Rip Gsync (FastSync?)

That works whilst you remain in the G-Sync frame cap of your monitor. Your way allows the frames to go over your monitor refresh rate.
Even if you don't notice it, it's probably causing microstutter

unfortunately, this is one setting where NVCP can't totally override the game setting, so you absolutely have to always set it OFF in game, otherwise yeah it causes a conflict
no, he's using the right settings, off in game, no stutter
you shouldn't need to use afterburner to cap fps though, gsync caps the fps just below the max refresh now anyway so it solved that "reverting to vsync" problem
I have seen this mentioned a few times - is there a confirmed source for this? All the articles that do mention reverting to v sync are pretty old now so it could have definitely changed for the better.
I should probably just test it out myself with SLI disabled...

I had direct confirmation from Nvidia engineers earlier this year that G-SYNC does nothing special whatsoever to 'cap frame rates'. It simply reverts to VSync on if the framerate exceeds the refresh rate cap and VSync is enabled in NVCP or otherwise. The reason you're not seeing any confirmation otherwise is because the 'traditional behaviour' still applies here.
Yeah vsync on is how it was always meant to be - im really inrterested to see how effective fastsync is compared with gsync.

Great combination with Gsync tbh 
Are you using it on a g-sync monitor? Could/would you recommend it for ye olde fixed refresh screens as well?
Does this mean if you enable G-Sync in the NCP and disable V-Sync in NCP and in game, the frame rate will not be allowed to go above the refresh rate? I'm getting my G-Sync monitor tomorrow so will have a play around with the settings.
Yes this i would like to know also
Or is it nvidia locking out to pascal and calling it a feature saga... when it can run on most modern nvidia cards
i am sure in the launch 10 series video it was said for a few previous nvidia generations will have to find it ....
Found it skip to 7.45 he states all of em ...i shall take him up on that if not there will be bother .....better watch out nvidia
7.45 is when the question is ask

Glad we could be of service
i have your bill please forward your contact details
Good to hear
if you got it use it
personally they should place a booklet in with the cards to explain these features nothing too in depth just a run down ..they expect everybody to use the net and know ...you will not be the 1st nor the last there will be many other non the wiser too
I assume you have a 10 series then
so from the video this is only really useful when you can render at multiples the speed of your monitor. Otherwise it'll just get in the way and be worse than either vsync on or off.
ie 60hz monitor, you'd need to be over 120fps render to make this work. So anything from 60-120 is kinda of a no go area. Makes sense as I was trying it on a game with an avg 80fps on a 60hz monitor and it made it pretty jerky.
