    Im not an expert and i don't know if this will help you, but if you have a nvidia, have you checked the nvidia 3d setting below is not set to auto?

    Configure Surround, Physx

    If it is, try setting it to your "nvidia gforce gtx/rtx" instead.

    Works really well putting the video load onto the gpu, taking it away from the cpu. Esp good if you have 2 monitors going.

    Got this tip from  @E9ine_AC
