New mouse, same DPI settings, cursor speed different

I'm not entirely sure what's going on here, but I just grabbed a new mouse (G502 Proteus Spectrum) since it was on sale and my current G500 is dying. I got the new Logitech Gaming Software and compared my DPI settings from my old Logitech Setpoint application, but when I set the DPI settings to the same as my old mouse, the cursor speed is way off.

It's hard to explain properly, but I've had to change the settings to much lower than my old mouse because I kept overshooting the cursor. I don't think it's mouse acceleration since I disable that garbage the moment I get a new mouse, but maybe I'm overlooking something here. The new Logitech software did detect old profiles from Setpoint, so maybe it's defaulting one of my gaming profiles? Every time I load the software, my settings are changed and it doesn't give me the option to save anything, but when I make changes inside the software, it implements the changes automatically and it feels like they keep after I close the software.

Any ideas? I kinda feel like I'm going crazy and just imagining the speed is different but I got wrecked in Doom 2016 because my aiming was all over the place whereas this morning with my old mouse I had no issues at all.
 
What exactly does the polling rate do? Setpoint had it at 500 whereas LGS had it defaulted to 1,000 so I moved it to 500 when I first installed the mouse. I changed it to 1,000 just now and I can't tell what that did.
 
it's not the polling rate.

i suspect the SetPoint or whatever the mouse desktop utility is called does not recognize the 502 as the same mouse (as the 500) and did not load your profile. unistall everything, run a "logitech drivers remover" and reinstall.
 
Setpoint doesn't recognize the 502 but it has its own software called Logitech Gaming Software which worked perfectly fine. I was using the same settings I had from Setpoint with my old mouse but I was modifying the settings in the LGS.
