So, a few weeks back I got myself a second monitor,

My primary is the XB271HU @165Hz, and the secondary is Acer XF270H @144hz

So, im having major issues when playing games, when I close games, open up games or other applications that the whole computer slows down, when I move my cursor it is acting retarded on the screen, and sometimes freezes up for several seconds and doing weird stuff

Also happens sometimes when just minimizing games too

If I turn on/off the secondary monitor while computer is on, the primary screen flashes and makes the "device detected sound" Window has, and I can bararely use the computer for the next 30 seconds or so

Extremley annoying and makes it almost useless to have a second monitor since it doesnt seem to work well whatsoever


Any fixes/solutions on this?

All my games I run on Fullscreen Windowed
