donk CS2 Settings: Crosshair, Sensitivity and Resolution

The donk CS2 settings most worth testing are his compact static crosshair, reported 800 DPI at 1.25 in-game sensitivity, and reported 1280 × 960 stretched resolution. Start with the crosshair and keep your own sensitivity for the first session. That makes it easier to tell whether you actually see targets more clearly.

Key facts

• A November 4, 2026 match snapshot shows a static crosshair with 2 px length, 2 px thickness and a 1 px gap.
• The snapshot uses yellow and has its outline off. Another published settings profile shows green, so the color depends on which snapshot you follow.
• The reported mouse settings work out to 1,000 eDPI.
• 1280 × 960 is a 4:3 resolution. Stretched describes how it is displayed on a wider screen.

Import the November 4 crosshair

In CS2, open Settings → Game → Crosshair. Save your current share code, then use Share or Import to paste the new one. If the game rejects an older code you found elsewhere, enter the values below manually. Choose Classic Static, switch off the outline and center dot, and use a custom color.

Valve's September CS2 patch notes explain why a recent code matters. Crosshair length and thickness now use pixel units, and the game rescales them when the display resolution changes. Compare how the crosshair looks on your own screen before assuming a different-looking result means you entered the wrong values. Our September CS2 update guide covers the wider patch.

Match the sensitivity at your own DPI

ProSettings' October 28 profile lists 800 DPI and 1.25 sensitivity. Multiply those values to get 1,000 eDPI. You can try the same effective sensitivity in CS2 without changing the mouse DPI you use on your desktop.

Divide 1,000 by your DPI. At 400 DPI, enter 2.5 in CS2. At 1,600 DPI, enter 0.625. These are equivalent values for the same in-game sensitivity scale. Keep your zoom setting steady while testing so you can judge one change at a time.

If you consistently overshoot while flicking to a target, try a small reduction. If you struggle to clear two angles in one comfortable swipe, try a small increase. Test both close and distant targets before settling on a number.

Try the stretched resolution separately

The same profile lists 1280 × 960, 4:3, and stretched scaling. Select the aspect ratio and resolution in CS2's video settings. If you see black bars, check your display or graphics driver's scaling options for a full-screen setting.

Try a map you already know. Check whether you can read the crosshair against bright and dark surfaces and whether the change feels comfortable when tracking a moving target. Use your previous resolution if it gives you a clearer picture. If you need to unlock the competitive mode to use the setup there, see our CS2 Premier guide.

Keep a copy of the settings you started with. You can test the setup with your existing loadout. For anyone already shopping for a cosmetic, Skinbase has a separate skin price comparison tool for checking listings across marketplaces.
