I recently set up my two monitors with Display Port cables so I could run games at 144hz. When I was playing Team Fortress 2 with my old DVI cables, I was able to max out the game at 300 fps. But now, I can barely run at 90 fps even with reduced settings.
Part list:
i5-4670k (with Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus)
MSI GTX 970
16 gigs of RAM
Asus Z97-A motherboard
Two ASUS VG248GE's
Why am I getting such a low frame rate now?

I should specify that only one monitor is running the game, the other is simply for temps, or monitoring a skype call.
And I run the game at 1920x1080, or 1080p.
