Perfect Sensitivity Finder
Stop guessing your ideal sensitivity. Use the proven PSA (Perfect Sensitivity Approximation) method to systematically discover your optimal mouse sensitivity through guided testing.
A sensitivity that feels too slow for you
A sensitivity that feels too fast for you
What Is the PSA Method?
The PSA (Perfect Sensitivity Approximation) method is a systematic approach to finding your ideal mouse sensitivity using binary search principles. Instead of randomly trying different sensitivities, PSA guides you through a structured process that efficiently narrows down your perfect setting.
How PSA Works
- Start with a high and low sensitivity bound that you're confident covers your ideal range
- Test the midpoint between these bounds in-game for 2-3 minutes
- Decide if the midpoint feels too high, too low, or just right
- Update your bounds based on your feedback and calculate a new midpoint
- Repeat until you've narrowed down to your perfect sensitivity
This method is based on the mathematical principle of binary search, which is the most efficient way to find a target value within a range. Professional players and aim coaches have used variations of this method for years to optimize their settings.
✅ Benefits of PSA
- Systematic and efficient process
- Eliminates guesswork and bias
- Usually takes only 10-15 minutes
- Proven method used by professionals
⚠️ Important Notes
- Only do this when you're alert and focused
- Test each sensitivity thoroughly (2-3 minutes)
- Stick with your result for weeks to build muscle memory
- Don't repeat too frequently
How to Use the Perfect Sensitivity Finder
Follow these steps to find your perfect sensitivity using our interactive PSA tool:
Set Your Initial Bounds
Enter a low sensitivity that feels too slow for you and a high sensitivity that feels too fast. Make sure your ideal sensitivity is somewhere between these two values.
Test the Midpoint
The tool calculates the midpoint between your bounds. Apply this sensitivity in your game and test it for 2-3 minutes with aim training, deathmatch, or your preferred practice routine.
Provide Feedback
After testing, decide if the sensitivity feels too high, too low, or just right. Be honest with your assessment - this determines the accuracy of your final result.
Repeat and Refine
The tool updates your bounds based on your feedback and calculates a new midpoint. Continue this process until you find your perfect sensitivity or the range becomes very narrow.
💡 Pro Testing Tips
- Warm up first: Do a few minutes of aim training before starting the PSA process
- Test both precision and speed: Try both small adjustments and quick flicks with each sensitivity
- Trust your instincts: Go with your gut feeling about whether a sensitivity feels comfortable
- Don't overthink: If you're unsure, the sensitivity is probably close to your ideal
Examples and Success Stories
Here's how the PSA method works in practice with real examples:

Why PSA Works Better Than Random Testing:
- Eliminates bias: You're not influenced by what "looks right" or what pros use
- Saves time: Instead of trying dozens of random sensitivities, you find your ideal in 6-8 tests
- More accurate: The systematic approach helps you make better comparisons between sensitivities
- Builds confidence: You know your final sensitivity is truly optimal for your playstyle
Many professional players credit systematic sensitivity finding methods like PSA for helping them achieve consistency in their aim. The key is committing to your result and building muscle memory with your newly discovered perfect sensitivity.
