I use VVR + Vsync on my LG CX.  Refresh is set to 120Hz so VRR takes care of everything between 40 and 116fps, then Vsync prevents any tearing as you hit 120fps.

Gets rid or screen tearing but causes mouse lag which is a no no for any shooting game.

Prefer to use it as it seems to make games look better overall.

I play only competitive games so I disable V-sync. It ads to much input lag and lower fps which results in even more input lag.

Good, but i think you really need to go all-in on it and get a monitor that's g-sync ultimate (not just compatible).

Like others said, don't use vsync in competitive games, if you're going to use anything you'd use something like g-sync or freesync, the latter is also supported by nvidia cards now btw.

I agree with previous comments.. if you have a 144hz panel or better it's not as noticeable as it would be on a 60hz.  And even still if you are playing at home and have the horsepower could go either way.  I'm assuming most here are home gamers and not on some gaming team.

Hate it. Invest in a monitor with VRR (Variable Refresh Rate). Makes every single gaming experience much more enjoyable. If that's not an option, use RivaTuner to cap your frames at 60, it provides very smooth frame times without introducing input lag. even in SP games, the input lag makes the experience less enjoyable.

It's good if you get a lot of screen tearing, otherwise leave it off, as it may increase latency

definitely use it if I get screen tearing but I don't necessarily like the mouse feel depending on the game.

i had to choose between v-sync and extreme motion blur with my monitor. Definitely went with v-sync, tearing is no fun

I’ve heard a lot of mixed opinions about VSync and how it can reduce screen tearing but also increases input delay and I’m not sure whether it’s better to have on or off, so what do y’all think?



It's all come down to personal preference depending on what type of game you're playing and what kind of monitor you have.

Nope! Don't think I've ever really used it.

rendering at above your monitors refresh rate still results in smoother gameplay

If you have Gsync or freesync you can disable Vsync, if not its really up to you depending on your level of screen tear.

Vsync is ok, but gsync with a gsync monitor is superior
