fps

[Jared121]

i have a 60hz monitor and i dont really want to use v-sync because it can cause the game to be slower and i also set my max fps to 60 and there is still screen tearing can someone help me

Which game are we talking about here? and are you able to get 60 fps 100% of the time?

[CostcoSamples]

setting max fps to 60 does not synchronize your GPU and monitor.  So yes, you will get tearing.  There are only two ways to avoid this: V-sync or use an adaptive sync monitor (gsync/freesync).

h1z1 and no it drops down to 45-55 fps when im in cities

well if its drawing 45 fps, its going to tear. the only way to eliminate tearing is to get your fps and your monitor to be identical. even a couple fps off in either direction and your tearing is going to be noticable. Some games have settings that can reduce the effect of tearing, but nothing can truely get rid of it other than syncing your games fps to your monitors Hz

try setting the max fps to the horizontal refresh rate of 67hz. for some reason that works for me

well games like overwatch theres really no tearing because i get 90 fps with a 60 hz monitor and there is no tearing so i think it might be the game

I would recommend just lowering your settings a tad in the other game so you can stay above 60 fps all the time. Your game will then limit it to 60 fps and that should be totally in sync with your monitor and eliminate all tearing.

no vsync. i used msi afterburners fram limiter (the rivatuner thing). how did you limit your fps before?

i have evga precision and i did it in the game file settings and so u set it to 67 on msi afterburner

[Cracklingice]

I just use the vsync.  no more tearing.  lose a fractional amount of performance - meh big deal.  I'm used to sub 30 gameplay so to me losing a few percent of 50ish is still an upgrade and hey no more nasty tears too!

evga precision has a fram limiter too. just press the right arrow until you reach it

what is your computer specs fam

[LogicalDrm]

Only thing in control panel that helps is setting power option to performance. Some other that can help, but usually are seen smoother gameplay are disabling Aero and other background processes.

[Jared121]

should i have v-sync on because when i have it off i get bad screen tearing and whenever i have it on it drops my fps down to 45 in h1z1

[pwn_intended]

V-sync is one of those things that you have to decide on yourself. Do you prefer no screen tearing with slightly higher input lag and some frame drops, or do you want the higher FPS and lower lag but living with screen tearing?

 

Just outta curiosity, what framerates are you getting with v-sync disabled?
