why adaptaive v sync and not just v sync?

what are de pro/cons of V sync and adaptive v sync (NVidia technology)

 

adaptive v sync will destroy the slutering, ghosting  and other tearing?

Adaptive V-Sync just means it automatically turns on V-Sync when your framerate is higher than your monitor's refresh rate, and turn it off when it's below. There's no difference in the actual operation of it.

There are more forms of vsync available to you, of which includes fast vsync, and half refresh rate vsync.

 

Fast vsync is great where you have excess frame rates on a game, such as cs:go where you are hitting 240 frames on a 60hz/144hz monitor. It helps you reduced latency and frame time allowing you to enjoy smoother gameplay even with vsync on, however this is only possible if you go above you screen's refresh rate in fps.

 

Adaptive does abit of both, during the time your fps goes below your screen's refresh rate or gets low it turns off vsync, or when you have high framerates it turns vsync on.

 

If i am not wrong, if the fps you get in a game greatly exceeds the refresh rate of the monitor, adaptive vsync automatically works like fast vsync itself.

In some games, adaptive vsync will kick in earlier and limit at half the monitor's refresh rate. Can be annoying sometimes when a sudden frame rate occurs.
