I recently acquired a brand-new configuration (see details below). After installing a few titles – World of Warcraft and Rainbow Six Siege, for instance – I experienced a problem. My display is an MSI Optix G27C2 with a refresh rate of 144Hz. Consequently, I initially configured the adapter to take advantage of this higher refresh rate and adjusted it within each game. Unfortunately, every title I attempted became noticeably choppy and unresponsive. However, reverting to a 60Hz setting for both the adapter and the games resulted in significantly improved performance – it was vastly better than what I observed at 144Hz. Interestingly, this issue persisted even with VSync enabled.

I’ve attempted troubleshooting by reinstalling both my current and previous graphics drivers and ensuring all system components were updated. Do you have any suggestions?

(System Specifications –
Intel Core i9 9900K Processor
ASUS ROG Maximus XI Code Motherboard
be quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 1200W Power Supply
Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro CMW32GX4M4C3200C16 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4
MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio 11GB)

Seriously, all of that for 1080p? That’s absurd…

Have you checked to see if G-Sync is activated in your NVIDIA settings?

Just a heads up: you could have saved more than $1500 and still achieved the same results.

I noticed a remarkably identical remark appeared in several locations, and I’m certainly aware that the display is aging; my goal is to upgrade to a 4K 120Hz monitor soon. It’s currently being used as a leftover from my previous setup, and I assure you of that. Adjusting it to utilize adaptive sync has resolved all previous issues.
