Hello [H]ard|Forum,
I recently began experiencing a framerate issue on my PC. When vsync is set to ON, my framerate appears to be jumping between 120fps and 60fps every other second, causing a stutter on my monitor.
Is it normal for an application or game to do this when you cannot maintain the 120fps when vsync is on? It has to set itself to the nearest multiple of your refresh rate? That would make sense, as a few other programs that were running at 200+ fps did not have this stutter issue. However, one of the programs that was experiencing the stutter is a pixel blur testing program, which my GTX 670 should easily be able to handle.
Unfortunately, with vsync off I get terrible screen tearing.
I'm unsure what prompted this to start happening -- I believe I always had "let the 3D application decide" checked off in the NVIDIA Control Panel, and this problem just started happening out of the blue.
I have done a good deal of troubleshooting and have since hit a wall. I'd love any feedback, comments, or suggestions. Let me know if there is anything further I could provide to help clarify my issue.
Thanks!
