Microstutter with Multimonitor

I'm experiencing periodic microstutter (around 1ms every 5s) when using 2 monitors on Xorg with a AMD GPU. At first I thought it's a vsync issue, so I disabled it and disabled AMD FreeSync on both monitors. This helped a bit. Then I put both monitors at 120hz. This also helped a bit. But the only way to get rid of the microstutter is to turn off one of the monitors.

I have no idea what else could cause the problem.

Most certainly not.

Please post your Xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General and the output of "xrandr --verbose"
Then, what kind of session (and more importantly: compositor?) do you run?
Ultimately see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Variab … figuration
