Yo, I have a MSI GTX 970 which I play a game on which I get 300 FPS in. As soon as I start my second monitor (HDMI) the game I'm playing starts micro lagging constantly while the FPS stays the same. I use screen mirroring for the second HDMI output, and this is what seems to be causing the lag.

That's a common problem with GTX 970.
Don't use screen mirroring, when gaming.

Alright, thank you. The card is getting old anyway and should be replaced for smoother gameplay even without screen mirroring. So guess I need to save up money for a new GPU. The newer Nvidia cards in $300-600 range don't have this issue?
