This answer will show you how to set up the Razer Ripsaw to work with a 144 Hz gaming monitor.

 

This is a Razer internally tested method to ensure full 144 Hz gaming monitor performance while allowing the Razer Ripsaw to stream at 60 Hz.

  1. Ensure your 144 Hz gaming monitor is plugged into your gaming computer via DVI, while your Razer Ripsaw is plugged in via HDMI.

  2. Go to your gaming computer's "Screen Resolution", and set your Razer Ripsaw to act as an extended desktop; that is Gaming monitor = "1" and Razer Ripsaw = "2".

  3. Download and open OBS on your gaming computer.

  4. Set up OBS to "1920 x 1080 – 60 FPS" in your Razer Ripsaw-virtual desktops, not your gaming monitor screen.

  5. Go to "Advanced Settings" and disable encoding during preview. The resulting stream to OBS will be at a very minimal footprint on your gaming computer.

  6. Add source of the game from Gaming Monitor 1 to OBS.

  7. Open OBS on your streaming computer, and add Razer Ripsaw source as "1920 x 1080 at 60 FPS".

  8. Drag OBS on the gaming computer across into the preview on the streaming computer. Your streaming computer is capturing the mirrored footage on the Razer Ripsaw-virtual extended desktop at 60 Hz, from your Gaming Monitor 1 running at 144 Hz.

  9. Ensure to run full-screen preview on the gaming computer for OBS.
