Last ditch tech support attempt. I got a new MacBook. It lags on my external monitor every couple seconds. Happens with both USB-C and DisplayPort cables. This is a video of the lag:pic.twitter.com/QDDBCGJvS5

Here is me doing the same thing on my previous MacBook without lag. Spent ~4 hours on the phone with support yesterday and today, returned my first laptop for a different one today, same issue. Any ideas/help is appreciated!pic.twitter.com/gwwjrt5emZ

Yeah, about to go into my office to try. My suspicion is that it's monitor-specific

I can't really think of another answer... are the old laptop and the new laptop on the same OS version? It'd be weird if the monitor support code changed, but running out of ideas

No, that’s my other suspicion. Never upgraded to Catalina on the old machine, new machine came pre-installed with Catalina

I’m probably going to return the laptop and give up tbh the monitor is good
