Hi all,
So I just upgraded my good old 1060 6gb to a 6650 XT and it's honestly such a good card for £299. However, I'm having a rather major issue which is that every single game lags without using borderless full screen and having the adrenaline performance overlay enabled (I can literally disable this during gameplay and it lags horribly, enable it and it's smooth as melted butter again). I've done some research and narrowed it down to a driver bug where dual monitors have different fps ? [poster may mean different refresh-rates].
I have a 75hz free sync for gaming and a big 60hz 3d projector for our main living room TV, both plugged into my pc (no issues on the 1060). I can roll the drivers back to an early December one which will supposedly fix it but I don't want to be stuck on that outdated driver forever. So playing in borderless with the overlay up set to transparent is fine, but some games such a Mx vs atv do not have borderless, so I can't play that anymore! This is such an irritating issue on such a good value g card, plz help!!
Also just to be clear this issue happens even while the projector is off but I have not tested with the hdmi unplugged completely as this is not practical for us. Monitor uses dp, projector uses hdmi, both into the g card. The issue also persists if I plug the projector into the mobo and use the igpu for it, with the bios setting enabled.
System specs:
Windows 11 (installed fresh only 2 months ago and fully up to date). Also the Nvidia drivers were DDUd before installing the AMD card.
MSI B660M-E mobo
i5-12600k
MSI 6650 XT Mech
32GB DDR4 Kingston Renegade 3200mhz
750w gold fully modular PSU
1TB NVMe SSD / 120GB SATA SSD / 3TB 7200 HDD / 3TB 5400 HDD
Monitor is a 75hz Freesync LG 24 inch
Projector is yaufey (outputs up to) 4k 60hz up to 300 inches
