Good evening,

I currently have a XB271HU gaming monitor and I want a second monitor to go with it to look at chat from twitch, and to browse the internet.

I’ve read contradicting things such as not supposed to have different resolution as well as different refresh rate. I want a cheap second monitor because really just using it for browsing and reading chat.

I just want to know if from my XB271HU
2k monitor that overclocks to 165hz if I would have any issues to have a 1080 monitor with 60hz as my second monitor. Thanks for all your help!

Also if there would be any pros or cons to alternative solutions.

Thanks a bunch for the prompt response. My GPU is a 1080ti so I would assume I’m good to go. And well that makes sense about the DPI, didn’t think about that but I guess it would be just fine because I play at a low DPI for my games and I do like my mouse to be a little bit quicker when browsing.

so since I’ve never used a second monitor before. Would I be able to play games on full screen and how would I scroll to other monitor? Would it ever go to second monitor when playing when accidentally moving mouse too far to the right or left depending where second monitor is?
