Hello all-

I have an AOC 24" monitor as my main display I also want to hook up my old monitor a 19" samsung. I have the AOC hooked up with an HDMI cable and the 19" with a DVI.
Running 11.2 ccc. Both monitors are up and when I play Rift on my main display and go over to the other to browse the web I get lots of lag in my game goes down to about 16fps.
Not sure why this happens.
This is my 1st radeon card and I am really happy I got it. I just want to be able to run 2 monitors if not no big deal.

Thanks for your time.

Set "Fullscreen Windowed" in preferences. That should address your issue when the focus app isn't the game.

Set it to fullscreen windowed and it still gets all laggy.
