GSYNC works much better in surround mode. (3 monitor surround).
Monitors running at different framerates will interfere with each other. The problem is common when mixing 60Hz monitors with a Better-Than-60Hz monitor.
This is why, for competitive gameplay, I recommend temporarily disabling the extra monitors (via Control Panel) -- or entirely disconnecting temporarily -- while playing a good competitive game of CS:GO -- I've seen microstutters and lag even inject themselves into VSYNC OFF (not just GSYNC) because of a second 60Hz monitor connected.
Divergent refresh rates & divergent modes (e.g. one GSYNC mode, one non-GSYNC mode) are a big no-no for stutters/fluidity/lag.
For minimal lag and minimal stutters, you want surround mode from a single GPU -- e.g. GTX 1080 Ti on three 144Hz GSYNC monitors running in surround mode.
I recommend DisplayFusion software for one click display profile switching.
Click -- you're now in eSports single monitor mode
Click -- you're now in 3-multimonitor mode
Click -- you're now in 2-monitor presentation mode
etc.
(I am a software developer. I need my multiple monitors too!)
So is there a way to get rid of flickering?

Re: So is there a way to get rid of flickering?
Are you saying 3 monitors work better then 2 when using G-Sync?
I'm currently running 3 monitors, 2 of which are 60hz and i'm not having any issue with G-Sync not working on windows 10. Often my playback of videos on the other monitor will play back at lower frame rates when i drop my fps to 20, 8, 4 for example. (These are purposeful fps abuse and not stutters)
