    No idea, I don’t know what freesync is, I turned on vsync and it was super smooth, didn’t look past that.

    I don’t game a lot, just wanted to play a few newer titles.

      Ahhh, my bad. I figured you were talking about freesync (AMD) or g-sync (Nvidea) options, which allows you to get the benefit of vsync without using as many resources to power it. Your monitor and gpu have to support it before it can be enabled. I was like, how is this bad haha!?

        No you’re good. I never used the vsync before because I felt like it always made my movements too slow but now with a better graphics card and a better monitor it’s super smooth and accurate and I really like it

        I upgraded from a 1070 and a 1080p basic monitor. I now have dual 1440p asus IPS monitors and the 3070, so huge upgrade, about a decades worth of technology
