Full config 3 parts
Download .cfgThe CS2 console can reject a pasted line longer than 510 characters, so the full config comes in parts: press ~ in CS2, paste part 1, press Enter, then do the same with the next part. Or download the .cfg, save it in Counter-Strike Global Offensive/game/csgo/cfg/ and run exec olofmeister-2015 in the console.

How the date is known
olofmeister's game-written config.cfg (name "olofmeister3-1 * Kinguin") from setup.gg's archive. Its cl_operation_premium_reminder_op05 holds a 4 Jan 2015 timestamp and it has no op06 reminder, which arrived with Operation Bloodhound on 26 May 2015, so it was saved between those dates.

How the date is known
Same game-written config.cfg as the crosshair (sensitivity 1.7, zoom ratio 1.2), saved between 4 Jan 2015 (its op05 reminder timestamp) and 26 May 2015 (Operation Bloodhound, whose op06 reminder it lacks).

How the date is known
olofmeister's setup.gg profile (data.yml), added on 13 Dec 2016 and unchanged since, lists 400 DPI and 1000 Hz with sensitivity 1.7, the same as his config. 13 Dec 2016 is the latest date these values can be from.

DPI is only taken from a source that lists the same sensitivity, so the eDPI matches the sensitivity shown. The other parts can come from configs of different dates, as listed.
