valorant Sensitivity:
   Valorant Sensitivity × 3.18 = CS2 Sensitivity
   Example: If your Valorant sensitivity is 0.5, then:
   0.5 × 3.18 = 1.59 in CS2
2. Press ~ (tilde key) to open the Console and type:

sensitivity [your value]

Addition: Adjusting Zoom Sensitivity (for Snipers)

Open Settings → Keyboard/Mouse.

Find Zoom Sensitivity and tweak it to your preference
Alternatively, use this console command:

zoom_sensitivity_ratio_mouse [value]Example: zoom_sensitivity_ratio_mouse 1.2

Pro Tip: Test your new settings in Aim Training maps or Deathmatch before jumping into ranked! 

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• Fast & Simple – No need for extra tools or calculations.
• Works for Most Players – A good starting point for transitioning to CS2.
• Doesn’t Require Internet – Can be done instantly without online converters.

Cons:

• Zoom Sensitivity Not Included – Scoped sensitivity needs separate tweaking in CS2.
• Not Always Perfect – Small differences in FOV and aiming mechanics between Valorant and CS2 may make it feel slightly off.
• No DPI Adjustments – If your DPI settings change between games, this method won’t account for it.

Use This Method if you want a quick and easy conversion but don’t mind fine-tuning later.

Method 2: Online Sensitivity Converter (Most Accurate & Easy to Use)

If you want an automated and precise method, use an online sensitivity converter. These tools handle everything for you, including DPI adjustments and zoom sensitivity.

Recommended Websites:

• Gaming Smart
• Aiming.Pro
• 3D Aim Trainer

How to Use an Online Sensitivity Converter?

1. Visit a trusted sensitivity converter website.
2. Select Valorant as your Current Game.
3. Enter your Valorant Sensitivity and DPI.
4. Select CS2 as the Target Game.
5. Click Convert to get your CS2 sensitivity value.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• Provides the most accurate sensitivity conversion.
• Some tools adjust for DPI differences and zoom sensitivity.
• Extremely user-friendly—no math needed.

Cons:

• You still might need fine-tuning based on personal preference.
• Requires internet access.
• Some websites may not be 100% accurate, so use a trusted one.

Use This Method If you want a fast, automated, and precise conversion without manual calculations.

Method 3: eDPI Comparison (Best for Matching True Feel)

This method compares eDPI (Effective DPI) instead of raw sensitivity values. Since different games use different sensitivity scales, eDPI gives a more consistent result across multiple FPS games.

Formula for eDPI:

eDPI = Mouse DPI × In-Game Sensitivity

1. Find your eDPI in Valorant

If you play with 800 DPI and 0.4 sensitivity in Valorant:
800 × 0.4 = 320 eDPI

2. Use the same eDPI in CS2

To maintain 320 eDPI in CS2, divide by your CS2 DPI:
CS2 Sensitivity = 320 eDPI ÷ CS2 DPI

If you use 400 DPI in CS2:
320 ÷ 400 = 0.8 CS2 Sensitivity

If you use 1600 DPI in CS2:
320 ÷ 1600 = 0.2 CS2 Sensitivity

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• Ensures a consistent aiming feel across different games.
• More accurate than just multiplying sensitivity.
• Works for any game, not just Valorant and CS2.

Cons:

• May need fine-tuning due to FOV differences between games.
• Requires manual calculations.

Use This Method If you want absolute consistency in aim across different games.
