Is limiting your frame 3 frame below your monitor refresh rate really doing everything if for example you are using a "170hz" (an XG27AQ 144hz/170hz with overclocking) monitor that VRR ranges goes from 48Hz~170Hz for DisplayPort, but only use the out of the box 144hz native frequency?
The minimum -3 FPS limit is relative to the currently set max refresh rate.
I.E. if your 170Hz-capable monitor is set to a physical refresh rate of 144Hz, the recommended FPS limit is 141 FPS or under, whereas if that same monitor is set to a physical 170Hz, the recommended FPS limit is 167 FPS or under, and so on.

In this setup, is 144hz considered display’s maximum refresh rate and therefore a 141fps limit through NVCP is requiered for that smooth g-sync experience, or 170hz is still considered the maximum refresh rate, and a 144fps limit through NVCP(or in-game settings as it's often an option there) is the way to go?
Always -3 fps.

Hey I was wondering what settings I should use if I absolutely hate stuttering, I don’t rlly mind screen tearing that much but I absolutely hate stuttering. I have a g sync compatible monitor with a 3070rtx, and I don’t know if I should use g sync on with v sync off or with v sync on, let me know what setting is the best for if I HATE stuttering.

Always -3 fps.
You need a bigger safety margin when you're at higher refresh rates.
So I prefer to always say between 3-5% below.

It works best with two separate VSYNC settings (ON in drivers, OFF in game).
Maximum fluidity usually occurs with:
G-SYNC ON in monitor menus
G-SYNC ON in NVIDIA Control Panel
VSYNC ON in NVIDIA Control Panel
VSYNC OFF in-game menus
Cap about 3-5% below maximum Hz using the in-game framerate cap.
You can also try an RTSS cap instead of in-game.

In addition to what the Chief said, there will be system-side stutter either way, so for that, pick your poison:
- G-SYNC on + V-SYNC on = potentially (but not always) longer system-side stutter without tearing per instance
- G-SYNC on + V-SYNC off = potentially (but not always) shorter system-side stutter with tearing per instance
G-SYNC only fixes sync stutter and can not address system-related stutter due to asset loading/streaming, shader compilation, general I/O operation, etc.

In games wherein Nvidia Reflex is present, should i still use -3 fps in-game cap?
Because I observed even though I don't use in-game caps, the fps automatically caps when Nividia Reflex on or on+boost is enabled.
I also assume if Nvidia Reflex is avail, its a must use. Right?
Thanks~
Spec: vp249qgr / r5 3600 stock /b450m / rtx2070 / 2x8gb3200mhz
Settings: nvidia g-sync = on / nvidia v-sync = on / in-game vsync = off / monitor freesync = on (g-sync surprisingly works though, i hope so because g-sync indicator shows when its on)

A manual FPS limit is not required when using G-SYNC + V-SYNC + Reflex, since as you observed, Reflex will set an automatic limit of its own slightly below the max refresh rate for the same purpose.

Only if your system can't sustain the framerate at the FPS limit the majority of the time. Reflex only further reduces latency (separate of the latency G-SYNC reduces) whenever the GPU usage is maxed.

Hi, so 1st of all im very new to this forum and i literally cant find where to make a post. Anyways ill ask my question here fuk it. So...im using gsync + vsync in nvcp. My question is...should i also enable triple buffering in nvcp or no and does it matter if i have variable refresh rate in windows settings set to on or off. I switched it to on just to try it and it out feels better but maybe thats just me trippin. So ye...thats all i wanna know basically, thanks in advance

No; G-SYNC natively functions on a double buffer.
