Nope, changing your resolution in CS:GO doesn't actually affect your sensitivity. Your sensitivity remains the same whether you're playing on a lower resolution or the highest one possible. What does change, though, is your perception of sensitivity. With different resolutions, the game's visuals scale differently, making movements feel faster or slower, but the underlying sensitivity settings don't actually change.

Nah, resolution and sensitivity in CS:GO? They're like two strangers in a bar; they don't really interact. Your DPI and in-game sensitivity settings stay constant no matter what resolution you're running. Might feel different, but it's all in your head, buddy.

Actually, it does! When I switched from 1080p to 4K, my aiming felt off. I had to adjust my sensitivity to get it feeling right again. Just my two cents.

Short answer: No. Long answer: Still no, but the perceived change comes from the visual differences, not actual sensitivity adjustments.
