A starting point you can use today
Set Rainbow Six Siege to a sensitivity of 5 at 800 DPI (the setting is in the mouse settings, using the horizontal sensitivity, called Mouse Sensitivity (horizontal)). The same aim is 0.409 in Valorant, 1.302 in CS2, 4.341 in Overwatch 2, 1.302 in Apex at 800 DPI.
Play with it for a few days. If it feels too fast, move toward a higher cm/360 in small steps, and the other way if it feels slow. The sensitivity finder does this in seven guided rounds.
