I got two monitors:
Main Samsung 24FG, FULL HD 144Hz Free Sync connected through DP <-- I game on this one
Second Samsung 27, FULL HD curved generic model connected through HDMI
GPU: RX580 4GB
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
I've had so many issues with FPS dropping in games, specially League of Legends. Basically if I have a second monitor on it doesn't matter if the game is in full screen or borderless mode, FPS always drops below the monitor framerate and it's very noticeable
Things I've already tried:
- Updating GPU drivers.
- Cables are the original ones that came with the monitors.
- Tried setting the main monitor to 120 hz because I read somewhere windows doesn't play well when they have different frequencies.
- Tried freesync on both, and on the main one.
- Tried adaptive vsync on/off on the RADEON software.
- Tried vsync in game's configs.
- Lowered settings to the max, still happens. Game usually uses 50% of the GPU and 35% of the CPU so I don't think that has anything to do with it.
I've noticed that things are ok whenever a match begins, but as soon as I alt+tab and alt+tab back, things get bad. I have to alt tab back several times until the monitor flashes and the "DISPLAY PORT" message appears.
Has anyone had a similar issue?
