No, not strange at all. Your framerate probably gets below 60FPS which means vsync gets turned off and you'll get tearing. Try the half refresh rate setting. If that eliminates tearing then you're definitely below 60FPS. Or are you perhaps using a 120Hz monitor?

Thanks again. Then the author of the article on adaptive vsync, Brent Justice, made some mistakes when writing his article on HardOCP: "Note that tearing only occurs if the framerate exceeds the refresh rate, so if all your performance is under 60 FPS, you won't see tearing even with VSync off...

Ah OK thanks. So anything below 60 and I will get tearing again?

Just tried a couple of things with my 120Hz monitor: VSync off = tearing Adaptive VSync = tearing Adaptive VSync (half refresh rate) = no tearing Can anyone explain why?

I really would like to use this on my LG L245WP but I can't get into the service menu by pressing the menu button while powering on. Does anyone know how to access the service menu on the L245WP please? LOL, nevermind. I'd been searching for this before but couldn't find it. Just now I found...

I'm almost 44. Started with ZX Spectrum, then Amiga, then a Mac (not for gaming actually, I needed that for my job but I loved Myst and Journeyman Project) and then turned to PC. I do have an Xbox 360 but I'm not using it much. I feel much more at home playing games behind my desk and I love the...

I have a 3Com Gigabit Switch 8 which I have no problems with at all. It supports up to 9k jumbo frames and costs around $70

Ahum You're welcome Tim

Well, she's a Photoshop artist working with 500+MB files which are stored on our home server. So yes, she would benefit from the gigabit connection. You didn't misread, it's just that the new router (indeed with 4x gigabit LAN ports) is on the other side of our house :)

Maybe I wasn't clear enough with my explanation in my first post. The room where the PC and printer are located has only 1 UTP connection running to the router on the other side of the house. So to be able to use both the PC and printer on the network I have to use a switch or 2 NICs. But...

I believe they are used by telephone companies.

Thanks for the reply. The reason I don't want to use the switch anymore is because it's a 10/100 switch so then it would make no sense to install a gigabit NIC.

Hi all. My girlfriend's PC is connected to a 10/100 switch which is connected to our router. The reason there's a switch is that she also has a network printer in her room. Now I've bought a gigabit router and want to connect her computer with an extra gigabit NIC and use the 10/100 mainboard...
