Thank you XIMgameplay, I really appreciate learning from your videos. I’ve had the XIM4 for a couple years and just got the Apex tonight but I never really in depth because their was a lot of false information online and thanks for shedding light in all your videos.
Thanks man, ill make sure to upload more tutorial videos for the xim that make it easier to understand all its options! :)
This helped so much. Great job.
Great to hear that you liked it! :)
Loving these videos. Thanks for your time!
awesome video. Keep them coming!
Great video! I would like to learn more about the smoothing and synchronization features if you have a chance.
thats on the list for the next tutorial videos! :)
Thanks a lot. Purchased xim apex one month ago, the DPI settings have annoyed me so much !
小猫咪瘫痪了 same
Keep it coming please! Also, you skipped synchronization values explaining . Could you please elaborate ? im a little confused for what those settings (slow, default, common, or off) do. I know in theory they are tailored for specific framerates, but I don´t really understand them, please elaborate
i will make a video on synchronization :)
common = for 60fps games, eg CoD of BF
slow = for 30fps games, eg Destiny
default = the original xim4 feeling
off = the xim sends the inputs as fast as possible, this doesnt necessarily give the best results.
i would recommend you to use common or default.
Bro for real ur channel is the best for xim I learn a lot form u , thx for everything
Happy to hear that man! ;)
Awesome I'll be going back to 4k dpi and it's actually what i used to have on the xim4. I bought the xim apex and i configured on the 12k not realizing this info.
Where do i actually change it on the app
Woah, I hear what your saying. Excellent info. It helped me understand a question I had in mind. Excellent work. No wonder FragFx shark controller is 2000 DPI I was right!
Fantastic!
Great video very helpful using 2400dpi now. I think sweet spot is 2000- 6000 low dpi is usually more accurate I recommend everyone to try the default settings of dpi on a mouse much snappier feeling to.
I was using 16k-20k (Lancehead and Basilisk V2) for a while and I noticed there were moments where tracking, recoil management, and snapping to targets were harder to do. I would go too fast and while shooting I would move off target when I did not mean to. Btw I don't use aim assist so those bad movements are mainly from the movements I would have to make to move right. I'll keep you all posted if there is a significant change.
Edit: I dropped to 4500 DPI and it has improved my aim tremendously. It feels just right and it doesn't knock my aim off from small movements like with 16k-20k.
Lol i literally use a cheap 5$ mouse with 800 dpi on the hama speedshot and it works perfect
Hi thanks for your tutorials !
I have a 1000hz xim apex playing 12k dpi on R6S (no aim assist) on a hard mouse pad. Would it be better trying 4k dpi ?
Ado Ten yes
Definitely try it, however you basically have the perfect setup for high dpi so the only difference in your case would be the aim assist behavior. 12000 dpi will reduce the aim assist while 4000 dpi would slightly increase it. Since RB6 doesnt have any aim assist though you should theoretically have the very same accuracy with 12000 dpi than with 4000 dpi. The mouse movement behavior will slightly change though between the two dpi values, 12000 will feel more granular while 4000 will be a little bit snappier. I play RB6 with 3200 dpi for example although my mouse also offers up to 12000 dpi.
@@XIMCentral Thank you so much for your response. I really appreciate how you're dedicated to this, even though you're asked the same questions all over again ! Thanks mate.
I tried 4k dpi for a few days, tried different sync settings, and eventually did go back to 12k default sync as it felt more playable to me. But as I watched your other videos I did a big discovery : I was playing with a too high sensitivity that I thought was good for my playing style but that actually I couldn't handle. I lowered everything and it's night and day !
For everyone who's struggling finding the good settings : set the dpi the highest depending on your mouse pad type, then lower your sensitivity to the point you'll do a 360° going all the way across the pad (watch the sensitivity tutorial). First give it a shot for a few hours and you'll see !
@@adoten4900 Great to hear that the sensitivity change worked out so well for you! :)
I play with 4k dpi, 150 hip and 46.5 ads.
Great video keep them coming. I have a xin4 and also play on PC. Can I convert my turn 360 distance from PC to XIM4 using the calculator mentioned.
no this is not possible, but you can do something else. get a ruler and measure the distance you need to make a full 360° turn in your PC game. then launch your xim and adjust your xim sensitivity so you also do a 360° turn with the same distance :)
i recommend to move the mouse very slowly so the result is accurate.
for me, in fortnite, with a high end g900 mouse i feel the 500hz, 500 polling has the least amount of jitter at 4k dpi, steel mouse pad, interesting to try a plastic one though like the video says. there is a pretty big difference betwen a clean mouse pad and not as well as oils can build up from sweating. i clean mine twice a week. it helps. great informative video, man nice work!
if your mouse runs best with 500hz then this could indicate that it struggles to send a constant 1000hz signal, whenever you mouse drops lower than 1000hz it will cause jitter with the xim. here you have a website where you can test if your mouse runs steady 1000hz, move your mouse very fast in circles:
zowie.benq.com/en-eu/support/mouse-rate-checker.html
in general i would recommend you to use 500hz though, theres hardly any benefit from going with 1000hz instead :)
I lowered the dpi from 10000 to 4000 on my g502 and holy f. It’s feels so much smoother and precise now. It feels as it reacts smoother and more accurate if that makes sense.
That makes perfect sense because thats exactly what you would expect from lowering your dpi, especially if you play on a cloth mousepad! :)
Went from 12000 to 3200, then 1600. 1600 actually works the best for me, 3200 is also pretty good. Can’t believe I used 12000 for so long.
if your xim sensitivity is below 100 (or 350 with sync off) then you can also go 1600 without any accuracy problems :)
nice to hear that the dpi change worked out so well for you!
1750-1800 is perfect for me
@@MyDokuChannel how strong Is the aim assist on cod4 using that DPI?
How do I change it
XIMGameplay low chance of a reply but i want to play with 400, or 1600, and will not accept any other dpi so what should my sense be to use it on default
Nice, will try that method.
The xim apex has much more potentiality, and yes we would like to see more tutorials about this topic to get much out of this small beautiful device.
definitely, i will continue to upload more tutorial videos :)
next up is a "how to increase and decrease aim assist" and a "synchronization tutorial".
if you would like to see other topics being covered just let me know!
XIMGameplay thx for the effort man.
I think I know that you use a Zowie Mouse (EC2-A). What polling rate do you use in your zowie mouse and XIM apex?
12,000 DPI feels the absolute best with synchronization OFF.
I just personally can’t feel 4,000 dpi is better. 12k just feels right.
Logitech g502.
teddy thodo what mouse pad do you have?
teddy thodo I use a soft cloth pad and 12000dpi works fine to me too! Less aim assist the better!!
then your mousepad works well with the amount of dpi and you most likely prefer the aim assist behaviour with 12000 dpi over lower dpis :)
theres nothing wrong with that, keep your settings if you enjoy them! :)
Nick Sn it’s an Ultra Pro playing mat used for like trading card games like Magic or Yugioh. It’s a little thin, but it’s plenty big. 40” width 24” height. Feels perfect.
Jose Piedra yea this is the settings that allows for less aim assist feeling. But it also depends on the game and how it handles aim assist. In fortnite in particular the ADS is pretty bad so i just deal with it. But hip it’s virtually none.
Can you please make a tutorial for aim and dpi sensitivity for Rainbow six siege?
U guys are so bad enough to use MnK fucking losers
Deniz YENİCELİ says the one who’s watching this video
16,000 DPI. I play with aim assist off (due to the sheer annoyance) and that feels amazing for me. But am going to try the new information you've provided, Thanks.
Just wish consoles or game manufacturers would integrate FOV adjustment.
> a new XIM user.
let me know how it works out for you. a few selected games such as BF1 and Warframe offer a FoV slider, most games dont though as it will have a negative effect on the game performance/fps
If you want the best setup your going to have to calibrate the settings based off each piece of hardware per game. Screen resolution to dpi to fps, polling rate to USB port refresh rate, and ideal dpi settings for the mouse vs mouse pad/surface. Then finally in game settings vs xim sensitivity vs ballistic curve to acquire a comfortable high precision setup. Take your time and tune one thing at a time. My trick is to max a setting out, test aim to see its effects, then reduce it to usable settings to learn what each setting does to your input. There is no cut and paste setting that covers everyone's equipment variety. So learning what works and doesn't is up to each user. The xim requires attention in settings and in return will grant you fantastic aim.
Yes that would be ideal, that way you have a config setup that is fully meets your needs the best.
I have a question do i need to have my controller always on? Or can i turn it off
Visca Barca just always keep it on to be safe
The controller has to be always on and connected to the xim if you want to use it. when you stop playing you can of course turn the controller off (and the XIM too).
I have a problem. Every time I connect my controller to the xim it turns off (the mouse and keyboard still work though) and if I turn it back on the mouse and keyboard stop working. This leads to the problem that I can’t use my headset on the controller. Help!
Christian Pélissier I’d recommend a Mixamp that plugs into your console directly like the Mixamp Pro by Astro
Should I buy one of these off of Amazon?
Do you know how to get rid of delay?
@@Dkryptd increase you're mouse HZ / REPORT RATE.
500hz is 2 ms delay
1000hz is 1 ms delay
@@SupJayy I already play on 1000 polling rate. Does out of date mouse translation contribute to delay?
@@Dkryptd yes branded mouse which are new work best.
@@SupJayy I use the logitech g502 Hero and every time I want to change my config it displays a big message that says to remake my config in order to update to the latest. If I remake my config would it get rid of the delay?
Excuse me just have question, when you usd dpi calculator you put the current dpi and new dpi... the current sensitivity? You mean sensitivity in xim for hip fire or for ads or what?
Yes its the new xim sensitivity for hip or ads after you changed your mouse dpi :). That way you keep the same sensitivity.
Thank you for a great a video! Again thank you for a great pruduct!!!
How about this setting:
Xim sensitivity : 190
mouse DPI: 800
In game sensitivity: maximum
Aim assist: on
I use Logitech G pro
Is it ok?
Hey, those are really sub-optimal settings. Your xim is not a pc and requires a lot of dpi, 3000 dpi is the minimum you want to use to avoid micro-stutter. Increase your dpi and reduce your xim sensitivity, then its a really good config setup.
XIMGameplay what setting would you reclined to get something that feels like 400 dpi
Fun Games you’d need more information to figure that out. Are you talking about 400dpi when you use it on a pc? In a certain game? What’s the in game sensitivity you’re comparing it to?
Ihave logthic g502
What ur best settings for it?
Ximgameplay, had some lack of Apex product, because I bought it, I paid, and I'm anxious to receive it here in Brazil and so far nothing, I watch these videos and see how good it is and not enough.
hey, so your xim is on the way? when will you receive it? :)
if you watch my tutorial videos and the apex videos from obsiv you should be well prepared :)

I have a Steel Series Qck+ mouse pad and my mouse is a Logitech G Pro (Wired Edition) so you would recommend going from 1000hz to 500hz on polling rate? Im a very slow sens player btw. Currently on 10,000 dpi
Hey, as seen in this video you should first drop your dpi to 3000-4000 dpi as cloth pads such as the qck+ dont work very well with more dpi. As for your polling rate there is a test that you can do to find out if the mouse runs better on 1000hz or 500hz, here you can find the test: th-cam.com/video/SPWwpB9jFa0/w-d-xo.html
Can you do a video to what Hz is best?
sure, thats actually a good idea. will work on a "how to increase and decrease aim assist" video first, then might tackle your suggestion!
XIMGameplay
Thank you! :D
Any idea of when the video you're making is going to be uploaded?
on friday i wanted to upload a fortnite video, the aim assist video should be out this this sunday if i get it done in time.
until the polling/hz tutorial video is out here you have a short guide:
1) plug your mouse to the pc set your mouse to 1000hz
2) run this website: zowie.benq.com/en-eu/support/mouse-rate-checker.html
3) now click into the website so it tells you your current mouse polling/hz
4) move the mouse very very fast in circles and check the polling/hz counter
5) if your mouse can perform steady 1000hz then the xim apex 1000hz mode is the best polling rate for you
6) if your mouse drops to eg 990hz sometimes (or lower) then do the following:
6a) keep your mouse at 1000hz and set your xim apex to 500hz with 0 smoothing
6b) keep both, your mouse and your xim at 1000hz and add a smoothing of 3-7 to reduce the mouse jitter
in these two cases, personally i would recommend to go with 6a) as it gives the better "pure" aim for better pc accuracy, 6b) will give you more aim assist if you prefer that (which is also fine tbh)
XIMGameplay
Thank you very much, I will try that.
My mouse got up to 1000hz, but I had to struggle hard to get it up to 1000hz, it dropped to 990-999 Hz the majority of the time.
You repited the same stuff like 20 times
I'm playing the division a 3rd person shooter game with Razer naga hex I use dpi of 16000 and xim apex 500 Hz and very low sens values but I use a soft mice pad I feel perfect with it.
Its some how personal preference and you need to work on it.
I have a Razer DeathAdder Elite with a Razer Sphex mousepad mini. What would be a good DPI to use and XIM sensitivity to use since it is not a cloth mousepad? Also, what is smoothing and X/Y ratio?
Hey, go with 3000-4000 dpi as that usually gives the best aim assist behavior. XY Ratio changes the sensitivity of your axes, you can make the X axis more sensitive than the Y axis or the other way round. Smoothing is explained here: th-cam.com/video/4bxH0cxQg4I/w-d-xo.html
Please not have this voice, it really annoys me
Dazu you’re irrelevant
PC Skeng okay?
I wonder how you sound XD... He have very calm voice..
then gtfo dumbass
dont care they asked do you like this voice😂 I'm just telling them no I dislike it.
is the higher than 4000 dpi still relevant with the new steady aim feature and so on? or is something like 6000 dpi better with the new steady aim and other new features to help break in and out of the aim assist. ? another question. in the end, lower dpi works better with aim assist right?
Yes lower dpi works better with the aim assist which is why 3000-4000 dpi is still ideal, even with the new xim settings such as steady aim :).
@Xim Central I I have a question? can I hook up my mouse and keyboard with the same values of the DPI instead and use my controller and still get the benefits from the mouse and keyboard
Hey, what do you mean exactly?
Im using 4k dpi, 27.5 hip sens, 27 ads, for fortnite just on my first week with the xim apex. Still trying to get used to building. But my accuracy is on point. Got some games with 7-9 kills in today.
Once you got the muscle memory down for your bulding buttons youll be even better! :) For XIM its best to use the controlelr layout builder pro in my oppinion.
XIMGameplay can you give xim4 fortnite settings, I’m a low sens player
I don't know what dpi is my mouse i just put the highest dpi and turn up sensitivity to max on both XIM APEX and the game and it is perfectly responsive. Feels better then gaming on PC. In games like Battlefield this feels very OP. Last mission storyline on Battlefield 4 i just run in to all enemies and head shot everyone within 10 seconds. That felt OP as with pad there is no way i kill enemies so fast.. They would shred me in to pieces... So far i tested it with XBox One X.. I also have XBox 360 slim waiting to be tested.. Both great gaming consoles and I have so many games i simply ditched after an hour of playing only because there was no Aim support nor Autoaim, and pad controls were extremely jumpy.. My mouse feels great when DPI is highest, game sensitivity highest, and XIM APEX sensitivity is 90. It aims like a beats! Eagles would be jealous. Aiming just got on to a whole new level.
Based on your XIM sensitivity i would estimate your DPI is around 3000-5000, so you re prefectly fine in that regard! :)
What sync settings do you prefer for rainbow 6 😊?
sync common and default will give the best results, will do a video on this soon that explains the different sync settings in more detail
Why would someone dislike the video? We need this info if we're buying one
Controller players that hate MK on Console will dislike in a heartbeat.
i personally use 16K dpi and it works fine
Does smoothing mess up accuracy at all or just lessen jitter
if you go above 10-15 smoothing it will start to reduce your accuracy, its best to stay in a range of 0-10 :)
if this range doesnt reduce your mouse jitter completely then you should consider to either play with 500hz instead of 1000hz, or use the xim sync feature common.
So what DPI would you recommend then? Start maybe at 4k and go from there - lowering it in increments?
If you try both, 3000 dpi and then 4000 dpi you will see that the mouse performance is identical, the only thing that will change is the aim assist behaviour. 3000 dpi will have more than 4000 dpi. So id just try both and stick with the one you like more, if you prefer a mixture between the two aim assist behaviours then go with 3500.
So overall test 3000, 3500 and 4000. Testing more doesnt make that much sense anymore :).
I see.
A little background:
- Mouse: Logitech G603 (w/ new hero sensor)
- Mousepad: Corsair MM300
- Keyboard: Corsair Wireless K63
- 500Hz polling rate (both mouse and xim) --> per your recommendations and tests
- Firmware: 20180501 **[Beta]
- Software: 20180528 **[Beta]
- Console: Xbox one
I did a lot of experimenting recently switching back in forth between 4K DPI (12 Xim Sens) and 12K DPI (4 Xim sens). I switched between the two profiles (and corresponding Xim profiles) periodically with just a click from my mouse and keyboard hotkey. I used overwatch for my crude tests.
(12K DPI & 4 Xim Sens)
--> I found that the 12K DPI felt more 'natural'
--> More responsive and connected in comparison to 4K
This is what I am used to so I am a little fond of it.
(4K DPI & 12 Xim Sens)
--> felt more "soft" ; as if there was a dampening effect on some of my movements such that it made them feel less responsive but more 'fluid' (ie less jerky)
--> not as connected as 12K
--> definitely different feeling;
--> I did not notice any improvement on aim assist. to be fair, i've never really had a problem with aim assist sticking
I am conflicted with whether to stick to 4K DPI, and I am wondering if my experiences are normal/expected or if there is possibly something else occurring that is causing me to dislike 4K DPI. The decision to go back to 12K DPI would be a lot easier if your argument for a lower DPI wasn't so compelling. (e.g. the fact that 12K DPI works best with nearly perfect surfaces and is easily distorted by detritus). I WANT to like 4K DPI and am hoping that there is something wrong with my setup that is causing me to prefer a higher DPI.
Sorry for the rant, I thoroughly enjoy your videos and your production quality is awesome!
Hey, your experience is exactly what you should have found out by testing, due to the higher scanning resolution of 12k dpi the mouse movements will feel slightly more direct. This comes from the micro-jitter that your cloth surface is causing, a minor mouse moevment will result the sensor in registering in several mouse inputs while with low dpi it will just scan one movement. If you move your mouse very slowly, say you want to make pixel-perfect micro adjustments you might notice the micro-jitter.
The intensity of the jitter will overall depend on the quality of the cloth pad, if the surface is very flat with small fibres then you will notice less jitter than on a surface with a lower density of larger fibres.
Now about the question what you should go with, id recommend you to stick with what feels better for you. Right now it sounds like your muscle memory got used to 12k dpi, so id stick with that for now. If you ever take a break from this specific game, OR you start a new one, then this is a good time to re-evaluate 3000 dpi as your brain will then experience an "undistorted" comparison between 12k and 3k dpi (since you are not used to the mouse behaviour in this game with either of the two).
Thank you for that lengthy and comprehensive reply! You are absolutely right about why it feels like 12K seems more direct, but considering I've only had the Xim for less than a month, I think it would benefit me to go ahead and make the transition over to 4K DPI as my mouse movements aren't refined and they shouldn't take precedent over the long term experience with my Xim. As always, you are a source of enlightenment and I am happy to have found your page. Thank you again! (:
No problem man, always a pleasure to help out Ximmers to increase their gaming experience! :)
Bei den polling test den du hier irgendwo in den Kommentaren erwähnt hast komme ich mit meiner g502 nur auf 800 - 900. Das ist schon extrem... Kann ich das irgendwie beeinflussen?
nein das liegt u.a. an der verbauten CPU deiner maus, die kann nicht die geforderte Leistung für 1000hz erbringen. das ist relativ normal und findest du bei fast allen namhaften mausherstellern. der preis einer maus würde deutlich ansteigen wenn nur makellose CPUs verbaut werden. sollte deine maus keine konstanten 1000hz liefern können dann stell sie auf 500hz (und das xim auch), die meisten PC profis spielen übrigens aus genau dem grund auch auf 500hz.
I use 5000 DPI, 1000 HZ, Xim sensitivity 200 on Overwatch and I love it! It’s fast but I can easily control fine movements like a PC 😍
Matthew Odou what mouse are you using?
What type of mouse and keyboard are you using ?
Xim sensitivity 200??? Hmm most of the profiles have a default sensitivity of 15. Did you increase ingame sensitivity as well?
@@ronin7590 200 sensitivity?! That 200 sensitivity sounds incorrect. Maybe he meant 20, because 200 would be unusable with that DPI and Hz.
Hallo XIMGameplay
I have just bought the apex. All settings are set, but my mouse do not respons when i make slow movement. Its not smooth movement like in your videos. My dpi is set for 36oo. Can you help me - im so lost with this. :/
Hello Sir! I'm new to your channel, and as a XIM Apex user I'm really enjoying your videos.
I wish to learn more about XIM and mouse settings, and your videos are really helping me out.
But I have a question: what does the new "synchronization" feature actually do? I mean, what are the advantages?
I have it on OFF at the moment...
I tried searching on the forum but I didn't get a satisfying answer.
Looking forward to new videos!
hey, ill be doing a video on synchronization very soon that will explain what it does.
i would recommend you to either use sync default or sync common as those give the best mouse movements.
off reduces the aim assist, common increases it and default is somewhere in between. dont use slow, it is meant for games with 30fps.
Ok didn't know sync had an impact on aim assist...
But what if I don't want too much aim assist, so I should use default, in a 60 fps game?
Thanks for your reply!
then use default, both default and common work very well in 60fps games :)
Most people on TH-cam recommend max dpi like 12000 to 16000.Are they wrong or is it personal preference.i have to set my mouse up on a friend's computer before I take it home to use so would be handy to know
They re actually wrong, from a mathematical point of view theres no gain in going above 3000-4000 dpi. So you can expcet the same tracking precision with 3000 dpi than with 16000. However a lot of mousepads arent made for 16000 dpi so its usually best to run 3000-4000 for a better tracking on the mousepad.
Very late comment but I've use the xim3 for so long usually playing mw3. Sometimes, controller users gets better aim then me. Should I upgrade to Xim Apex for better, smooth , accurte aim? Also, what settings on mouse and Xim should I use for best PC like experience?
The difference between a xim apex and a xim3 is quite noticeable, its more precise, only 1 millisecond delay and offers much more adjustment knobs. However this will not necessarily improve your aim by a large margin, one thing that most likely increases your accuracy a lot more is to find your personal best mouse sensitivity that works best for your dexterity. Most people tend to play with sensitivities that are too fast or too slow, see this tutorial on how to find your own best sensitivity with a xim. (can be done 1:1 with a xim3 too). Link: th-cam.com/video/rs0sH4rfGRc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for replying . One more question. I watched your video on how to increase/decrease aim assist. Aim assist
really help me out with accuracy. You said all these things increases it: 3-7 smoothing- 3k-4k dpi, common sync, 125-250 hz, and and an aim assist ballistic curve. With all these combined, how strong will the aim assist be?
Only add the curve at the curve at the very end if the aim assist isnt strong enough yet, the reason is that the curve changes your mouse behaviour much more than any other setting and therefore will also decrease your overall accuracy (in return you have more aim assist). So definitely go like 250hz, sync common, smoothing 3-7 and 3000-4000 dpi first. If your mouse movements are too mushy then remove a bit of the smoothing or go with 500hz instead :).
Ok. Do you know the best aim assist settings for xim3? I appreciate the help
The formular is the very same, the difference though is that xim3 is locked to 125hz and you cannot change the sync. So overall similar but less knobs to increase the aim assist, most notably the dpi, smoothing, ballistic curve and analogstick movement. The xim3 has two other things though: With boost you can reduce the aim assist, with acceleration you can slightly increase the aim assist without the need of a ballistic curve.
Moin, klasse Video! Hab mal ne kurze Frage, ich versuche die ganze Zeit meine Dpi mit der Logitech Maus einzustellen, das Problem kommt jz. Jedes mal wenn ich auf mein Laptop Dpi umstelle und dann wieder die Maus an der Xim anschließe ist das jedes mal ne andere Sensibilität, ich weiss ist ein bisschen viel, aber brauche dringend Hilfe
Hey, aktiviere im Logitech Treiber die Onboard Memory Funktion. Dadurch werden deine DPI Einstellungen auf den internen Speicher platziert und die Maus hat immer die selbe DPI Zahl wenn du sie mit dem XIM verbindest :).
i changed it from 8200 to 3300 and a huge improvement hapoend i play BO3
nice to hear that you like it!
Hey, so I'm on XIM4, I want to look more controller like, what dpi would give an analog stick look? I've tried 3200 but it's kinda jittery
Hey, steady aim and a config setup like the MJFame one (tutorial video on this channel) will let your mouse movements become closer to those of a controller player.
can you make a video regarding the best call of duty " in game" sensitivity or both game aim assist should be on or off. to apply with the dpi,pooling rate and aim assist.
so a full CoD game config? i will probably do a Fortnite config tutorial first, i can add CoD to the list.
XIMGameplay thanks. like wwii
Where do you adjust the dpi? On the manager app? I cant find it anywhere
Either on the mouse itself or via its mouse driver, maybe check your mouse manual for further infos on how you do that.
Does it matter if you vary your dpi between 3000 and 4000. For example will it make a difference if I put it at 3200 dpi instead of 4000 dpi
It will not change the quality of your mouse movements but the amount of aim assist you have, less dpi means more aim assist while more dpi reduces it. For more about this check out the increase/decrease aim assist tutorial on this channel.
I have the Logitech G700s. Its maximum is 8000 Dpi and I was using that value with XIM Apex but I think there is some over acceleration. So 4000Dpi is the sweetspot yes?
For most games and mice yes! :)
Please help!!! I can not for China, install an XA application, on a Sony Xperia S smartphone, as if a new version is available for download, and therefore; / Can someone steer what to do??? Thx!
XIMGameplay I have a question. Once I Calculate my DPI and Sensitivity in the calculator, at the end of calculating for the new sensitivity it is recommended that the final result should be between 0 to 100
Hey, if you use a XIM4 then yes you should make sure that your final xim sensitivity is below 100. The reason is that this will prevent mouse stutter. With a XIM Apex this isnt so important anymore though, its mainly for the XIM4.
if i want to feel the aim assist which dpi should i go with. Im playing with 3k but still having a problem with killing enemies
@@fahad3438 Then you can use the other aim assist increasement steps that i showed in my aim assist tutorial. Overall though the aim assist will not do the aiming for you, it will only assist you. Therefore make sure that your general mouse aim accuracy is good. A lot of people use sensitivities that are way too high for them and therefore they do not have a good aim. The aim assist will slightly help then, but you may still not properly aim on the enemies. Therefore i would also recommend you to do my perfect sensitivity tutorial.
XIMGameplay bro now my aim is much better than before .. I just want to say thank u man. I really appreciate your help .. once again THANK YOU 🙂
@@fahad3438 Nice to hear man! :)
Is the Redragon M801 a good mouse for the Xim? Max dpi on the mouse is 16,400 btw.
Hey, i dont know a lot about the mouse but if it has onboard memory and a good sensor then it should be a good pick!
Hi i play fortnite with 400 dpi and 0.14 mouse sens is this going studder alot? Im very comfortable with this sens
Are those your PC or XIM Settings?
I LOVE THE 1600 dpi
Hey with the new XIM firmware, you can go up to 500 sensitivity, when do you start getting upscaling? I'd like to know how much I can lower my DPI without getting any upscaling, is it still 100 even tho maximum is 500?
Hey, the XIM Apex uses the same upscaling as XIM4 but offers different syncrhonization options to circumvent the upscaling issue. It also offers different polling rates which further help with that.
@@XIMCentral Thank you!
I need help I have a magic eagle keyboard everything works except the mouse it says on the app unknown it says unknown 125hz
What kind of mouse do you have?
I play on 7200 DPI. What should I put my Synchronize on? Idk what it does. Does it have to do with aim assist? Like what is Off, Default, Common, Slow? Btw, just came back trying 3000-4000 DPI. I have a 1000hz polling rate on my mouse and with the 3000-4000 DPI, it’s more jittery than the 7200 DPI and UP. Does this jitter with the 3000-4000 DPI with 1000hz polling rate have to do with Synchronize?
all three can cause jitter, so you need to find the optimal settings for these. 3000-4000 is optimal for dpi, for polling i did a specific tutorial video that will allow you to find the best polling (its different for every mouse so i cannot say what works best for you), for synchronize you should use either default or common.
@XIMGameplay what about zowie on xim4 ? Is he a good mouse on xim4 ? Pls need answer ❤
Yes it is, i also have a Zowie (an EC1-A). Use it in 3200 dpi mode for the best results! :)
I just got the G502 Hero. Should I max out my DPI to 16,000 or stick with 12,000?
Depending on what mousepad you have stick to either 3000-4000 dpi or max dpi (see video).
The funny thing for me is that I've been using 450 dpi on both my xim 4 and computer. I dont notice the stutter much on my xim 4 but ive probably acclimated. By going around 3 to 4k dpi on my xim do you believe my performance will be more similar to PC then and improve?
Your mouse movements will be more responsie and precise, in return you will lose a lot of aim assist strength as the lower the dpi the more aim assist you have. If your xim4 sensitivity was above 100 then you will notice the better mouse movements quite a lot, especially when doing slow precision movements.
My sensitivity is 500 and I run 450dpi. Would it still be better to convert to 3000-4000k dpi and use low sens instead? Also, should I max my sensitivity in game to make myself more accurate?in destiny 2 I use 7 sens with my initial settings of 450 dpi and 500 sensitivity I also do a boost of 35 in my mouse setting
Yes absolutly, you basically ignored every important apsect for your XIM to opperate as it should. If you want the best possible mouse movements you MUST always set your ingame sensitivity to maximum, and in most games you even need to set further ingame adjustments that you can find here:
community.xim.tech/index.php?topic=43775.0
Your XIM has been optimized for one specific ingame setting, if you use anything else it wont work well.
Also your XIM needs at least 3000 dpi to give you PC like mouse movements, the reason behind this is explained in the video above.
what means appear flash red lights during move the mouse (xim4)?
this means that you move your mouse faster than you can turn in the game, its a feedback from your xim that you move your mouse too fast :)
you can deactivate the red blinking if it annoys you
How about a game with no aim assist like Rainbow Six siege? Still better with 4000dpi than 12k? I'm goin to test it out , I like ur vids pls upload more tutorials.
Xim- R6siege -apeX did u test it? If so, how was it?
Hiiii Mouse has the highest value is 3200 dpi, so do I use the highest or reduce it to 2400 the first lowest??????
Hey, if the highest mouse dpi profile is 3200 then definitely use that. 3200 dpi gives excellent results with the xim, so i would highly recommend you to use 3200 instead of 2400 dpi :).
Hey what DPI will start to give a more analog stick look?
Less DPI will do that, try 800-1600 DPI. Dont expect an incredibly big difference though, a well trained eye will still spot the difference between a stick and a mouse. Its more about the way you aim with your mouse than the settings you use.
the best dpi is between 3000 and 4000. which would give more aim assist, value near 3000 or a value near 4000?
Less DPI results in more aim assist, so 3000.
Will using 1200 dpi be good as thats what i usually play on fortnite
1200 oder 12000? 1200 is kind of low, you want at least 3000 dpi so your xim can give you the best mouse movements.
Thanx for advice.
I have one question, my cheap gaming mouse... i don’t know how to chnge the dpi settings.
It’s a cobaltwing gaming mouse from amazon.
i would try to google how to to it, there are usually two ways:
1) the mouse has dpi buttons with which you can change the dpi
2) you can configure the dpi via the mouse driver that the mouse uses, in this case the mouse needs onboard memory so that the changes can be saved on the mouse and therefore carry over to the xim
XIMGameplay thank you so much again...
Hope to hear new advices from you.
if you cannot find a way to change your mouse dpi, and your xim sensitivity is much higher than 100 with noticeable stutter, then how about you maybe consider a mouse like the g203. its one of the cheapest logitech mice but offers extremly good value for the money. it has onboard memory, 12000 dpi max and can be configured via the logitech gaming driver.
Thanx again.
In a game like Rainbow six siege there's no aim assist so using a high dpi wouldn't matter would it? .and why do some admins at xim forums always say using the highest dpi will always be better? Just trying to figure this out. .thanks for your videos. They're amazing
Any DPI above 3000-4000 doesnt make your mouse movements better but will for the most part only change your aim assist behaviour. The general saying "use maximum dpi" comes from a simplification, its easier for a customer to understand "use maximum dpi" than saying "hey, 3000 dpi minimum so make sure you check that your mouse has that". Even average desktop mice come close to 3000 dpi nowadays so with this sentence you can make sure the customer doesnt suffer from low DPI problems.
XIMGameplay ok,thanks. Great explanation. .I'm going to load a new config and try everything from 3k to 6k dpi and off,default and common sync..that's where I get kind of confused because I don't know which sync to use and usually don't want the hassle of finding my sensitivity after I change synchronization. It's kind of like having too many television channels, you end up changing the channel looking for something better instead of watching television, ,if that makes sense. .
Hey, sync is made to match your ingames framerate. slow = 30fps games, common = 60fps and default is around 120fps. Since most games are 60fps sync common usually gives the best mouse movements. Outside of that sync also affects aim assist, slow and common give the most aim assist while default or even off reduce it. (see more in my aim assist video tutorial). I heard RB6 works great with default.
XIMGameplay it works great with default and off..that's why I keep bouncing back and forth. Most of it is probably a placebo effect but I keep looking for ultimate setting and I really don't think it exists. Especially with me, being a brand new mouse and keyboard player. It takes time and I am impatient. Lol
YO sorry wie hoch sollte eigentlich die Zeige Geschwindigkeit im Windows sein ? die ist ja abhängig auf alle Games
Hey, diese Option hat keinen Einfluss auf das XIM und wird auch nicht intern auf die Maus gespeichert.
I have a g pro wireless and when I press the Logitech button on the xim app it says 1000 HZ USB does that mean I should use 1000 HZ ?
It just means your mouse currently uses the 1000hz profile, which doesnt give any indication on how constant the signal is. Do one of the polling rate benchmarks to find out about that th-cam.com/video/SPWwpB9jFa0/w-d-xo.html Mouse dpi is a different value.
What is better for the xim logutech g402 or g502?
Both are equally good, it all comes down to what weight, button layout and shape you prefer.
Also your calculator is labeled wrong. The new dpi should be current dpi. You should get a decreased sensitivity on lower dpi
The calculator gives you a lower sensitivity when reducing the dpi? Thats odd, it doesnt do that for me.
Do you recommend 3000-4000 dpi for the XIM MATRIX too?
For Matrix more DPI is better. The sweet-spot appears to be 8000-12000 DPI.
@@XIMCentral Now I see why it's set to 10000 dpi by default. Thank you very much!
I use 10K dpi with hard mouse pad and synchonize default Aim:10 ADS:8 in battlefield 1 do i need cloth pad and 4K dpi ?
no if you have a hardpad then 10k dpi is perfectly fine, also sync default is a very good setting!
I play on hard mouse pad ( g440 ) with g502, should I poll at 1000 or 500 and which dpi would be optimal 3200/12k. Also if I’m playing on a game that has 30fps, what sync should I put it on...?
If you have a hardpad then you can go max dpi, the only difference then will be that 3000 dpi will give more aim assist compared to 12000 dpi. As for the 30fps, sync slow is what you want to try as its made for 30fps games. Common is for 60fps but can result in a better mouse performance, so try that too.
As for your polling rate, this changes between every mouse so you have to try if your specific one can run 1000hz or not. Here you have my polling rate tutorial that shows you 3 methods on how you can test if your mouse runs better with 1000hz or 500hz:
th-cam.com/video/SPWwpB9jFa0/w-d-xo.html
XIMGameplay can I poll at 500 and xim at 500 with dpi at 12k with no problems .?
Yes that should be fine, check out my Best Mouse and XIM Polling Rate Tutorial Video if you want to test how well your mouse runs 1000hz or 500hz :).
how much dpi should i use to break some of the aiming assistance? my current dpi is 3200
would be in the game batllefild 4
Try 12.000 dpi or alternatively add some boost (200-300 boost).
Wish i could find a good deal on all the stuff you need for this
A cheap yet great mouse can already be bought for 20-30€ (logitech g102 and g203).
@@XIMCentral Hey bro my English is bad.😂
4000 dpi is too slow for me and I play with 11000. Is it bad?
@@erfanebham9780 If your mousepad supports higher dpi values then no, its all good :).
Very helpful video my dude :) thank you so much ,i use 12k dpi because the xim apex recommended that , but im having so much trouble playing fortnite , because the aim assist is ridiculously strong ,you have no idea -__- so now i will try your settings ,Thank you bro
Aim assist is weaker with higher dpi what are you talking about..
Does lower Dpi work better than higher dpi on XIM4?
yes, just like with xim apex go with 3000-4000 dpi
So when I change it on pc it will keep the same dpi when I plug it in the xim
Only if you save your changes onto the mouse onboard memory (if your mouse has that of course).
I play cod with a hardtop mousepad. What dpi do you think is better to use for me? And i also have a logitech g502
With such a mousepad you can go with any dpi value that is higher than 3000. A value of 12000 will reduce the aim assist slightly while lower values close to 3000 will boost the aim assist. Your mouse accuracy will be identical with both dpi values on such a mousepad.
And i have a question on ballistic curve. Will it do anything to my aim assist?
Yes it definitely will. Here you can learn more about the effect of the ballistic curve on the aim assist: th-cam.com/video/o7yvB4a0YVU/w-d-xo.html
My mouse have 12.000 dpi but I put it on 5000 with a agressive balistic curve to have more turn velocity,minute 11.20 on your second balistic curve tutorial,1000 hz and 5000 dpi os correctly?
That curve is really helpfull in games with a slow maximum turnspeed. If your game doesnt have a slow turnspeed then i wouldnt use the curve as its not really needed. But overall yes the curve will increase your mouse sensitivity so it sounds fine that you reduced your dpi from 12000 to 5000 (which basically reduces your mouse sensitivity keep the same mouse speed with the curve than without the curve).
Yo xim im trying to get the deathadder v2 pro can i use it wireless with my apex? Also do i need to change any of my settings here to use it wireless?
Hip: 110/Ads :57 / Off sync / No curve / 5 smoothing (both hip and ads) / 6400 dpi / 20 aimassist window size (25 for solider) 60 aimassist ease in / Exponential ramp / 1000hz / 100 scope in game / PS4 OW1 profile (1.3)

Also were is the xim apex manager?
Hey, just connect the wireless USB receiver of the mouse to the XIM and it will work! :) And you must not change your settings, you can keep those when using the mouse wireless! What do you mean with the XIM Manager?
@XIMCentral oh nothing just if my settings were fine to use on the ps4?
@@Warpgate8 Yes those look fine! 💪
Are you required to have a computer to change your mouse dpi?
It depends on the mouse, for some mice you dont need a pc (eg zowie mice) while for other mice you will (eg logitech). I would recommend you to google your mouse model and how you can adjust its dpi :).
So I should use the lowest DPI as long as my xim sensitivity is bellow 100?
Like what is better 3100 DPI with 61 hip and 31 ads or 400 DPI with 47.28 hip and 24.03 ??
@@plazmq3572 The 100 sensitivity rule only applies to 125hz with sync default. In general its best to stick to 3000-4000 no matter what polling rate or xim sync you use :).
I have a Razer deathadder and my dpi only goes up to 2500dpi but I use 750 dpi is that bad?
yes thats not very good. the xim is not a PC where you can run 800 dpi and have super accurate mouse movements. i assume your xim sensitivity is really really high right?
try to set your mouse to 2500 dpi, if it works you will have to divide your current xim sensitivity by 3,3 to have the same mouse speed as before. your mouse movements should be much finer and responsive now :)
Im using 12000 and 10000 dpi right now, should i turn it down to 3000 to 4000 dpi then?
Only if you use a clothpad, if you dont then you can keep it as it is. 12.000 dpi will slightly reduce the aim assist too btw.
İ have a logitech 502 hero but i don't wich settings i need to use? Please help
For the Logitech G502 you have to use the Logitech Gaming Driver to adjust your mouse settings, also make sure to tick the onboard memory box in the opening screen so that your changes carry over to the xim.
