PSA Calculator

You don't know your base sensitivity?

About PSA Calculator

The PSA (Perfect Sensitivity Approximation) Calculator is a free online tool designed to help FPS players find their perfect mouse sensitivity. Instead of relying on random guesswork, PSA uses a structured method that guides you through a series of steps to accurately narrow down your ideal setting.

Why Finding Your Perfect Sensitivity Matters

In any competitive first-person shooter game, mouse sensitivity can make the difference between consistent accuracy and frustrating misses. If your sensitivity is too high, your aim becomes jittery; too low, and you can’t react fast enough. Finding a setting that's both precise and comfortable ensures that your mechanics become reliable, helping you perform better consistently. PSA Calculator is designed to make that process simple, logical, and fast.

How to Use the PSA Calculator

  • Enter your current base sensitivity. If unsure, use our mousepad guide to find it.
  • Start the PSA process by clicking the Start button.
  • At each step, test two sensitivities: one slightly higher, one slightly lower.
  • Pick the one that feels more natural and accurate.
  • Repeat the selection process through 7 iterations.
  • At the end, your perfect sensitivity estimate will be revealed!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need special equipment?

No, any gaming mouse and mousepad will work fine. PSA is based on your personal feel and consistency, not expensive gear.

How long does the process take?

Typically around 20–30 minutes. You should spend at least 5–10 minutes testing each sensitivity for the best results.

Which games is PSA Calculator good for?

PSA Calculator is useful for any FPS game: Valorant, CS:GO, Apex Legends, Overwatch, Call of Duty, and more.

Can I repeat the process later?

Yes! Your ideal sensitivity can change slightly over time with new equipment, settings, or playstyle adjustments. PSA is simple to redo anytime.

Is PSA Calculator really accurate?

While no method can guarantee perfection, PSA is one of the most reliable systems available for helping players fine-tune their sensitivity scientifically.

Pro Tips for Finding the Best Sensitivity

  • Spend real time testing each sensitivity before making a decision.
  • Use tracking drills or custom aim maps to feel the difference better.
  • Don’t overthink small differences — trust your initial comfort level.
  • Once you find your setting, stick with it consistently for at least a few weeks.

About the PSA Project

PSA Calculator was created to offer FPS players a reliable, no-nonsense tool to improve their aim without confusion. Inspired by professional aim training methods, our tool brings the same structured optimization process to everyone — for free, in your browser, with no downloads or complicated setups.

Stay Consistent, Keep Improving

PSA Calculator isn’t about finding a magic number overnight. It's about helping you build a stable aiming foundation so you can grow as a player. Use your perfect sensitivity as your starting point, train regularly, and you'll be amazed at how much smoother your aiming feels day by day.

Common Mistakes When Finding Sensitivity

Many players unknowingly slow down their improvement by changing settings too frequently or chasing numbers they see used by professional players. The best sensitivity is the one that feels natural to your hand movement — not a value someone else recommends. PSA Calculator eliminates guesswork and prevents you from making emotional or rushed changes.

Advanced Tips for Elite Aiming

  • Use a large mousepad to allow a greater range of motion, especially if you prefer lower sensitivities.
  • Maintain a relaxed grip to avoid wrist tension during long practice sessions.
  • Try combining PSA testing with raw aim trainers like Kovaak’s or Aim Lab to sharpen your decision-making further.
  • Always prioritize feeling natural control over raw speed when adjusting sensitivity.

A Suggested Daily Routine

If you want to maintain and improve your aim after finding your perfect sensitivity, consistency is key. A basic daily routine could look like this:

  • 5 minutes of free aim warm-up (moving crosshair smoothly across the screen)
  • 10 minutes of tracking targets (in your game or a dedicated aim trainer)
  • 5 minutes of flick shot drills (fast small target changes)
  • Short break to avoid strain, then play real matches using your locked-in sensitivity

Keeping a stable warm-up routine not only reinforces your muscle memory but also helps you adjust naturally to subtle daily variations like hand temperature, grip fatigue, and reaction sharpness.

What's Next for PSA?

We're committed to expanding the PSA platform with more tools for gamers. Future updates may include custom tracking tests, sensitivity convergence tests, and cross-game sensitivity converters. Stay tuned for new features designed to make your practice smarter and your gameplay sharper!
