Tried at 55fps, no tearing at all. And my gpu's were as quiet as idle.
Thought so, it was something I read on another forum awhile ago that certain settings away from 60 causes less or no tearing. Like 55 or 62

Ill also try 62, previous to using this i was averaging 90fps with higher temps and noise. Game still feels good. Indeed, AB is a great little tool. All you need in one package, and it's free.
woohoo D3DOverrider is working with Skyrim and the latest msi afterburner , Now I can see all my OSD readouts in game and have vsync and have Triple Buffering for D3D.
Won't be needing the frame rate limiter now for skyrim as I hate tearing

62 limit, no tearing. Jobs a good un.
I see the same results, settled for 57fps lock now. I'll try 62 and see what happens.
please can you post screen shots to get to this? I've been trying to find the frame rate limiter for the last 20minutes and it's driving me mad!
EDIT: nvm found it, it's in the On Screen Display server, click on the spanner

Thank goodness for this. Have been wanting something to do this for ages now.
Setting it at 60 seems to give a bit of tearing as some have noticed.
I have found setting at 58/59 give less tearing, though not played long at 58.
But is great playing bf 3 without vsync, and even looks like I can now enable 2xaa and get smoother gameplay than before.
This is excellent for crossfire in my opinion.
Whhy have ATI not done this in their drivers?

But ill include the ss in case anyone else needs it.
Works with pretty much any card I think, I've got 5850 crossfire and works a treat for me.

That is a huge improvement and it seems that is party an answer on how to overcome MicroStutter issues without Vsync.
NV has it, Afterburner has it and really AMD should also have it.

Question about Afterburner Beta...
When you install it, does it overwrite the existing proper version, or is it installed onto a different directory?
Also, would you be carry the settings of the proper version over, or is the Beta version settings has to be set from scratch?

Uninstall old version first, it will ask you if you want to keep the settings, install new version and it will use your old settings.

Running great and no stutter.

I have just been reading on other forums that AMD Catalyst™ 12.1a preview driver and 11.12 CAP2 has made things much smoother in BF3 with CF, so i would say that the fps limiter is not wholly responsible but is clearly the best combo.

Guys is this in any way useful when using vsync and triple buffering? Take those oblivion/fallout 3 games i think if i remember correctly you had to use ini fps clamp command and vsync right but it had side effects.
This tool would enable you to leave fallout ini alone clamp the fps to 60 and run vsync and it would get rid of the stutter? For anyone who really knows the fallout engine can i ask why does setting the fps to 60 or 59 or even 59.95 as some have reccomended in BF3 making it smoother and removing stutter? Surely vsync is already putting a limit on it to 60 so why would you need to do any other limiting?
Im a bit confused as to which situations i need this in but i noticed stutter in fallout 3 even with vsync thats for sure!
