Hello! Sick of using V-sync is it possible to not have to use it and still play wow and not see tearing?
I have an RTX 2070 super.
Odd that you have screen tearing with a 2070 super Beldrak. Let’s start with a DXDiag system report.
The second section of page has DXDiag report instructions - we don’t require the MSinfo report.
That will be a wall of text. If you have issues pasting on the Forum here go ahead and put it up on pastebin.com. Provide the link code portion of the URL - example below.
(The green bold portion at the end of this example link: https://pastebin.com/Qk28Ed1P <=== this code)
Alternately you can place the link in a Preformatted Text box. Paste the link in the chatbox - then highlight it. Click the preformatted text button along the top of the chatbox - looks like this </>
Will look like this example afterwards:

I’m off for a bit here - will be checking this later.
Short answer is that you can’t.
Tearing occurs when the primary frame buffer is updated out of sync with the monitor’s refresh. Unless you deliberately synchronise those two events there’s no way to ensure they’ll line up exactly, and that’s what V-sync does. Even a frame rate lock of 60fps (or, more ideally, a 16.67ms frame time) on a 60Hz screen doesn’t guarantee that the two equally spaced events will be at the same time.
Is there some specific reason you’re “sick” of using V-sync?
Does your monitor support Freesync or GSync? You don’t need VSync to benefit from those technologies.
