stavn's Exact Mouse Settings & eDPI Analysis
Multiple 2026 community sources confirm stavn's core mouse parameters:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| DPI | 400 |
| In-Game Sensitivity | 2.5 |
| eDPI | 1000 |
| Zoom Sensitivity | 1 |
| Polling Rate | 1000 Hz |

eDPI (Effective DPI) combines DPI and in-game sensitivity into one comparable number: 400 × 2.5 = 1000. At this speed, a full 360° turn takes roughly 42 cm of mouse movement—noticeably faster than the pro average.
For comparison, check settings on take.skin for donk, ZywOo, NiKo. stavn's 1000 eDPI is tuned for checking multiple angles quickly without constant mouse resets—perfect for fast-paced play.

Resolution and Video Settings: The 4:3 Stretched Advantage
stavn plays at 1280x960, 4:3 aspect ratio, black bars scaling, fullscreen. This is one of the most common pro setups: enemy player models appear wider on the horizontal axis, which many players find easier to track and crosshair-place.
Video settings prioritize visibility and frame rate over visual flair:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 1280x960 |
| Aspect Ratio | 4:3 (Black Bars) |
| Display Mode | Fullscreen |
| Boost Player Contrast | Enabled |
| Global Shadow Quality | High |
| Model / Texture Detail | Low |
| Shader Detail | Low |
| Particle Detail | Low |
| Multisampling Anti-Aliasing | 4x MSAA |
| Texture Filtering | Bilinear |
| Ambient Occlusion | Disabled |
| NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency | Enabled |
| FidelityFX Super Resolution | Disabled |
The pattern is familiar across top players: high shadows for depth perception, low effects for FPS, and MSAA to keep jagged edges clean at 4:3. stavn's ZOWIE XL2566X+ monitor is built for minimal input latency.
stavn's Crosshair Code and Viewmodel
stavn uses a Classic Static Cyan crosshair—small, clean, and completely stable during movement and spray. Import it directly in CS2:

| Gap | -4 |
| Outline | No |

Should You Copy stavn's Settings?
Most 2026 community guides agree: learn from stavn, but do not blindly copy.
1000 eDPI is faster than what most players can control comfortably. If you currently play at 600–800 eDPI, jumping straight to this sensitivity will likely hurt your aim consistency and cause wrist fatigue.
A smarter approach:
- Start lower. Try 400 DPI × 1.0–1.15 sensitivity and adjust gradually until you find your ceiling.
- Test resolution separately. 1280x960 black bars works for pros, but your monitor and GPU may favor a different setup.
- Import the crosshair first. It is the easiest element to try risk-free—paste
CSGO-Sk8yG-vH3Nd-k7hh5-mjYk6-MkUCPand see if the classic static style fits your eye. - Compare with other pros. Browse settings for donk, ZywOo, NiKo on take.skin to find a sensitivity band that matches your role.
stavn's config is an excellent reference for how a top rifler optimizes for consistency + control. But the best settings are always the ones you can run consistently, day after day, without sacrificing control.
