While playing games like Battlefield 2, I notice considerable screen-tearing in while making quick horizontal movements. This despite the solid framerate of about 60-80fps. Does anyone know any good tweaks or tools to use to reduce the screen tearing? Maybe a program that will force v-sync and/or frame buffering?

I am playing on a 20" Viewsonic LCD at 1680x1050 @ 60Hz with the system in my sig. Thanks for any advice.
 
i believe any you go above the monitors abiliy to refresh the screen you will have tearing.so,if you playing above 60fps you may have problems.should be able to force vertical sync from the ccc.

Thanks for reply, I did try ccc, but then I learned about another app called ATI tray tools which had most of same features and then some. I was also able to adjust fan speed, monitor temperatres, custom game profiles, etc with ATT, highly recommend it!
 
You can always turn vsync on but then you lose frame rates. I usually leave vsync off.

What I do is turn on Triple buffer on and that makes some tearing go away.

Does triple buffering even have anything to do with tearing? I think it needs to be on with Vsync, by itself it does nothing.(could be wrong though)
