Are the displays compatible? (resolution, refresh rate, freesync)

It will be fine, but you can only game on one monitor at a time

Posted

So, I'm currently using two 1080p 60hz displays but I'm thinking of getting the Acer 27" Predator XG270HU since it's 1440p FreeSync 144hz for an amazing price. 
But will that display be compatible with the other two? It feels like different resolutions and refresh rates + freesync should cause a problem.

Also: Should I buy that monitor or wait until new ones are released? (Don't have the patience to wait more than 1-2 months though...)

Thanks. :)

That will be fine. Just as long as I can play games and watch Netflix at the same time. ;)

Displays are independent, there's no compatibility that you need between them.

Yeah, but it just felt logical to me that displaying content on two different monitors in different sizes and speeds would cause a problem.

Thanks for the answer! :)
