Westmelon settings

Westmelon currently plays with a mouse sensitivity of 1.25 and a DPI of 800, resulting in an effective eDPI of 1000. This setup provides a balanced approach, allowing for precise aiming while maintaining enough speed for quick adjustments, which is a preferred configuration among many professional players for optimal control.

Westmelon utilizes a classic static crosshair style with a compact design featuring a small gap of -4, a length of 1.5, and zero thickness, without a center dot. The crosshair is colored green with full RGB values enabled, offering high visibility against most backgrounds and supporting accurate target acquisition during high-pressure scenarios.

Westmelon currently uses the ZOWIE XL2566X+ monitor, a top-tier esports display known for its high refresh rate and advanced motion clarity features. Paired with features like 'DyAc Premium' and a color vibrance setting of 12, this monitor setup enhances motion smoothness and color differentiation, which are crucial for spotting enemies and reacting quickly in fast-paced matches.

Westmelon opts for a 1280x960 resolution with a 4:3 aspect ratio in fullscreen mode and uses stretched scaling. He disables V-Sync and NVIDIA G-SYNC to minimize input lag, keeps shader and particle details low for better performance, but enables features like boost player contrast and very high global shadow quality to maximize enemy visibility and environmental clarity.

Westmelon uses the HyperX Cloud II Wireless headset, a popular choice among professionals for its clear positional audio and wireless freedom. Although specific in-game audio settings are not provided, this headset is known for delivering crisp sound cues, which are essential for accurate enemy detection and situational awareness in Counter-Strike 2.

While Westmelon's exact keybinds are not detailed in the provided data, his use of the Logitech G Pro X TKL Keyboard Magenta suggests a preference for a compact, tenkeyless layout that allows for more mouse space and efficient hand movement, which is vital for rapid in-game actions and ergonomic comfort during long sessions.

Westmelon customizes his viewmodel with a field of view set to 68, an offset of 2.5 on the X-axis, 0 on the Y-axis, and -1.5 on the Z-axis, using preset position 2. These settings position the weapon model closer to the screen's edge, maximizing the visible play area and minimizing distractions, which helps maintain focus on enemy movement and map details.

Westmelon pairs the ZOWIE FK2-DW mouse with the ZOWIE G-SR-SE Red mousepad. The FK2-DW is renowned for its lightweight, ambidextrous design and high polling rate, while the G-SR-SE provides a consistent glide and controlled surface. This combination ensures precise tracking and comfortable handling, which are essential for sustained accuracy in competitive play.

Historically, Westmelon has experimented with higher sensitivities and lower DPI, such as a sensitivity of 2.92 paired with 400 DPI (eDPI 1168). His current configuration of 1.25 sensitivity and 800 DPI (eDPI 1000) reflects a shift toward a lower sensitivity, which is generally favored for improved precision and finer control during aim-intensive engagements.

Westmelon enables NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency and disables FidelityFX Super Resolution, prioritizing the lowest possible input lag and the highest visual quality without upscaling artifacts. He also uses 8x MSAA for anti-aliasing, which smooths out edges and improves visual clarity, enhancing his ability to spot opponents at a distance without compromising frame rates.
