monitor flickering/ghosting after altering monitor refresh rate from hyprland.conf #7874

Description

everything was working fine, until i wanted to change refresh rate from 60 to 165, then it started flickering like crazy, then i tried to switch back but found out the monitor name was also different from hyprctl monitors, it was always eDP-1 but there it showed eDP-2 then turned back to preferred and auto, the flickering stopped but the ghosting and burn in persisted even with my dual boot into different os. maybe its related to me using discrete(nvidia) graphics instead of dynamic (amd/nvidia). 240922_01h08m07s_screenshot

How to reproduce

change monitor to a higher refresh rate while having dynamic mode on for graphics meaning uses both dgpu/igpu.

image another weird thing is now it doesnt even show me the choice of 165hz in hyprctl monitors, nor is this my monitors id.
