Hi All,

First time poster so apologies if I don't get all the info in here that is required.

As per the thread title, when I first boot up my computer and go into any game, I experience lower fps (around 15-20). When I turn my Dell S2716DG monitor off and on again, the issue is rectified.

I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this issue and found a permanent fix? I have my work around for now, but for some games I have to restart the game after because the display reconnecting makes the game bug out.

Extra info that I feel may be important:

-I am running on a 1080 GTX Founder edition
-I have a second monitor (an old tft panel connected via DVI)
-I am running my games using G-Sync as that was the intended use for the monitor
-My Nvidia Drivers are up to date.

Thank you in advance for any help / suggestions.

Are you running the game in windowed mode? I think I've had this problem in the past with games in windowed mode, along with a dual monitor. I never had to troubleshoot too much, though, as the problem seemed to go away.
Just a though. Good luck.
