Massive fps drops

Hello,

         I have two 1440p monitors, my gaming one which is 144Hz and my second that's on 60Hz. I like watching Twitch streams while in q for matches in games. I have a 7800X CPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 1080ti. When I watch a stream on the other monitor as of recent, it dramatically kills my fps on my gaming monitor. I've always turned the streams down to 720p instead of 1080p60 so I would have good frames still. But now I get like close to 70 and sometimes less than 60 frames when playing games and watching streams. Is this a hardware issue, could it be a driver issue, or could it be something  I'm not doing right? Thank you in advance!

Turn off the hardware acceleration in your Browser.

Okay, just did. Thank you very much! I'll test it to make sure in a second here. I just looked up what that is and why that makes a difference. Sounds like it's my fix. I sound dumb for not knowing... Lol
