Hey guys, I'm a gamer in need of a bit of assistance.
I've had my Acer Predator XB241H (x2) for a while now. Since having them hooked up to my PC, I've noticed a few issues that I'm pretty sure aren't standard. 1, the annoying black screen flickering and display input check that it does when I tab out from a fullscreen application. 2, I can no longer stream or record the games that I play. I use OBS (as most people do) and when I used to stream with a 60hz bunch of numbers HP monitor, I got smooth game play in both recording/stream playback AND gameplay. But now I have no instance of a smooth ride.
I'll use Rainbow Six: Siege for example, as it's one of my most recent games that I've been playing with these monitors. I play the game at full settings (discounting ultra textures) at upwards of 140fps. With G-sync enabled, I get smooth and responsive gameplay. But when I try to stream or even record, it goes out the window. It's somewhat stable at about 90fps (when streaming and recording at the same time) and stutters every 1-2 seconds. It makes it quite difficult to play. Even games like League of Legends, Terraria, Shellshock Live have this issue, and I have no clue why.
I'd love to have some support on this issue. I've tried to record the gameplay and see how it looks, and it's even worse when viewing the recording. It plays like a slideshow. I don't know if there's something flat out wrong with the monitors or if there's some setting that's causing a problem. But it's rather frustrating, and I've spent ages searching the web looking for a solution with nothing to show for it.
Please my people, help me.
