Question about High Refresh Rate Monitors and High Res Monitors on linux - eviltoast

Hello, I cant seem to find any upto date info on this topic and all the old threads seem to suggest that these features do not work well on linux.

I am looking to get a 144hz monitor that is at least 2k in resolution. I have an Nvidia graphics card and KDE Plasma. I want to run two monitors and the 2nd monitors is 60hz and 1080p. Would this cause issues? Is there anything I need to consider when looking for a monitor?

    No. I run 3x 1440p 144Hz monitors with KDE Plasma on an NVIDIA 1060 GTX, no issues at all.

      Let me tell you.

      I’m running a GTX 1050ti and I’m facing black screen and constant crashes in KDE Plasma when using Wayland.

      X11 is working fine.

      It might be a driver issue with nVidia on Wayland though.
