First off, brand new user here, but I've been watching Linus Tech Tips for years, so I'm glad to finally be here. Anyway...
I have a dual monitor set-up with a high refresh rate gaming monitor and a TV set. In Chrome, watching 60fps content on video sites like YouTube causes the video to drop frames and eventually stutter if I watch it on the secondary display. Moving the video over to my primary display or using another browser and watching the same video at the same settings both result in 0 dropped frames
System specs:
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K
GPU: GeForce GTX 1080
RAM: 16GB DDR4
Storage: 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD/1TB WD Blue 7200RPM HDD/1TB WD Blue 7200RPM HDD
Displays: ASUS VG248QE 144Hz panel/Vizio TV running at 60Hz
Troubleshooting actions taken:
Enabled/disabled hardware acceleration in Chrome
Tried a clean installation of Chrome
Synchronizing display refresh rates (IE, setting both of them at 60Hz)
Graphics driver updates and rollbacks
Problem still persists in BETA and Canary builds of Chrome
Tried other monitors
Tried other display outputs on the graphics card
None of the above has helped. Any guidance or help would be appreciated as I'm at my wit's end with it and it's been going on for the better part of a year now.
Thanks in advance, everyone
