TenZ settings

TenZ uses the Pulsar TenZ Signature Edition mouse set to 1600 DPI with an in-game sensitivity of 0.7, resulting in an effective eDPI of 1120. This combination allows for precise and rapid aiming while maintaining control, a balance often sought by top-tier players for both consistency and flick accuracy in high-stakes matches.

TenZ’s crosshair is compact and minimalist, featuring a gap of -4, length and thickness of 1, no center dot, and no outline. The color is a custom RGB green (r:50, g:150, b:50, b:50) with high alpha for visibility. This static, unobtrusive design ensures maximum precision by providing a clear point of reference without obstructing targets, making it ideal for accurate shooting in fast-paced scenarios.

TenZ plays on a ZOWIE XL2586X+ monitor, utilizing a 1920x1080 resolution at a 16:9 aspect ratio in fullscreen mode with stretched scaling. He enables DyAc Premium for motion clarity, sets color vibrance to 20, black equalizer to 4, and keeps low blue light at 0. These settings enhance enemy visibility and reduce motion blur, providing a significant competitive edge in spotting opponents quickly.

TenZ chooses low shader and model/texture detail settings, disables V-Sync, and employs 8x MSAA for anti-aliasing. Texture filtering is set to bilinear, and player contrast boost is enabled. By prioritizing lower details, he ensures high frame rates and minimal distractions, while enhanced anti-aliasing and player contrast improve visual clarity for enemy detection and aiming precision.

TenZ customizes his viewmodel with a field of view of 68, offsets of 2.5 (x), 0 (y), and -1.5 (z), and uses preset position 2 with weapon bob disabled. This configuration minimizes on-screen weapon obstruction, allowing a clearer view of the play area and opponents, which is crucial for maintaining spatial awareness during engagements.

TenZ relies on the Xtrfy H1 headset and 64 Audio Custom IEMs for his audio needs, paired with a Shure SM7B microphone and a TC-Helicon GOXLR Mini mixer. This professional-grade setup ensures clear, accurate sound reproduction and communication, providing him with the ability to detect subtle in-game audio cues and maintain crisp team coordination.

Historically, TenZ’s eDPI has transitioned from 800 and 1040 to his current 1120, with corresponding sensitivity values moving from 0.5 and 0.65 up to 0.7. This gradual increase suggests a shift towards a slightly faster aiming style, possibly to complement evolving metas or personal preference for quicker target acquisition while still retaining fine control.

TenZ uses the launch options '-freq 240 -novid -tickrate 128', which sets his monitor to 240Hz for ultra-smooth visuals, skips the intro video for faster game startup, and ensures offline servers run at 128 tickrate, aligning with competitive standards. These optimizations streamline his experience and reduce delay, giving him a technical advantage from the moment he loads into a match.

TenZ uses the Wooting 80HE Black keyboard and a custom mousepad. The Wooting 80HE is known for its rapid actuation and analog input, offering superior responsiveness for movement and utility usage. A custom mousepad tailored to his preferences ensures consistent glide and control, both critical for maintaining peak performance during extended sessions.

TenZ’s system features an MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming X Trio graphics card, Intel Core i9-14900K processor, and 32GB of DDR5 RAM, all housed in a Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO case with robust cooling. This top-tier hardware ensures exceptionally high frame rates, minimal input lag, and smooth multitasking, all of which are essential for maintaining a technical edge in professional gameplay.
