400 dpi (dots per inch) is the standard for "mice" that allow no adjustment. Most adjustments to speed (up or down) are made in the operating system for a "fixed" mouse. For mice that are adjustable on the fly (run?), it usually goes in steps such as 400 dpi, 800 dpi, 1200dpi, 1600 dpi, 2000 dpi. Some mice intended for gaming increase in multiples of 400 dpi. For example: 2X, 4X, 8X or 400, 800, 1600, 3200 dpi. The higher the dot per inch setting, the faster the mouse will move across the screen, or , in a game, the faster the mouse will move your shooter. Some gamers don't use a mouse. They use the left, right, up and down arrows on the right side of the keyboard. Keyboards have #1 priority and respond instantly to inputs with no latency. Gamers who master the arrows are very, very hard to beat. They develop finger coordination skills like an athetic musician without thinking about it and will beat multiple opponents in rapid succession, surprising even themselves with their "eye of the tiger". Such players are often accused of cheating but they have no need of it and react with incredibly short reflex time (1/10th of a second is possible). Very tough and instructive. When you play against one, you will know it. :)
