Laggy on my second monitor, normal on laptop screen

So, I'm recently switching to Linux from WSL2 and I'm enjoying my experience so far. But there's an annoying thing happening and I don't know if it is ZorinOS. My second monitor seems to be a little laggy and kind of blured. When I was using Windows and NixOS (tried a few days but got tired of so much config) it was just fine. I dont know wich informations I need to give so if someone could help me, I'd appreciate.

Hi and welcome. Is your second monitor connected directly to your notebook or via a docking station? Could we have some more details of your machine, cables used to connect to your second screen.

Beneath the Hardware Specs, could You check if Your System runs in Wayland or X11/Xorg in Settings>About? And how are Refresh Rate and Resolution set up? Is Fractional Scaling active?

I recently had a possibly similar issue when setting up a new Dell monitor connected with USB-C direct to my Dell laptop. At first it would only connect at 30Hz and felt laggy.

Setting USB-C Prioritization to 'High Resolution' resolved the issue. Previously it was set to 'High Data Speed'.
