It's made for CS:S but the principles can be applied to any game.  If you don't feel like reading it, this is the tl;dr version:  Your mouse knows what it's doing better than your computer does.  Set all your mouse sensitivities to default so they don't influence the input, and turn mouse acceleration off for consistent aiming.  If you want higher sensitivity, get a better mouse, preferably a Logitech MX518.

Currently using 3200 dpi, 6/11 Windows, and 2.4 in game.

Also, everyone should have this in their launch options:
-noforcemparms -noforcemaccel -noforcemspd

Gets rid of any and all acceleration, even if your OS has it turned on.

It seems that I use a relatively high TF2 mouse sensitivity to compensate for my default low mous sensitivity. I like it this way.

Low default mouse sensitivity means that it ignores some of your mouse's inputs, meaning that you will get irregular motion.  And high ingame mouse sensitivity means that it will multiply some of those inputs, which causes more irregularity.

don't. Just get a better wired mouse. I recommend the G9, as it is amazing.
Seconded. I love this fucking mouse.

I use 1200dpi and I have my tf2 sensitivity set to 6.5-7ish. I hate having to move my hand all over the place to play.

Is DPI just your basic natural, inherient (big words over 2 syllables make me spell bad) mouse sensitivity?
