I switched from G903 (which has 3366 sensor) to Wireless G Pro with the hero sensor and kept all my settings the same. It definitely felt different to me and I didn't understand why. After a Google search I found many threads of people asking if Wireless G Pro with hero sensor had acceleration because it felt different. I know this worked for me, I can't speak for every other mouse with a Hero sensor, but that would be my guess as to why he switched to 450 dpi. This issue might have been fixed with newer mice.
