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?

    My laptop has a 2560x1440, 165Hz monitor built in. I am using opensuse tumbleweed with plasma. When I attach a 1920x1080, 60Hz external monitor through my kwm switch, I have no issues. It has an Nvidia GPU, but I believe plasma is running on the integrated GPU. I don’t know if I have tried gaming or anything that uses the Nvidia GPU while using the external monitor. I mainly use the second monitor for coding.
