Donk CS2 Settings (2025): Pro Config, Crosshair, Mouse & Video Setup

 

When you watch Donk play, it’s like watching an aimbot with perfect timing. The young CS2 prodigy has become a fan favorite not just for his raw mechanics, but for the clean, calculated chaos he brings to every round. But behind the highlights and headshots is a setup tuned for pure performance.

This guide shows you Donk's whole CS2 setup, from how sensitive his mouse is to how fast his monitor refreshes. You can see exactly how he plays and maybe even pick up some tips to improve your own setup.

And if you’re looking to match that performance with a skin loadout just as clean, check out the CSGO case openings on Clash.gg. Your next headshot might just come with a Karambit.

Who Is Donk? (And Why His CS2 Settings Matter)

Link

 

Danil "donk" Kryshkovets is one of the fastest-rising stars in the Counter-Strike scene. As a member of Team Spirit, he has a reputation for destroying top-tier teams with his mechanical skill and ruthless entry frags, often at the age of 17.

His settings are important because they show how he plays: quickly, fearlessly, and with precision. Donk doesn't use flashy resolutions or gimmicky crosshairs. Instead, his whole setup is designed to give you clear visuals and consistent results. This makes it worth studying whether you're grinding Premier or just trying to win in matchmaking.

Mouse Settings

Link

Donk’s mouse setup is all about control. He uses 800 DPI paired with a low in-game sensitivity of 1.2, landing him at an eDPI of 960. This low-sens style gives him precise movement and helps anchor his crosshair during fast peeks or tight angles. His zoom sensitivity stays at 1.0, giving him predictable aim when AWPing or using scoped rifles. It’s a setup that favors muscle memory over flashy flicks.

  • DPI: 800
  • Sensitivity: 1.20
  • eDPI: 960
  • Zoom Sensitivity: 1.00
  • Windows Sensitivity: 6
  • Polling Rate (Hz): 1000

Crosshair Settings

Link

Donk's crosshair is best described as clean, tight, and highly visible. He uses a cyan classic static style that is small enough not to be distracting but sharp enough to stand out against any background. There is no center dot or outline, and the alpha is set to 255 so that it can be seen.

If you want to copy it directly, here are the in-game codes:

CSGO-Z49GH-zv3B2-Tanis-mNT7L-xDFFN

CSGO-ZsU2v-DUbfC-acyi7-Hu4Et-MeG4C

CSGO-k8JMF-MHmZF-P4AJH-jfB2u-yJh8E

CSGO-pROzG-BHGjD-pf6TW-CYNvZ-dA7yD

It’s a crosshair that doesn’t scream for attention, but it’s been behind some of the crispest headshots in recent memory.

Video Settings

Link

Performance over everything. Donk runs 1280x960 stretched with a 4:3 aspect ratio, a classic setup among pros looking to make enemy models appear larger. He minimizes distractions by running low on all graphics settings, disables V-Sync and motion blur, and keeps his brightness slightly boosted for better visibility in dark areas. The result? High FPS, zero clutter, and a clean visual field for tracking and pre-aiming.

Resolution: 1280x960

Aspect Ratio: 4:3

Scaling Mode: Stretched

Display Mode: Fullscreen

Brightness: 94%

Refresh Rate: (144 HZ at Home) 360 HZ

Currency

Viewmodel & Bob

Link

Donk's viewmodel makes sure that the gun is out of the way and the screen stays focused on the crosshair and targets. The weapon stays centered but isn't too obvious with a slightly higher FOV and adjusted offset values. Bob settings are turned down to cut down on visual bounce when moving. This makes aim tracking more stable during duels or strafing.

viewmodel_fov 68

viewmodel_offset_x 2.5

viewmodel_offset_y 0

viewmodel_offset_z -1.5

Gear Setup

Link

Donk uses a ZOWIE EC2-CW mouse, an ergonomic favorite among pro players for its shape and consistent sensor. His keyboard is a Wooting 60HE, chosen for its rapid actuation and analog precision. His monitor, the ZOWIE XL2546K, is known for its DyAc+ tech that keeps motion blur to a minimum. Top it off with a HyperX Cloud II headset and an Artisan Zero mousepad, and you've got a gear list that’s built for both comfort and killing power.

Mouse: Logitech G Pro X Superlight Black

Keyboard: Logitech G Pro X Mechanical Keyboard

Headset: HyperX Cloud II

Mousepad: SteelSeries QcK+

Why Donk Uses These Settings (Pro Insights)

Link

 

Every choice Donk makes has a reason behind it. To casuals, his low resolution might seem old-fashioned, but in a pro setting, it's gold. Larger enemy models make it easier to aim, especially when flicking and tracking. He has surgical control because the low sensitivity lets him clear angles or lock down multi-kills without over-flicking. His crosshair even shows what he cares about: visibility, simplicity, and consistency.

Donk is different because he doesn't make things too complicated. He only uses the settings that work, and nothing else. In CS2, that kind of simplicity can be a very powerful weapon.

How to Copy Donk’s Setup in CS2

Link

 

Getting Donk’s exact config is easier than you think. Copy the crosshair code straight into the in-game settings. Adjust your video resolution to 1280x960 and switch your aspect ratio to 4:3 stretched. If your mouse supports it, set DPI to 800 and tune your in-game sens to 1.2. For viewmodel and bob, open the developer console and paste in his FOV and offset values.

Want to go all-in? Grab a 240Hz monitor, tweak your Nvidia settings for low latency, and add launch options to optimize performance. While you’re at it, reward the upgrade grind by checking out CSGO cases on Clash.gg, because clean headshots look even better with a stat-tracked AK in your hands.
