Disabling V-Sync

[BDNelson]

Well, I just discovered how to disable V-Sync in Fallout 4. WOW!, I mean REALLY, WOW, the fps speed increase is so dramatic it is hard to put into words. If ANYONE out there has not done this, LEARN how to do this, ASAP(as soon as possible). IT IS FLAT OUT AMAZING!

Well a lot of people already knew this before you do. Because in general, if your graphics processor is rendering more frames than the monitor can display, it may cause excess heat and screen tearing. So trying to enable VSync either via the software or your graphics processor’s settings will calm things down. However, if the frame rate is below your monitor’s refresh rate, there’s little reason to have it on.. there’s no tearing or over processing to fix, so the only effect on VSync will have is potentially worsening your frame rate and causing input lag. So yeah it’s best to keep it off. When you used it correctly, VSync can help smooth out issues and keep your graphics processor from running red hot. Also when used incorrectly, it can needlessly harm your FPS and cause input lag without benefit.
