Problem
So my previous problem was with two 24" HP monitors and with their 1920x1200 16:10 native resolutions. Some games didn't like that at all, and it also made my streaming experience really awful. If i streamed, i had to play windowed at 1920x1080 (16:9) so it would scale nicely to 720p. So i was thinking that maybe its time to upgrade to 1440p 144Hz, so i bought ASUS PG279Q monitor. I plugged my new beautiful monitor to display port and enabled 144Hz from display settings. First game i tried was Path of Exile and god it looked good. It was too good to be true, and it was.
So i put my normal setup on. On HP monitor on my left, i have my Discord open and maybe Chrome or Spotify playing some background music. Then i have someones Twitch stream open on my TV muted. And last but not least, i play games on my 144HZ monitor. But you might already quess what happens; all content on 60Hz monitor gets laggy and sluggish. Twitch stream goes sometimes black, sometime sound stutters. If i move volume slider with mouse really fast, it will be rubberband, If i change my 144Hz monitor to 120Hz, it doesn't fix that. If i change it to 60z, everything works smooth. If don't use Chrome but i use Firefox, it does the same thing.
I have Googled about this problem and i have seen all kinds of workarounds. People have been fixing this by enabling iGPU and plugging second monitor to there. Yeah i can do that. But when i stream, i keep my OBS, OBS alerts and chat on my seconds monitor. So what will happen when i have OBS open on my second monitor on iGPU and i try to stream content from 144Hz monitor that is on 2080RTX?
Is there something that i have missing or something i could try?
