  1. Hey guys, this is my first ever post on linustechtips forums and its a question in relation to the phenomenon of screen tearing. Now i understand that screen tearing occurs when your GPU outputs more FPS then your monitors refresh rate, causing the monitor to split frames (which is where we see the tear), I understand how V-sync, adaptive V-sync and G-sync work, but theres one thing that i have yet to find a clear answer to. After scrolling through many tech forums, googling and general research i still am trying to answer this one question. This is probably a stupid question but i need to know the answer so i buy the right monitor for my next purchase. So here it is: (Without Vsync turned on) say I have a 144HZ moitor(no G-sync) and i am achieving something like 80FPS in game. Does screen tearing/stutter still occur or does the monitor simply wait for the next frame? Any help or knowledge would be appreciated.
