Do low FPS games tear in high refresh rate monitors?

sparkchomp

I am just curious, how would games that output aground 60 FPS look in 360 hz or 240 hz monitor WITHOUt gsync/free sync. 
 

would there be tearing or stuttersif vsync was enabled?

The usual tearing and stuff no amount of vsync is gonna fix that. If you don't output at the exact refresh rate of your monitor you have tearing basically.

so if you have a 60 hertz monitor and a comuter with GPU hardware from the last 5 years then try playing portal with the lowest settings and disable V-sync, and then go into the gamd and look lef and right quickly and youll see what tearing looks like. (i have a laptop 1650 and I got the tearing in the highest settings in portal so the settings may not really mater)

All games tear regardless of frame rate if a sync technology isnt active.
