I've recently built my gaming pc, however, i've been getting a ton of screen tears when capping my fps to 60. Which I don't understand because my monitor can go up to 144hz. I understand that my frames need to sync up with my monitor and that vsync and gsync can help. However, my delay is terrible with vsync, and I don't have access to gsync. I'm using a hdmi cable as well so my hz is automatically capped to 60hz, would switching to dvi be any help?
