Re: VSYNC ON Motion Fluidity: double vs triple buffering

(A) Given enough GPU power, double buffered is smoother than triple buffered. (completely framedrop-free VSYNC ON) (B) Given insufficient GPU power, triple buffered is smoother than double buffered. Perfect straight lines in FCAT is only possible with double-buffered VSYNC ON + overkill GPU + older...
