[SOLVED] 165hz with 980ti

[M05K The Laden]

Hello, I have a 980ti with a new 165hz monitor. Im playing Cold War currently when the fps goes from 80-100+ is butter smooth but when it gets to 70fps the monitor acts like a 60hz one. If I enable VSYNC it will be butter smooth? Because I know my GPU cant go further than 165fps with the settings I have... Almost everything on the max.

What monitor do you have?
Since its a 165hz monitor, i suppose it has Freesync or Gsync, which would be way better than VSync which causes input lag.

You should drop your expectations for the GPU, maybe run the games at 60FPS but increase in-game details at higher resolutions. If you were on a latter generation GPU, then yes you'd be seeing 165Hz at favorable frames.

VG248QG, but 900 series dont have the support for freesync/g sync compatible.

Oh yeah, totally forgot about that.

Options i have: Lowering the settings on cold war, or buy a 3060/3070, but here on Portugal is all out of stock

Well since it is FPS fast paced game after all, you will require more FPS, so lower those settings.
"or buy a 3060/3070, but here on Portugal is all out of stock"
Thats everywhere, sadly
