Hello.

So yesterday I setup my streaming pc with my gaming pc, everything went well.

But then today I bought a displayport to hdmi adapter, so I could use my second monitor again on my gaming pc. After that I get ridiculous screen tearing, so I tried to dc my 2nd gaming monitor and problem gone.

My main monitor got 144hz and 2nd monitor got only 60hz, my main monitor is using DVI, and capture card hdmi if that matters.

Is it possible to use 2 monitors with different hz like this or do I need to get another 144hz monitor? Since Im short on money any other solution would be great, except lowering my hz on my main monitor.

I use a avermedia c985 capture card & stream at 720p 60fps using a gtx 980 graphics card on my main monitor.

You can see the screen tearing here: http://www.twitch.tv/widdz/v/52341568

TLDR: No screen tearing when I only use 1 monitor (144hz) on gaming pc, as soon as I connect my 2nd montior (60hz) the screen tearing appears. Main monitor with DVI, 2nd monitor with hdmi cable in to a displayport-hdmi adapater.

Best regards - widdz

EDIT: It works when I have the main monitor on 60hz however, I really wanna use 120 or 144hz on my gaming monitor with a 2nd monitor attached.
