Been playing a lot of Skyrim lately and Vsync is on by default and you can't turn it off without editing an .INI file.

Trouble is, when you turn it off by the INI file I've noticed a few issues such as stuttering even the FPS is high.

Back to my original question, with Vsync on, when my FPS drops below 60 I'll notice a mili second of lag. It doesn't sound like much but it can get pretty annoying... It'll happen even when the FPS dips to 58 for instance.

Is their a way I can fix this in some driver settings or something?

Thanks
 
Got a 5850 1gb.

I never thought about forcing vsync off but I feel it'll give me the stuttering problems.

That adaptive vsync sounds good, anyone know if it's in ccc?

Cheers
 
My FPS isn't dropping to 30 though... It drops to the lowest of about 50, and in that process of it dropping is where I notice the stutter.

With Vsync on the displayed frame rate on the screen will be either 60 or factors of 60. It's just how Vsync works, to synchronise with the frequency of the monitor. If it goes below 60fps it would go to 30.
Click to expand...

But fraps certainly doesn't show 30.
 
Thanks, not sure I follow that correctly though.

So is what I'm experiencing normal (tiny lag spikes when dropping below 60fps)

Cheers
