Recently built my computer and i am having trouble with "screen tearing" i think but not sure. I can run gpu test and videos and it run so smooth its perfect. But when i play games with my fps locked at the refresh rate of my monitor "144" i get screen tearing similiartites on my screen. But i fi up the fps it goes away. This happens on my onbard and gpu graphics. I have replaced my psu, motherboard so far. Is it the ram that can be causing this?

Sounds like you were using Vsync and thats exactly why you supposed to keep Vsync off if possible due to the screen tearing that can result.

um i dont think so my old computer didnt even do that and now i have a asus 1070 strix and viii hero. It shouldnt do that 

 

Do you have G-Sync? And you said you had 144Hz... Assuming you had a 60Hz monitor before you are not used to 144hz. The higher the refresh rate the more the screen tear. :)

Yes that is how it works.
