Also, I use two monitors with different refresh rates on Mint / Cinnamon / Xorg and it's more than fine. I think you only need Wayland for variable refresh rate. But two static refresh rates seem to work just fine on X.

Damn, my camouflage didn't work.

They are actually running in different refresh rates? The default is to cap the better monitor in the lower refresh rate. If I accept that it is fine to me as well. If I try to force different refresh rates on kwin , my games run with so much tearing, even with vsync on.

I honestly wouldn't know. One is a 60 Hz TV and the other a 75 Hz office monitor. My son loves to play steam games on the monitor. The graphic configuration tool says the monitors are at that frequency and I can see other frequencies they could operate.

I don't know how to check the actual refresh rate though.

No but if you can't tell they are both working at the same rate it must work well enough for you not to care.
