Hello,
The Stable 144fps performance isn't quite as smooth as expected. It sometimes seems like I'm working on a 60hz display. The cursor movement on the desktop also feels less fluid. I've set my monitor to 144hz, but G-sync is disabled. I'm not sure what to do and would really appreciate your assistance...
I shared a screenshot of my phone capturing the cursor motion on the desktop here:

Ensure your monitor is configured at 144hz on Windows, and note that most instances will default to 60hz instead of adjusting the refresh rate to the maximum.

1000 hz. Mouse: Razer DeathAdder V2 Mini
However, I don't believe it's related to a mouse.

At first, I didn't want to tackle this hot pile of what it is.
But I need to check if there are any mouse traces. Does anyone else have mouse trails active? If not, should I try connecting another device or PC to that monitor and compare? Also, what about the other PC? Should I plug it into a different display and see what happens? As long as it isn't showing mouse trails, I assume the issue is with the monitor.

Sure, I'll do it. I'll let you know tomorrow. However, I want to mention that on my old monitor (60Hz), I also noticed a lack of smoothness.
