Mouse Lagging on external display

I have a 2021 macbook pro with the M1 Max chip.

I had it initially hooked up to 2 thunderbolt displays.

I added a third display. For the third display i'm using a 43" samsung frame TV.

when i move my mouse to the new third monitor it lags quite a bit. Does flow smoothly like it does on the other two displays.

When i go into the display settings on the mac it shows that third(samsung) display at 30HZ.

There is no option for anything higher.

Wondering if anyone can suggest a fix for this so that the mouse moves smoothly on that third display?

Hi Ghomenick,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities. We understand that there are some performance and resolution issues on your Samsung display.

Is there another cable or adapter that you can try? That will help to rule out issues with the connection. Next, try the guidance in If your external display isn't detected or appears blurry on your Mac. You should be able to use those steps to change the resolution of your external display.

Have a great day!
