G-Sync and Input Lag

[mxoagentjohnson]

Just wanted to ask for anyone here who owns a gsync monitor, how does input lag base itself on these monitors?

I've noticed letting the fps freely run at up to 144hz i dont get any input lag, but if i put the refresh rate at a maximum of 60hz that i get 60fps i seem to emulate as much input lag as i would using Vsync, but if i hit 60fps with 144hz as my maximum i dont experience this.

Anyone able to confirm how much input lag is added on with gsync as opposed to non vsync and non gsynced gaming?

When g-sync hits the max refresh your monitor is set at like 60fps at 60hz or 144fps at 144hz an extra amount of input lag is added. To solve this you need to use an fps limiter (whichever software you prefer). For 60hz refresh for instance you can set max fps limit to 59fps to eliminate the extra lag. As you say 60fps at 144hz is fine as you are miles away in fps from your max hz the monitor is set to.
In summary just limit fps to just under your set monitor refresh rate and say goodbye to the extra lag and take full advantage of g-sync goodness.
Your input lag should now be similar to no v-sync but without the annoying tearing.

Ah i see, i guess it acts naturally to what vsync would at the max refresh rate (atleast at 60hz )
