@dynam1ck I was messing around with it yesterday, and found out that the game in windowed fullscreen feels alot smoother, no screen tearing, only issue is the fact that windowed borderless feels like playing with vsync.
i did some more testing and found that if i play on a non-native resolution, then all the issues are gone, i tried setting a custom res with CRU, to test this out, and if i set it to 1728x1080 instead of 1920x1080, then i would still get screen tearing. but if i then set the ingame res to 1650x1024, instead of the 1728x1080 or 1080p res, then everything went away and felt like true 240hz. i don't know whats causing this, but i suspect that its an issue on apex' side, since i tested various custom resoltuions using CRU, with different vertical totals and horizontal totals. tried different refreshrates, and since CRU makes your custom res the active signal of your monitor, then it automatically becomes the native res of the monitor.
if i reset all my video drivers and reset my custom resolution settings, so my monitor went back to 1080p with standard factory settings, then i would get crazy screen tearing again. BUT when i turned down the resolution to 1650x1024, which is the next highest resolution, which apex supports without editing videoconfig, then all the screen tearing stopped. i hope a dev will see this at some point, and look into the issue, as it basically means that i can't play on a native res, which means my gpu will have to do a little more work to produce the frames.

Yeah, posted this on reddit, bluebusters and here, since its rare i see devs actually help out in here, Blurbusters was because i was convinced it could be a monitor issue or something, since the Forum is just everything optimization 😛
