Frame tear

[Trik'Stari]

Ok so I really want to figure this out.

 

I am currently using a sony bravia LCD TV as an monitor, according to the menu settings on the tv itself, it runs at only "60hz", and even with Vsync and triple buffering "forced" on with Nvidia control center, I still am getting a rather annoying amount of frame tear (ripping, whatever its called lol).

 

I've got a GTX660, am using a single HDMI cable, running at 1920x1080 (whiich is correct for this tv). I'm not sure what else to include. I've got a 750 watt power supply which I've been told is more than I need. I've got everything plugged up right as far as I know (gpu 6 pin cable etc).

 

So what gives? would I even notice a different with an actual purpose built "monitor" at the same framerate?

Have you got V-sync or adaptive V-sync enabled in the Nvidia control panel?

 

Nvm

ARe you getting a constant 60fps while playing the games?

I honestly don't know lol. I run bf4 on about medium high. Other things like SWTOR I can run on ultra no problem without tearing (unless during a raid lol, things get a little crazy) or at least in swtor or ESO it's not quite as noticable

 

However in games like bf4, metro last light (which I know has really good graphics if you can turn em up, which I have), and skyrim I can crank things up to ultra, but it's so choppy that it just isn't playable.

 

Oh and my gpu is an EVGA GTX660 FTW edition (the one with 2 fans). 2 gigs vram etc.

 

I know one of my probable bottlenecks is my fm2 processor and mobo (which only has pcie2.0). but would that cause screen tearing?

any ideas anyone?
