Rarely for aiming: the AULA SC900 MAX's 30,000 step is for huge screens or tiny wrist movements, not everyday play. Its ladder jumps from 6400 straight to 30,000, so most players settle at 400 to 1600 and tune sensitivity in-game. Evetech sells it in three colours.
Look closely at the AULA SC900 MAX's sensitivity ladder and one step stands out. The five lower settings climb in a neat doubling pattern, and then the last one leaps from 6400 straight to 30,000. That top rung makes a striking headline, but a 30,000 DPI mouse setting is a specialist tool, and knowing when it helps, and when it gets in the way, saves a lot of confusion.
Rarely for aiming. The SC900 MAX's 30,000 step suits very large or high-resolution displays and setups where you want tiny hand movements to cover huge distances, not everyday play. Its ladder jumps from 6400 directly to 30,000, so most players settle between 400 and 1600 and tune sensitivity in the game. Evetech sells it in Black, White and Red, all at R749.
The SC900 MAX's steps run 400, 800, 1600, 3200 and 6400, each double the one before. Then comes 30,000. There is no 12,800 in between.
Think of the bottom five as the working range, covering everything from precise shooter aim to fast desktop navigation, and the top step as the ceiling that shows how far the mouse can go. Including it gives the mouse a very wide span of sensitivity from a single button, while keeping the everyday steps evenly spaced.
A few setups genuinely benefit from settings well above 6400:
For most gaming, though, 30,000 is far more sensitivity than a hand can control precisely. Tiny tremors turn into big cursor jumps.
No. DPI is simply the ratio between hand travel and cursor travel; it does not make the mouse more accurate. Many competitive players deliberately use low DPI, such as 400 or 800, with modest in-game sensitivity, because it gives fine control over small adjustments. Higher DPI makes the cursor faster, not steadier.
The DPI button is on the underside, so reaching the top step normally takes several deliberate presses. If the cursor suddenly races across the screen, flip the mouse and check the indicator light. The 30,000 step shows cyan; keep short-pressing until the light shows the colour of the step you normally use.
It is easy to confuse DPI with polling rate, but they are independent. Polling decides how often the mouse reports to the PC, and on the SC900 MAX it reaches 8000Hz over the 2.4GHz dongle or the cable, set in AULA's software from a 1000Hz default. Changing DPI does not change polling, and vice versa.
Covered by a 1 Year Local Warranty, the 62g SC900 MAX also carries a removable 400mAh cell and three connection modes. Look through Evetech's gaming mice to compare sensitivity ranges, or see the full wireless mouse selection.
The five lower steps double each time to cover everyday use, and 30,000 sits above them as a ceiling for specialist setups.
People on very large or multiple displays, and anyone who needs small hand movements to cover long distances.
No. DPI changes cursor speed, not accuracy. Most players aim better at low steps with in-game tuning.
A cyan indicator means 30,000. Press on until your usual colour appears.
No. DPI is set with the underside button, while polling is changed in AULA's software.
At 400 DPI, which is also the default setting.
