jks settings

jks currently plays with a sensitivity of 1.85 and a DPI setting of 400, resulting in an effective eDPI of 740. This combination provides a balanced level of control and precision, allowing for accurate crosshair movement while maintaining the ability to react swiftly in high-pressure situations. Many professional players favor low DPI and moderate sensitivity for optimal consistency and muscle memory development.

jks utilizes a classic static crosshair style with a minimalistic shape—featuring a very small gap, short length, and thin thickness, without a center dot or outline. The crosshair is colored cyan, which stands out clearly against most in-game environments, enhancing visibility without distraction. This setup is ideal for precise aiming and quick target acquisition, as it limits visual clutter and keeps the focus on enemy models.

jks's current monitor is the ZOWIE XL2586X+, a high-refresh-rate display designed specifically for esports. This monitor supports ultra-fast response times and high frame rates, which are critical for fast-paced games like CS2. The clarity and smoothness provided by such a monitor enable jks to track opponents more effectively and respond to in-game events with minimal input lag, giving him a distinct competitive edge.

jks plays at a native 1920x1080 resolution with a 16:9 aspect ratio in fullscreen mode, using high shader and global shadow quality but keeping model texture and particle details low. This blend ensures that visual clarity and important effects are prioritized without overloading the system, maximizing both performance and the ability to spot opponents quickly. Disabling V-Sync and G-Sync further reduces input lag, vital for top-tier competitive play.

jks sets his mouse polling rate to 4000 Hz, which means the mouse reports its position to the computer 4000 times per second. This extremely high polling rate ensures near-instantaneous response to hand movements, reducing input lag to a minimum. Such responsiveness is essential for maintaining precise aim and fast reactions during intense firefights, especially at the highest level of competition.

jks currently uses the Logitech G PRO X 2 Headset White, which is renowned for its clear positional audio and comfortable fit. Accurate sound cues are crucial in CS2 for detecting enemy movements and actions, and a high-quality headset like this ensures that jks can pinpoint direction and distance of in-game sounds, providing a tactical advantage in clutch situations.

jks uses the Wooting 80HE Frost keyboard, known for its analog input capabilities, paired with the Lethal Gaming Gear Saturn Pro V2 mousepad. The keyboard allows for highly customizable actuation points, enabling faster and more precise movement inputs. The mousepad provides a consistent, smooth glide, which is essential for maintaining steady aim and controlled flick shots during matches.

jks's launch options include commands like '-noforcemaccel', '-noforcemparms', '-freq 240', '-novid', and '-tickrate 128'. These settings disable Windows mouse acceleration, set the monitor refresh rate to 240 Hz, skip the intro video, and enforce a higher server tickrate. Collectively, these tweaks optimize input consistency, reduce startup times, and ensure the smoothest possible gameplay experience.

jks sets his monitor’s color vibrance to 12 and black equalizer to 10, with low blue light at 0. High color vibrance increases the distinction between player models and backgrounds, while the black equalizer brightens dark areas without washing out the entire image. These settings help jks spot opponents more easily, especially in shadowy or dimly lit areas of the map.

Throughout his career, jks has experimented with a range of sensitivities and eDPI values, as seen in his historical settings. While his current setup is 1.85 sensitivity at 400 DPI (eDPI 740), he has previously used sensitivities as low as 0.45 and as high as 1.8, with corresponding DPI and eDPI changes. This evolution reflects his ongoing pursuit of the perfect balance between speed and precision, adapting his settings as needed to optimize his aim and comfort in various competitive environments.
