My previous set up was x3 ASUS VH238H in eyefinity/extended desktop. I decided to upgrade my center monitor to a 144hz once because there are a good amount of games that I play that don't support eyefinity so I'm forced to only play on the center monitor while the other 2 are used to have monitor software, media player, etc up on the sides while gaming on the center. Figured I'd upgrade it so that I could have a better gaming experience and got myself a Asus VG248QE.
Now, for whatever reason when I have the VG248QE set to run at 144hz and the side monitors at 60hz youtube videos seem to lag a lot unless I set the center to run at 60hz instead of 144hz. The monitors aren't in eyefinity mode, but rather in extended desktop mode.I'm not sure how to explain it exactly other than lag, but the videos don't seem very fluid or smooth and stutter.. when the refresh rate is set to 60, the videos are butter smooth. Am I missing something here or is this normal or are there some other issues, video drivers etc? Video card is a XFX 290X. Games are running butter smooth with no isssues whatsoever, the main issue is with the YT videos.
Any ideas on what the issue could be?
