[SOLVED] Serious screen tearing in PoE with 144hz monitor
|
Original post
I recently bought asus VG248QE monitor (http://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/VG248QE/) and it arrived few hours ago. Ran PoE, logged in and when I move, and only when I move, screen tearing begins. I tried different settings without any effect except with v-sync. The problem with it is that it caps fps to 60 even when my monitor could run 144. Is this how v-sync works? I thought it caps it to monitor max refresh rate?
- I've Tried all options PoE has to offer - I've updated graphic card drivers (gtx550ti - 310.54) - I've installed 3D drivers I got on cd with monitor (lol had to try). - I've set 120fps hard cap to whole computer via nvidia inspector. - I've forced triple buffering. League of Legends works perfectly @144fps, I don't have any other games installed so hard to say if it's only with PoE. V-sync caps fps to 60 in LoL as well - should I to tell to my computer manually somehow that my screen is 144hz? My 10-years-old 1600x1200 monitor looks better @ 60 fps which doesn't even support 32bit colors xD than this new with tearing ;o Can't involve photos as I couldn't catch it on screenshot and my phones camera is too slow - the whole screen has movement blur =p I had to do this manually. Right click desktop -> screen resolution -> advanced settings -> monitor-> screen refresh rate. Now v-sync caps fps to 144 in PoE and LoL and it looks perfect :)  Last edited by Jyssi#3843 on Aug 19, 2013, 12:40:17 PM

I don't think your eye can tell the difference between 120 and 144, just turn it down a little.

" Nvidia inspectors hard cap was max 120 and tried it - with serious tearing. Now it's fixed, see the pic on OP :P Last edited by Jyssi#3843 on Aug 19, 2013, 12:34:22 PM

You must not have installed the Nvidia Control Center Software, you can change it from there also.
