FPS Capped at 60

Hey guys! My GTX 980 Ti is capping everything at 60fps. People are saying that it's because of my 60 Hz monitor, and vsync being on. Vsync is turned off, I did it manually in the control panel. It's still capped at 60fps. It did the exact same thing when I had my GTX 970. I can not figure out what it is. Can anybody please help me? And it isn't a certain game, it's capped at 60fps all the time. Thanks- Jordan :)

Look at the Nvidia control panel. See if theres an automatic V-Sync there.

Or, look in the game settings.

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

There are 2 Ways to enable VSync. In the Game or in the Controll Panel.

A 60 Hz monitor can not display more then 60fps so there is no reason to turn V-sync off

Vsync is turned off in the control panel and so is the game.

Is it dipping below 60fps constantly?

if not i wouldn't complain not like you can display over 60 anyway.

I need to benchmark it though.

Of course it can.

Bold is true, normal isn't.

V-Sync is guilty of some input lags. So it's better to be turned off until really necessary.

 

 

I need to benchmark it though.

Wait hold on.

You don't even know your FPS?
