I've recently purchased a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro that has a 2560 x 1600 165Hz panel. None of the games that I play can hit 165 frames. The FPS fluctuates a lot between 80 -150, and it's very noticeable to me. I want to cap the frame rate to get consistent FPS and not put unnecessary load on the GPU.
I have both G-Sync and V-Sync enabled and FPS capped to 60 in NVCP for a game (Forza Horizon 5) with Low Latency set to Ultra. Is this the right setup to get minimum input lag? I've seen conflicting suggestions on whether V-Sync should be enabled or not when using G-Sync.
When I tried playing Forza with this setup, I got consistent 60 FPS however it didn't feel smooth. It felt choppier than 60 FPS feels but the in-game FPS counter showed a steady 60 FPS. I read somewhere that your capped refresh rate should be half the monitor's refresh rate, so I capped it at 83 and it felt a lot smoother. I'm not sure if that's due to more frames or due to the capped frame rate being half of the monitor's. Should I continue capping the frame rate at half the monitor's refresh rate, or does it not matter with G-Sync? Would I get better results if I changed the monitor's refresh rate to 60Hz then tried running Forza at 60FPS?
