Hello everyone! So recently, I got a new monitor, upgrading from an old LG Flattron (1280x1024, 4:3, nothing special) to an Asus VX238H. I had some issues with it, I first hooked it up with VGA. I had some color issues, and when I played Counter-Strike Global Offensive, Fraps showed I had 60fps but it felt more like 20fps.. Was some minor stutter but overall very slow performance. Also, there were some, I guess, ghosting issues, whenever I moved ingame there was this strange trail over textures. Well, then I hooked it up via HDMI. Same issues, maybe somewhat faster. I changed the 'Trace Free' option from 60 to 20, and the 'trailing' and 'ghosting' somewhat disappeared and all is fine I guess. I tweaked my colours, but there's still an issue. Everything still feels slower than on my old monitor. It's like, when it says I have 60fps, feels kind of like 40fps. I'm playing CS:GO on 4x3 1280x1024, and other games I tried, perhaps they run pretty smooth buth still not as fast as it used to, running them on 16:9 1920x1080. I've tried to change the resolutions but it's still the same..
Update:
By the way, my specs are if required;
CPU - Intel i7-2600k 3.40GHz
GPU - Nvidia GTX 560 (underclocked by 150Mhz, had some performance issues, that was the solution)
RAM - 8GB DDR3
Also, should I mention, I had some sound delay when connected via VGA. Using Steelseries Siberia v2 headset.
Also, I use a Razer Abyssus mouse, heard there can be some problems with Razer Synapse.
And to clear something up, I checked my ingame fps of CS:GO, it was 180-220 but still feels slow, like 30-40...
Something else to add, when I turn off V-Sync on CS:GO, it seems to run somewhat faster, although still the same issue.
