How to Fast sync???

[lhkplayer]

graphic tearing has been eating me for my entire life, 

I know this tech is out, does anyone has already been using it?

please tell me how could I get it, because I couldn't find anything on my control panel. Thanks!

System and monitor specs?

Ehhh, Fast Sync is a part of Pascal. This means that the tech is NOT out and won't be until 27 May.

Do you mean freesync/gsync? Just making sure you understand what you are looking for.

Fast sync is a new type of Vsync from nvidia, it is basically vsync without the FPS cap or massive input latency.

 

In regards to OP.

 

#1 FastSync works on pretty much any Nvidia card

#2 FastSync is done in the driver software but isn't in the current driver, so you'll have to wait until Nvidia releases a new Driver with the Feature included.

I imagine this will be around the time the official GTX 1080 driver is out, or later on if we're unlucky.

So.....gysnc and freesync? That's what it sounds like to me. Maybe I should rewatch the presentation.

I know what it is. I guess I was just making sure the OP was aware that there are other solutions out now that resolve screen tearing.

Gsync is completely different to fast sync, they share some things, but in the end, they have quite different pros and cons, for instance, if you let gsync just run at it's maximum framerate (ie 144) you'll created what Tom Peterson was calling "backpressure", which means massive input latency, fast sync doesn't have this issue, making it ideal for games where you really need 200 FPS atleast, such as CSGO.

 

personally, I'm hyped as fuck for Fastsync, I've been wanting this sort of technology to become a thing for ages.
