Doesn't work as well as V-Sync? In some games it most certainly does.

So there we go, the lack of tearing and the smoothness of fluctuating fps is amazing but doesnt work aswell as vsync so take from that what you will anyone who google searches :)
REALLY?! What games? And at what points?

MxOAgentJohnson, don't happen to have a copy of Crysis 3 do you? Reason I ask is because I found this to work pretty well with g-sync apart from the one level "Welcome to the Jungle", doesn't matter what the frame rate is it stutters and hitches like crazy but every other level is perfectly smooth.
