The closest thing to a reset that GNOME has is:

1. rm ~/.config/monitors.xml
2. Log in again.

In theory that can happen due to different ports or cables measuring
different bandwidth. The kernel driver measures the currently available
bandwidth in order to limit the set of modes offered. So it sounds like
you might have a suboptimal connection on one of the monitors.

There is no best practices doc for Nvidia multimonitor. And I can say
that being the engineer who has overseen Nvidia support for the last few
years. All I can say is we're making it better in each release.

The change in 24.10 I mentioned is also in the release notes:
