 +===== How to Enable Tearfree Mode (and what is it?) =====
 +
 +Tearfree is like a triple buffer for graphics. As the name implies, it's great at stopping tearing that's so annoying on my system.
 +
 +It is NOT freesync, that is separate.
 +
 +Enable it like this:
 +
 +  xrandr --output DisplayPort-1 --set TearFree on
 +
 +Some games might go 5fps, in which case, disable it again, since games usually have their own buffer and vsync.
