Thats OK!
I also now have an XB252Q in my possession so I am able to do ULMB+GSYNC too, I had known...
But it is always good to hear user success reports!

Which technique should I use?Chief Blur Buster wrote:Yes, the ULMB+GSYNC trick should work with that.
Remember, the combined ULMB+GSYNC trick works best only over a tight framerate fluctuation range (e.g. 75Hz-120Hz, or 75Hz-144Hz).

Got a bit overenthusiastic there hahaChief Blur Buster wrote:Thats OK!

On-topic:
I'm trying to mess around with the most stable FPS-cap I can find (RTSS so far) combined with setting High Performance windows mode (stabilizes framerate caps for some reason... learnt that from Battle(non)sense on YouTube) for erhh... SyncStrobe (GStrobe? G-ULMB?) mode.
What do you guys use it for mostly at the moment? I've used it as an easy (but flickery) 60-85hz strobing mode mostly so far and it takes some getting used to but man... This is quite something.

Re: G-Sync and ULMB at the same time is in fact possible!
The main fault is that you need a pretty stable fps or else you're going to have problem. I wish i could have it so ULMB will turn off if it drops below 90 fps.
I haven't really tried with Emulators but i bet it would be super dope

Re: G-Sync and ULMB at the same time is in fact possible!
I think ULMB 60 Hz is more ideal for emulators than the ULMB+GSYNC hack, unless the emulator framepacing is nearly microsecond-accurate.
Also, I'm corresponding with a few emulator authors to add beam-racing capability (sync between emulator raster & realworld raster), via a new unique lagless VSYNC ON mode a small group of us has successfully come up with (beam-raced tearingless VSYNC OFF)

Re: G-Sync and ULMB at the same time is in fact possible!
I see people talk about using only 120hz or 144hz for this hack.
But what about 100 or 85hz? Are their any cons to that? Besides the flicker.
BTW: I have the Dell S2417DG and the +5 VT doesn't work for me anymore (ulmb gets greyed out in the osd). It did a year ago which is odd.

Re: G-Sync and ULMB at the same time is in fact possible!
If g-sync becomes active, the refresh rate is controlled by the frame rate (which is the whole point.) So in 120Hz mode, an FPS cap of 100FPS will give you 100Hz.mds83 wrote:I see people talk about using only 120hz or 144hz for this hack.

I got ViewSonic XG2703-GS and I totally forgot about this g-sync + ulmb thing and really want to try it.
Not wanting to scroll thru whole thread, is there some ready settings that someone have found that I could just copy?
Or some easy steps what to do to do it myself.
