On unless you have low fps
Idk what it does but I’m pretty sure is graphical. All I know is it doesn’t increases fps by a bit when it’s on. I keep it on cuz I don’t notice the difference
I’ve read that if you have a good PC, then off.
Always ON when you can. It reduces input lag.
However it has a bug that may lock your fps at certain value and it won’t get higher until you turn it off/on again.

i’m always puzzled by this too since i dont know what it does. i can get constant 144 fps frames on ultra but i still wonder if i should have it on or not.
edit: actually have it ON. what i dont have on is triple buffereing whatever that is 
On if ur capping fps
Off if ur using reflex w no cap
oh never knew this, i have Nvidia Reflexed - enabled + boost
whatever that means lol
On unless you have a PC from like 2008 or something.
It helps by preloading items, that’s it. If you have a PC from say 2014 on, set it on and forget it.
Nvidia Reflex is an ecosystem comprised of several components that measure and reduce system latency .
This happens if you tab out of the game iirc
well crap I do that so often to change my songs lmfao maybe that’s why I often have such bad fps fml
It is one way to do it but I think it happens if you get a deep fps drop in general.

I think it also happens after a long period of time also. The feature is so buggy, but best practice is to turn it back on and off every few games.
I could be mistaken, but wasn’t this only affecting AMD GPUs?
No idea really. I haven’t even seen anyone discussing it before.
