Please attach the Xorg.0.log file, but most likely the external monitor's
timing is what it specifies as preferred in its EDID.

Then you could switch off the internal display?

You could try manually setting the internal display's mode on the external
monitor (or the other way around, but internal panels are typically pickier).

There's no mechanism for that yet in general. However, if you manage to use the
same mode for both displays, you might be able to source both of them off the
same CRTC, in which case they should be perfectly synchronized.

For video, you can use the XV_CRTC attribute to choose which CRTC to sync to
(see the radeon manpage).

There's no such mechanism for 3D yet.
