Gaming mouse

Well actually my friend bought it, I just chose it. It was a gift for helping him build a computer.



The problem is that it's a laser mouse, and I have this habit where I slightly lift my mouse when I turn. When I do that, my mouse gets messed up and it shows my cursor twitching. I'm not sure what dpi to use to make it so I don't have to lift it up. If I use max, it moves too much. I don't know what frequency I should use either.


I want it to move similar to my regular mouse, but with more accuracy.

It seems that every time I increase the dpi, it moves faster. Would it be possible to make it move like my old mouse, but with more accuracy?


How do I find out my old mouse's dpi?

I removed mouse acceleration a long time ago.


The mouse is A4 tech f5 mouse. I've used 800dpi, 1200, 1600 and 3000 with both 500MHz and 1000MHz. It's just not the same as I was used to. I've been trying to get used to it for a week, and I don't think a mouse takes this long to get used to.


It might have to be with me being left-handed, but I'll try to get my friend to use it later on and see if that's the problem.

My previous mouse doesn't work well. It's wire has a small opening which caused it to malfunction when I moved it quickly.

I lift my mouse because my mouse pad is short and I don't know how to explain it, but has to do with space and movement.
