Dual screen setup - Second screen freezing up when playing games on main screen.

[Legolaz]

Hello,

I play games on my main screen, and the second one keeps freezing while running Twitch or Youtube videos.

 

Main screen refresh rate is 144hz, 2nd is 60hz.

Changed the main to 120hz, but it doesn't fix it.

This started happening with Window 11 upgrade.

It is updated to the last update available.

Nvidia drivers are all updated to the last driver.

Tested this with multiple Nvidia drivers, same issue.

Lowering 2nd monitor stream to 480p seems to fix it. But I used to run it at 1080p, 2160p, source with no problem in Windows 10.

 

PC specs:

AMD Ryzen 3700x

16gb @ 3600Mhz

2070 Super.

 

 

-Not running any overlay.

-Not recording anything.

 

 

Anyone having the same issue?

You might not like this, but i highly suggest using Windows 10.

At least until W11 is ready.

 

Because now you are most likely limited as to when Microsoft fixes this.

And from past experience i know for a fact, Microsoft puts multi-monitor users at the back of the line.
So i'm not expecting any fix anytime soon.
