144hz vsync

[MRob11]

If I am getting a 144hz monitor but can not stay at or above 144 FPS should I use v sync

No. Vsync causes stuttering and the real option is to lower your settings, or get a monitor with freesync or g sync

Vsync only show its benefits when fps is larger than refresh rate, so you should just turn it off.

You're the one who bought the monitor, you should know. I looked and it doesn't look like it does though. Sounds like you didn't make the best purchase

What @fasauceome told me when I asked kinda the same question, is that if you get an fps lower than 144, but is consistent (example: it hovers at 100 and stays there) then it should stay somewhat smooth. I get less than 144fps with my 144hz monitor but it still stays fairly smooth because my fps is consistent.

no guarantees, depends on your monitor and your eyes

Ok thank you. Do you think you could look at my last post and give advice ?

Vsync introduces input lag, and caps your framerate, but doesn't cause stuttering except in rare cases.

Oops. I didn't know about the input lag but thats good to know.
