Re: What's the best FPS limiter these days?

The capper that's built-in into the nvidia driver and configurable through inspector is completely broken. Having different desired outcomes does not mean that it is "broken" or "written by idiots". If your framerate cap is not in sync with the refresh rate, then you're going to get stuttering. No,...

Re: Looking for good 24' 120-144hz for CS:GO only

I got a 27" 144Hz for CS:GO. Bigger image, easier aiming at heads ;-)

Re: Variable Frame Blanking(Variable BFI)

Some people have succeeded in "glitching out" monitors to do gsync+ulmb simultaneously:

Re: Variable Frame Blanking(Variable BFI)

That would just make the screen blink as if your backlight was broken. BFI needs to be repeating at the same rate. Otherwise, it's perceived as blinking. Extremely unpleasant to look at. I experimented with this using vapoursynth and did uneven BFI. It's unbearable. If your black frames don't come a...

Re: So it looks like I've got 185Hz at 1920x1080!

240Hz or not worth it :mrgreen: Only half kidding. 240Hz is the only refresh rate next to 120Hz that can accurately reproduce 24/30/60 FPS content. The thing is, all of the content I watch (except youtube of course) is with SVP (Smooth Video Project) which interpolates video to a higher framerate s...

Re: What's the best FPS limiter these days?

The best one is RTSS (comes with Afterburner), hands down. The capper that's built-in into the nvidia driver and configurable through inspector is completely broken. It doesn't even cap to what you set it to if you use vsync. To eliminate input lag, I use 0.05hz more in my modes (60.05, 85.05, 90.05...

Re: Is 1440p "wow!" compared to 1080p in games?

Yes. It's quite "wow" indeed, since 1440p is almost double the resolution of 1080. 77% higher to be precise. Or, in other words, 1080p is only 56% of 1440p. Of course that also means that frame rates are going to suffer greatly too. A good 30% to 45% performance drop is common (if you get 80FPS in 1...

Re: Does blur reduction remove blur if FPS < Hz??

Any frame rate that isn't an *exact* multiple of the refresh rate is gonna stutter. It's mathematically impossible for it not to stutter. VSync on/off doesn't matter. It's just that with vsync off, only a part of the screen will stutter (the upper part that still holds the old frame) while with vsyn...

Re: Does blur reduction remove blur if FPS < Hz??

Well, depends. For games with low FPS where it's all over the place (sometimes 30, sometimes 45 and anywhere in between, Mafia 3 anyone?) G-Sync/Freesync make more sense. It's not just about tearing. Variable refresh rate helps a lot with stutter. Tearing is only one part of these sync technologies....
