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?

    I don’t know if it can help, but…

    I’m running Fedora 38, Stock GNOME and an RX 6600. I had no issues whatsoever with my dual monitor setup.

    The main one is 1440p, 165Hz. It worked out of the box, even though, I did have to select the refresh rate manually in settings (like in any other OS).

    The secondary monitor is 1080p, 60Hz. Also works fine.

    Even though, I did notice that on X11, the cursor seems to move at 165Hz, but the windows and content itself do not. I usually always use Wayland, that works perfectly for me.
