Hello, I'm currently satisfied with the components and final configuration, yet I sometimes wonder if it's not reaching its full potential. I'll elaborate based on the specifications:

XFX Speedster MERC310 7900 XTX
AMD R7 7800X3D
(2x16) 32 GB TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB 6000MHz CL30 RAM
ASRock X670E PRO RS ATX
MSI MAG CoreLiquid E360 Liquid Cooler
EVGA B5 850W
1x WD SN805x
4x WD SN770
Corsair 3500X Case
10x Case fans

I typically play games at 4K and occasionally lower them to 1440p. My main monitor is an MSI G321CU 32" curved 16:9 gaming display with 4K, 144Hz, 1ms, 3840 x 2160 resolution, FreeSync. I also use two 1080p monitors for a three-monitor setup. I haven't made major changes to the system, but keeping drivers updated is important. I aim to reduce startup and background tasks to improve performance. I'm seeking advice or suggestions since some games don’t run as expected, though I still expect high performance from my setup. Temperatures remain stable, with no overheating issues.

It generally depends on how well the game is optimized for Radeon GPUs versus Nvidia GPUs. Some titles are better suited for one type of GPU than the other, based on developer decisions or agreements made during development. You have little control over this issue. In general, most games are more optimized for Nvidia GPUs than Radeon GPUs. If you wish to improve performance, consider upgrading to a Nvidia GPU, such as an RTX 5090 paired with a suitable power supply.

No, not all monitors have the same refresh rate.

They don't match. I have an MSI 32-inch 144Hz 4K monitor, an LG 144Hz 27-inch 1080p one, and a Samsung 32-inch 75Hz display.

That's a valid observation, but the situation remains unchanged even when considering AMD or Nvidia optimizations. Additionally, it appears to occur irrespective of whether the title is optimized for AMD or Nvidia, and I believe there might be room for improved overall productivity beyond just gaming.

Are you attempting to utilize multiple monitors at once?

I've been using three monitors for about four years across various configurations, with the 4K added just last year to better utilize my XTX setup.

It's demanding for almost any GPU!
