Hi, I just purchased a Acer Predator XB241h with g-sync.
It was a "future oriented" purchase, as I have a very old videocard (GTX 660, supports g-sync) but I had hoped I could at least enjoy G-sync a bit.
However it seems that enabling any game with G-sync WITHOUT V-sync only makes really makes games extremely teared and stuttering, while they work perfectly with BOTH v-sync and g-sync enabled.
The card can barely make 60 fps on HD resolution in-game and the monitor is 144 hz.
I monitored the fps while this unpleasant effects happen and I noticed that the fps are still around 60, bit they appear much lower.
Now...what is happening?
Is g-sync actually working or is the monitor broken? I really have no idea on how to test it as I only have the nvidia indicator as proof that it is on.
