I got a gtx970 with the GSync monitor Asus PG278Q.

In the last months nVidia changed the way GSync works and now VSync and GSync are different options, so we do not need to use VSync when GSync is enabled, as long as we manually cap the frame rate to just under 144fps so that the monitor's GSync system works.

So in the last few months im trying to disable VSync in the nVidia control panel. That works. Until I restart the computer.... this particular option resets... everything else i've changed in the control panel is saved normally and permanently.

Anybody knows how to save this option permanently without manually disabling it every time i restart the PC... its quite an important thing when playing CS:GO...

Thanks in advance for any answers :)
 
This sounds really irritating and is most likely a bug in the drivers.

Have you tried the latest 365.10 drivers out a couple of days ago? If that doesn't work, then try reinstalling them, selecting the clean option which will reset all settings. If still no good, then perhaps try a driver cleaner and reinstall. Unfortunately, I don't have a G-Sync monitor, so I can't test this for you.
 
yea I just installed the 365.10 and also it happens that i formatted last week, i got this problem for the last 2 months and my friend who has the same gpu and monitor also has the same problem, so its definately not something weird with my pc... its a bug
 
Way to go NVIDIA. :rolleyes:
