Lets be honest, at this point if you entered steamGaf and it wasn't a flaming wreak you would be more surprised.

KnifeGAF needs to talk about their knives constantly. They need to be looking at a knife constantly. When they need something new their only thought is of knives.

They use their knives to slice away everything else in their lives.

Anime is just another knife.

Where's Pyrogaf and swordgaf? :V

I want to talk about those curvy scimitars and sharp claymores!

This anime season sucks so bad, I'll have to play games =/
Are you out of your mind? Diamond is Unbreakable is this anime season.
It's just him writing random crap in the rules area, ignore it. :p
Nah that was modbot, it knows how important prinnies are. We must all get disgaea 1 so we can get the sequels.
 
I just got a 1440p monitor with gsync and a 980 ti and I'm still learning how to configure everything. I figured this would be the best place to ask some questions cause I'm mainly playing Rise of the Tomb Raider and Arkham Knight.

- I have G Sync turned on in the "monitor" part of Nvidia Control Panel. There is no option in the "V Sync" section, is that normal? And should I keep V Sync turned off in both the control panel and the graphics settings in both games?

- At 1440p, Rise of the Tomb Raider is ~45 fps in enclosed tombs and ~30 fps in more open areas with almost maxed settings. Is that normal? If it is, any advice on the best settings to lower?

- In RotTR benchmark, I start at 70fps and drop to 35 as the camera moves. Is g sync supposed to prevent that, or is it simply a feature that prevents screen tearing when FPS changes that drastically?

I'm just confused right now. I'm almost tempted to play at 1080p so I can lock 60fps at max settings
 
Someone post if they do not own Portal and have not played it.

You should not have vsync enabled with gsync. Gsync is basically an attempt to have vsync without the drawbacks of added latency and the halving of framerate without triple buffering.

Gsync should not be causing frame halving. The game can override vsync settings from NVIDIA CP. In many cases the NV CP stuff only applies to OpenGL games anyway.
