PG278QR Refresh issue?

So i have the PG278QR and randomly when i open programs my pc lags and my mouse cursor turns into this https://imgur.com/HIooCrs
The way i fix it every time is by lowering my refresh rate and then changing it back. Keep in mind that its not my pc being overloaded as i have checked the task manager while opening these programs and they never come close to my cpu, ram, hd load

things i have done to try to fix it:

1. turn off refresh overclock
2. update drivers
3. reset pc and change cables


I know its the monitor because I have a 2nd monitor that never gets this issue when i use it alone. I have tested my monitors in every way PG278QR alone, PG278QR with my 2nd monitor, 2nd monitor alone etc and the only way i dont get the issue is if my PG278QR is not connected. This started happening maybe 1-2 months ago and i've finally just had it with this issue.

any help would be great thank you.
