Hello guys!

Why not smooth +400fps game csgo, cs1.6, and 240hz monitor g-sync maybe smoother 165-168 and not hitreg....
WHY?? help me!! please thanks!
 
Running the game well out of the refresh rate window can introduce screen tearing which for me makes the game feel less smooth although everyone's tolerance to this is different you are likely also bouncing off of whatever your CPU limit is which can also make frame times very uneven also giving someone the perception that the game is not smooth

What monitor you're using can also be a factor even if it claims to be a a 240hz monitor the pixel response might not be fast enough to give you a true 240hz feeling

have you tried capping the frame rate to like 230 to see if that feels better.

This, also make sure vsync is off if you want gsync to kick in, for me I still see tearing with gsync but not with 120hz vsync

Not only turning vsync off, but checking gsync options on Nvidia Control Panel.

not working....

I don't experience any changes, in fact, if vsync is on, it's a little faster, but not as good.
 
Have you tried other similar games like overwatch or valorent to see if you have similar issues with smoothness?

I feel like I've seen multiple people complaining about counter stirke and similar issues to what you are having

Listing your full system specs as well as a screen shot of timespy just to make sure your computer in general is performing up to par would be helpful.

There is a place on your profile to input system specs so people can see them and more easily help you on this forum.

I tested Integrated grapics and my geforce gtx 1660 super 6gb.

And csgo fps benchmark average frametime(integrated grapics): 459 fps, and geforce fps: 565 fps,

Integrated grapics the game is much smoother, but still not 100%, if I use it with the video card, I feel a delay, if I turn on g-sync it's a little smoother, but there is a delay, and it really bothers me, if I turn it off, it doesn't feel smoother, but if I only turn on v-sync in the game, you can feel the smoothness better, but then there is input lag because v-sync causes input lag.
 
If you want the competitive experience turn vsync and gsync off, you'll get screen tearing but you can't avoid that.
Probably smoother on the igpu because it isn't as fast and it doesn't enter in as much cpu bootleneck as with the dedicated gpu, but that's just a guess, watch frame time if it's bouncing all over the place, and cpu/gpu usage.
 
You defeat the purpose of g-sync running over the fps max of your monitor it's not why you spend the money on the g-sync compatible screen.

If you want 4-500fps in CS:GO or w/e you are playing than disable g-sync not sure if vvr will be much handy either but you could try.

What should I buy to expand, or to find out, I'll put money into everything, I just really want to enjoy it..

I'm thinking about this, I think it's because of the g-sync monitor... I'm considering buying a g-sync monitor instead of a g-sync monitor, but if I turn off G-sync, the game won't be as smooth, so I have input lag...

It doesn't have anything to do if it's g-sync compatible or have the module I have own both, it's when you get so high from the refresh rate of your monitor you will have the problem.

I know some games are fps depending so the more fps the smoother gameplay and this doesn't go well with having v-sync, adaptive sync, freesync, g-sync and w/e activated you need to disable this in your monitors menu.

Back when I had my GTX 1080 Ti I owned a Dell S2417DG when gaming in 1440p and g-sync was handy in heavy games where you would seen drops and I had a good average when g-sync was enabled and locked at max 165Hz because going over would case desync in frames between the module and graphics card which will again lead to screen tearing.

and what should I do now??
 
Use Fast sync ?
Triple buffering (On vs. Off) ?
 
Use Fast sync ?

I've also tried adaptive-vsync and everything... somehow I have a feeling that the problem will be with the monitor, because with a motherboard video card it's better but not the best, now the process could be the problem, could the card be the problem? I have no idea,...
 
If you want to eliminate screen tearing, would limiting the frame rate to match the monitor refresh rate through the NVIDIA Control Panel work?

It's simple, if non of the sync solution works and you only play esports title get a 500Hz monitor because it's the only way that you will clear the issue you face.

Back in my day when we finally got 120 and later 144Hz it was an eye opener clearly even we ran CS1.6 uncapped and pushes over 2-300fps sometimes we had to live with shutters, tearing and so because we either didn't have the money or internet for something better.

In many esports games specially CS it can be a down side to run 240fps if everyone else runs more than that.

Yes okey, maybe is monitor bad or processor because with grapics card, nvidia grapics card not smooth....

The basics is that when the graphics card outputs more fps than the monitor can show screen tearing, shutters and more can happen and the way to get rid of this is to sync Hz and FPS this fixes screen tearing if there isn't a fps drop happening some should smooth the gameplay but in high fps games it can have a negative effect if the need is higher fps.

So get a 500Hz monitor or live with this or limit their fps which will also make ur system work less.
