Hi, i had this problem for some time already and i decided i want to fix it already.
I have 3 monitor setup + television connected to PC, 2 cheap BenQ monitors, 1 gaming monitor and old Samsung TV.
Problem is pretty known as i learned, when playing a game in borderless/window and having any motion on other monitors it drops my gaming monitor to 60hz. This was supposed to be fixed in W10 Fall Creator's Update but it didn't for me. It's supposed to be some W10 v-sync from dwm.exe that is making your monitors refresh rate sync to the lowest one
Many people said it fixed it for them and they have a G-Sync monitor, so i bought ASUS ROG PG279Q and turned G-Sync on and G-Sync for windowed applications. It didn't work.
Then I've got idea that 2nd GPU for those 60hz monitors must fix it. I got a GTX 1050 for pretty cheap, connected those 2 BenQ monitors and the TV to it, just to find out it didn't help at all, still same problem.
Right now i have the ASUS monitor plugged in my GTX 1080, all other monitors to GTX 1050 and my question is. Is there some settings in Nvidia Control Panel or somewhere in bios which makes it working?
Only fix i found is having the game in fullscreen, which is bad for me as I have very little hand movement due to a disability and i need to be able to get to my On-screen keayboard for typing in chat etc.
PC SPECS :
GTX 1080 + GTX 1050
i7-6800K
16gb DDR4 RAM
750W PSU
MSI X99A Gaming 7 Motherboard
ROG PG279Q connected with DisplayPort to GTX 1080
SAMSUNG TV connected with HDMI to GTX 1050
BenQ GL2760 connected with DVI to GTX 1050
BenQ GW2255 connected with DVI to DisplayPort adapter to GTX 1050
Thank you for any help
