Start by setting your mouse DPI (normally between 400-800 for most players) and then adjust the in-game sensitivity from there. A common starting point in CS:GO is 2.0 sensitivity with 400 DPI. From there, tweak it by playing deathmatch or aim maps. The goal is to find a setting where you can comfortably make 180-degree turns while maintaining accuracy.

Another method is the 'PSA Method'. Set a sensitivity you feel okay with, then hop into a practice map. Aim at a specific point and strafe left and right while keeping your aim on that point. If you overshoot, lower your sensitivity. If you undershoot, increase it. Keep adjusting until your aim stays on point while you move.

Hot tip: Ignore the pros' settings. Just because a pro uses a super low or high sensitivity doesn’t mean it’s right for you. Comfort is key, and that varies person to person. Find what works for YOU.

Honestly, it's all about muscle memory. I spent weeks tweaking my settings, but once I found 'the one', my gameplay improved tons. Stick with a setting for a bit before changing. Your hand and brain need time to adjust.
