This is a weird gsync behavior that can be caused by programs like Skype for Business or Discord that render using directX. You need to disable gsync for those applications using nvidia control panel.

I'm looking for something new in a monitor myself. Mostly for work, with some gaming (Diablo, FPS maybe, random other games). I have a 26" DoubleSight from 2008. Wondering what to do to upgrade. Pair it with another 26", or is a 34" curved like this overkill? Worth it? Good for work? (Excel, Word, working with images/light graphic design)
With G Synch it's 1300 bucks. I really dont think I need G Synch though

Either get a 24" 1080p or 27" or 1440p 144hz monitor. If your computer can handle 60FPS for all games you play, GSync/FreeSync is not needed, but I'd be lying if it ain't sweet having adaptive sync though =P. I was a non believer until I tried.

I never found a specific program option for the control panel. But I basically forced it in windows and it solved my problem. It was just odd how one game only had the problem and only when windowed and the currently active window.

I really want a new monitor but these prices are a bit steep still. I think my OC'd Qnix will work just fine until these prices are more reasonable, I wonder how long it will take thou.

Dumbass question. I want to hook a few 60hz monitors up to my 1070. I think the only ports I have left are 4x display ports (I used the one DVI for my 144hz).
Do display port to DVI adapters work reasonably well for what I need? Since it's 60HZ I don't really care about it affecting refresh rate

Yeah, but make sure to get "active" adapters depending on the specs for that vid card. A lot of times if you get the cheapo passive adapters monitors don't wake from sleep properly, won't get signal, etc.

Is there an added benefit? I already have the DVI cable hooked up for it with no displayport cables

tl;dr LOLZ GOT AN EMPTY BOX FROM ORIGIN PC TODAY!
True story:
I woke up at 9:00AM this morning and saw a text message from my dad at 7:30AM saying, "UPS is looking for you to deliver a big crate.", and I'm like WTF!?
I then got a call at 9:01AM from UPS asking me where they needed to deliver the giant ass crate. So, I tell them my address and the dude tells me, in a serious huff, "Awkay, we'll git eet rescheduled".
I then call him back around 11:00AM and ask, "Uh, so you guys called me today and told me you'd be delivering a package to me. Do I need to be at my house to receive it?" And he replies, "Yeah, we'll be delivering it some time between 8AM and 8PM and you have to sign for it."
I'm like WTF!?, "So, am I supposed to sit at home all day waiting for this package to arrive?", to which he responds, "IDC what you do bro."
Long MF'ing story short, I go to the UPS place to pick up the box (with a friend bc the crate won't fit in my go cart of a car). Well, the box is empty...
W-T-F?

Would be awesome if someone stole it. Rofl!
I once got lazy back in the day and ordered a pimped out Alienware machine (back when they were their own company before Dell). They shipped 2 boxes; 1 with the monitor, the other with the PC. Needless to say, the PC never arrived. I took it as a sign and simply took the refund and built my own. Someone nabbed a baller PC for its time!
