Speed Classification Chart
Understand where your cm/360 falls in the competitive spectrum:
| Category | cm/360 Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Lightning Fast | < 20 cm | Extremely fast turning, wrist-only aiming. Uncommon in competitive play. |
| Fast | 20–30 cm | Quick reactions, good for aggressive entry fragging. Requires strong wrist control. |
| Balanced | 30–45 cm | Most popular range among professionals. Good balance of speed and accuracy. |
| Precise | 45–60 cm | Precise aiming with arm movement. Excellent for AWPers holding angles. |
| Ultra Precise | > 60 cm | Maximum precision. Requires a very large mouse pad and full arm movement. |

Why cm/360 Matters More Than Raw Sensitivity
Raw sensitivity numbers are meaningless without context. A player at 400 DPI with 2.0 sens and a player at 1600 DPI with 0.5 sens have identical crosshair speeds — both travel 45.45 cm per 360° turn. The cm/360 measurement strips away the hardware variable and tells you the physical reality of how your arm needs to move.
This becomes critical when switching mice or DPI settings. If you know your cm/360 is 40 cm, you can calculate the exact sensitivity for any DPI: Sensitivity = (2.54 × 360) / (DPI × 0.022 × cm360). Moving from 400 to 800 DPI? Just halve your sensitivity. Your muscle memory stays perfectly intact.
Mouse Pad Size Requirements
Your cm/360 directly determines the minimum mouse pad size you need. For comfortable play, your pad should be at least half your cm/360 (to allow 180° turns). Playing at 50 cm/360 means you need a pad at least 25 cm wide, though 35+ cm gives you room for corrections. Most competitive players use extended pads (80–90 cm wide) for unrestricted arm movement.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is cm/360 in CS2?
- cm/360 measures how far (in centimetres) you need to move your mouse on your desk to complete a full 360-degree turn in-game. Lower cm/360 means faster turning; higher means more precision.
- What is a good cm/360 for CS2?
- Most CS2 professionals play between 25 cm/360 and 55 cm/360. The sweet spot for most players is 30–45 cm/360. AWPers tend toward the higher end (more precision) while entry fraggers play lower (faster reactions).
- How is cm/360 calculated?
- The formula is: cm/360 = (2.54 × 360) / (DPI × Sensitivity × 0.022). The 0.022 is the CS2 engine sensitivity multiplier (also called yaw value). This gives you centimetres of mouse travel per full revolution.
- Why is cm/360 better than eDPI for comparing settings?
- cm/360 is a physical measurement — it tells you the actual distance your hand needs to travel. This makes it easier to set up consistently across different mice and DPI settings, and directly relates to your mouse pad size requirements.
- How big should my mouse pad be for my cm/360?
- Your mouse pad should be at least as wide as your cm/360 divided by 2 (for a 180° turn). If your cm/360 is 40 cm, you need at least a 20 cm wide pad, but 30+ cm is recommended for comfortable play.
