Have had a gsync monitor for a while, and would notice that on occasion my games would load with super low FPS. Would have to restart (a few times, sometimes) to get it to back to normal. Wasn't until I started playing overwatch when it started happening ALL the time, and I realized (assumed) it was a function of the refresh rate on the monitor starting off at 30hz (as that's what my fps would always show). The display properties showed the monitor already at 144hz when this happened, but I found if I set it to something else like the 120hz option then set it back to 144hz it'd revert to how it should be.
Still, this is something that I have to do literally every day which is obnoxious (though strangely enough if I fix it like that at the start of the day I don't have to redo it if I reboot the same day). Thought it might be fixed with since I just got a 1080 and did a clean driver install but I'm still having issues. I also thought it might have something to do with me using a dual monitor setup but after the 1080 install I've only been on the one monitor and it's still the same thing.
Any suggestions? thanks
