Mixed refresh rates question (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone. I've read some posts before about Linux behaving poorly when using multiple monitors that have a different refresh rate.

Does anybody here know if X11 + AMDGPU + Mesa + Gnome handles this correctly? I'm thinking of getting a high refresh rate monitor (120hz+) while keeping my secondary at 60hz.

If you don't have to put up with Nvidia and there's nothing tying you to X11 I recommend making the jump to Wayland, a lot of these sorts of issues have been solved over there

I've tried wayland but it seems like games often don't work :(

I haven't had any problems with gaming in Wayland. Perhaps you haven't configured it properly, especially if it wasn't default installed on your system.
