Anyone had the same problem in the past or have a solution ? feel free to ask me for more info in case I didn't explained enough

Answer 1

I had the same problem, and I found a solution that you can have the hardware acceleration still activated and move the AVD between monitors.

Here's how I did it:

1. Start the AVD.
2. Go to Extended Controls (the last button on the control strip, with the 3 dots) > Settings > Advanced
3. Change the "OpenGL ES renderer" to "ANGLE (D3D11)"
4. Restart the AVD.

And there you go.
