gnome settings wrong refresh rate in mirror monitors

Hi everybody!
I'm trying to solve this problem since a while but i cannot seem able to find any documentation regarding this.

When i set up mirror monitor in gnome settings, it goes on an sub optimal frequency and my main monitor flickers.
If i set up with xrandr it's perfect.

I don't know how to make this change permanent.

i would like to:
A) find the right xsettings ovverride command in dconf to do this
B) run the xrandr command on gnome startup (i tried but gnome seems to load its settings after my command, reverting it back)
C) i'm opened to other solutions you can come up with!

xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --auto --output HDMI-0 --auto

gives this
