[Gnome/Nvidia] 144hz monitor in gnome 3.16

linux 4.0.7-2
nvidia 352.21-2
gnome-shell 3.16.3-1
dual monitors 1x 60hz 1x 144hz both 1080p

By default gnome puts both at 60hz but through the use of "xrandr --output DVI-D-0 --mode 1920x1080 --rate 144" it sets the 144hz one at that. Although the problem is that it appears that only the cursor is actually being updated at 144hz and not the windows/gnome-shell themselves, which is rather annoying. I'm not sure where to go from here as I was not able to find anything related to this from my searches. I did not have this problem on KDE or XFCE but is was present on Cinnamon as well. To me it seems like the compositor isn't syncing to the 144hz monitor but I'm at a loss at how to change that in gnome.
