I've been struggling with an issue with FFXIV where in Borderless / Windowed it causes my entire system to hang on other applications, browers to completely lag. For example, AMD software will go to "not responding", corsair Icue will go grey and mouse macros no longer work, browers will skip in 5-10 segments, twitch app will freeze and go not responding. It only does this when playing FFXIV in Borderless Windows, and Windowed. Fullscreen @ 144hz is not affected in FFXIV. Another issue is when I select Borderless Window, If I select 72 FPS (Refresh Rate 1/2) I get about 16 frames a second and it lags horribly bad. Windowed mode at 144hz works fine with no issues.

I want to play in Borderless since I usually browse the web and multitask while in game or doing other things. All my applications hanging is causing an issue.

Other games are completely unaffected, WoW, ESO, Warhammer, Apex, CoD, etc...
