GSYNC VSYNC fps unstable problem

I have a screen with GSYNC activated. In NVIDIA's panel, both GSYNC and VSYNC are activated.

I am playing on Counter Strike global offensive with very low graphic parameters. The computer has a gtx760 and a i7 4770.

In game VSYNC is not activated, my fps is very unstable, sometimes close to 144, sometimes close to 60 fps. It seems something else is trying to cap it to 60 fps. My graphic drivers are up-to-date.

Has anyone else had this problem before?

It seems the most recent nvidia drivers are not handling GSYNC properly, a hotfix is availble. http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3738/~/geforce-hotfix-driver-355.80

I hope it helps.

Does G-Sync cause fps drop?

G-Sync, as far as I know, had virtually no impact on FPS. G-Sync helps to reduce screen tearing and ghosting. It also will make any fluctuation in FPS look smoother.

Should Vsync be on with G-Sync?

If you want to be sure it's working properly, you can download Nvidia's Pendulum Demo(Opens in a new window) and play around with its settings. Try switching between "No Vsync" and "G-Sync" along the top\u2014you should see screen tearing disappear when switching G-Sync on.

Can G-Sync cause stuttering?

Gsync w/o Vsync on will still result in a bit of tearing and Gsync + Vsync will give you the full Vsync latency unless you limit the fps below refresh rate. That being said none of this has anything to do with suttering really (capping the FPS below refresh with Gsync not being active could cause stuttering though).

Does G-Sync help fps?

G-SYNC synchronizes refresh rates of a monitor (Hz) to the frame rates of a GPU (FPS) in order to eliminate screen tearing and stuttering. This author has been vetted and has the necessary know-how or education to be able to write about this topic.
