I am running SLI GTX 570s and in some types of games, like shooters for example, I make sure to get plenty of FPS. For example, in BFBC2, my fps stay mostly between 90 and about 140-150.
Question is, what's the disadvantage of turning on vsync? I know I won't get the yucky tearing I do when firing the blackhawks' miniguns, but what else should I consider?
Thanks
