Lower input latency on external monitor than on laptop screen?

Going from playing on the built in display (60hz 1ms IPS) to an external monitor for the 4th time I have again noticed a decrease in input latency, in both gaming and regular tasks. And this happened on both "gaming" monitors (75/144hz 1ms) and plain old 60hz 5ms ones. The weird part is my laptop's HDMI is not connected directly to the dedicated GPU but instead goes through the iGPU as well (the 1050 is listed as a render only instead of full display device) and so I'm not bypassing anything and there doesn't seem to be any other performance difference. My questions are: Has anyone had this happen to them? What causes input delay on the built in display and can anything be done to fix it?
