Hi,
i’m a beginner with garuda, i just installed heroic launcher to play some games and i have an issue : i’m capped at 60 fps. My screen is 144hz so i would like to have that many fps.
I’m using i3 as DE.
Here are the specs of my computer :

Monitor 2 is 60hz. Make sure you aren’t mirroring displays.
Sometimes even if you aren’t mirroring displays, some wine/proton games get confused where to grab refresh data from. As a work around, I usually temporarily disable the other monitor.

When i disable the Vsync, fps are going up to 144.
I also disabled the second screen, but no changes

What game(s) are we talking about? there is quite the vastness of different frame rate settings. Some even have bugs in their frame rate settings.
I was testing with rocketleague

So, is there any other issues for games or are things resolved now?
ok, i found a way to resolve the issue : with the nvidia-settings, i put the right settings and the vsync came back to 144hz
Thanks to all of you for your help !!
