Like a year or two ago when i tried windows 10 i couldnt play any games in borderless window and get 144hz. it seemed to be a windows 10 problem when i researched it. just wondering if anyone can check or confirm if they are able to play games in borderless window and get 144hz still. thx

I play Overwatch nearly every day at 144Hz on Windows 10 in Borderless Window mode.  Have you made sure your monitor's actual refresh rate is set to 144Hz?

Oh yeah for sure i had checked it. like i said this was a while ago and i sat there for about 4 hours trying a bunch of different things trying to get it to work and the only way it would work is if i had 1 monitor hooked up. do you have 2 monitors at different refresh rates or no?
