Very interesting video for you guys running Gsync and use nvidia drivers or msi too limit frame rate below refresh rate.

Hoping he also tests FRTC from AMD drivers and Freesync would be very interested in the results.

 
Without looking at the video, everyone seems to have differing opinions over whether it's better to use frame rate limiting or VSync in conjunction with FreeSync/GSync. AMD recommends VSync and suggests that it doesn't even take effect unless your fps goes above the monitor's refresh rate anyway (hence no downsides). Whether VSync is still the best option for games that actually include FPS limiters, I'm not sure.

After watching the video, the fact that nVidia's generic frame rate limiter adds delay doesn't surprise me since I'm sure I remember reading that AMD's has the same issue.

Msi afterburner also adds input lag I didn't expect that tbh. BTW vsync is only an issue with Gsync and Freesync below the Adaptive-Sync window 30 or 40 on some monitors.
