59fps cap stutter issue?

[Drojman]

Hey all,

Put this in this section because I've only noticed it since getting my Titan Xs.

So on my monitor I get Vsync lag. Like many others I put my FPS to 59 to eliminate the lag but I find that I get like a weird stuttery jumpiness going on. It's nowhere near as smooth despite being 59fps. Is this something to do with my GPUs? Any advice would be great because while in some stuff input lag is fine, it can be annoying in CS and GTA etc.

Cheers.

Yeah but if you cap it to 59 or one less than your refresh frare you get no input lag.

I don't know where you heard capping at 59 as opposed to 60 prevents input lag because that's wholly untrue.

Works for me, but not without issues unfortunately.

The folk you're talking about might actually be playing at 59.94fps on a display that supports this NTSC standard (59.94Hz).

If your monitor is refreshing at 60Hz but your game is running at 59fps you'll experience stutter every second: 58 frames each shown for 1/60 of a second, 1 frame shown for 1/30 of a second.

Ah ok. Shame. I bought a ROG Swift to use for competitive play, but the colours aren't for me, sadly.
