Ive fixed my stuttering, tearing issues, possible fix

Hi, i had huge tearings issues with a very decent rig (9900k, 2080s, 32gb ram) the game looked like a slideshow even with rivatuner and gsync.

Ive put the command +fps_max 299, and cap my fps to 158 with rivatuner, i have a 165hz monitor without any vsync (dont disable or enable it in nvidia panel, let the program choose) and disable it ingame.

Ive tried capping to 0 = unlimited the game cap at 300 and feel so choppy, but at 299 its finally smooth.

if u use gsync, dont play with blurbuster guide, its add so much input lag, ive played all my games with vsync + gsync capping 3 fps below my monitor, one day ive tried without vsync, yeah u got a lilbit of tearings at the bottom but all games look so smooth, I have 1000+ hours on monster hunter world, a game where u need reflex, and without vsync i did all my quest without taking a hit (before with vsync, i always take some hits, same with apex no more people firing before me)

hope it helps some of you.

Edit, be sure to cap 8-10 frames below ur monitor refresh rates or ur mouse input will be weird without vsync.

  • @12yold i should mention, ive write to nvidia support, and they said to me : you dont want to use vsync with gsync.
  • @12yold Yeah apex feels very choppy compared to other games, like a slideslow and huge input lag feeling. Gsync is a must for apex, but keep it off for other games. Made alot of posts about this issue and the apex devs dont seem to care about it, so sad that a big company like Respawn only care about making skins to make profit and never listen to community feedback ☹️
  • @12yoldGood that u ask support by nvidia instead by a third party forum who says misleading information.

    if u still have contact with one of them, try to ask about msi mode, should u tick it if a gpu haven't, i know the 30 series have them enabled by default for 20 and under dont, i belive

  • My game feels so bad i tried everything and it just don't work i got on yesterday and my game was so smooth fine but now it's * again my fps randomly capped at 160, frames feels like its tearing a lot and just when you move around you feel like your playing on 60 fps but says your playing on over 144 fps... i really need help i reinstalled apex 2 times nothing works. i play on steam btw if thats important.

    Hey hey @kasllana,

    Could you create a new thread?

    This thread contains most likely a different issue, therefore it can get a bit messy.

    When creating a new thread, try to provide some more information like:

    • A recording of it occurring
    • A DxDiag
    • Recent changes you've made (e.c New software, Changed Settings, Driver updates)
    • Any running background apps (Including Overlays like Overwolf and Discord)

    Hopefully we'll be able to assist you in your new thread!
