How to Stop Screen Tearing

I loaded an empty project and I get horrible screen tearing… when pivoting the view, I hold it and go in one direction…

my GPU is very decent, I run 3D games without issues and I even tried Adaptive vertical sync which helps a little, but the tearing still occurs…

anyone else having this issue??

well it’s set to ‘Adaptive’ not ‘On’.

‘On’ looks better, but I’m wondering why Adaptive isn’t working at all.

exactly, but it does not seem to work with my unreal project. I even Added my unreal project’s .exe to NVidia’s control panel and force it to Adaptive but screen tears keep happening. Setting Vsync On, does look a lot better.

Nope, just you. Probably a bad monitor if you say your GPU is up to snuff and you have V-Sync on.

Adaptive VSync is a smarter way to render frames using NVIDIA Control Panel software. At high framerates, VSync is enabled to eliminate tearing. At low frame rates, it’s disabled to minimize stuttering.
