i can't figure out how to switch to the application on my second monitor mid-game without minimising my game. I am also using gsync. also on my new Asus ROG Strix XG27ACS monitor I turned on HDR for that monitor in Windows settings and now I can't access colour settings or vivid pixel.
Is there any way around that ?
 
Hey there,

Does Win key + Shift + left or right arrow work? Otherwise I'm not sure if it's possible exactly.

As for the monitor. Most are like this. If you have HDR on other options cannot be used, because they would be interfering with each other. Another example is if you use Adaptive Sync, then you cannot use MPRT. Limitations of the tech.

Just to be clear about the setup:

Dual monitors. Game on one monitor and some application on the other monitor.

And the requirement is to toggle between monitors - correct?

What projection mode ( WIN + P) is being used?

PC screen only

Extend
Second screen only

Are you able to get to the GPU's control panel by right clicking an empty area of the desktop and select "Show more options" via the drop down menu?

After selecting/clicking "Show more options" a new menu should appear that lists, by name, the GPU's Control Panel.

Check the configuration settings.
