Display on second corrupts itself sometimes

I have a two monitor setup, first one (primary) is 2560x1440, second is 1920x1080, using xrandr and xmonad, both connected over DP. When I use Chrome on the second screen, many times the screen will corrupt (display an old frame, random translations, etc), and I have to float/sink the screen to get it to redraw properly. Other times when I type text into the browser the screen will not update so I cannot see what I am typing. This does not happen on the first screen, but if I have a corrupted terminal and I swap it over to the first display, sometimes that remains corrupted too. I don't know if it's a hardware issue (I'm getting an HDMI cable soon to check if it is), but in the meantime, can anyone offer any advice?

Edit:

So changing the graphics acceleration from SNA to UXA fixed it. Has anyone else had problem with a dual headed setup running SNA, and how have you dealt with it?
