+ | ===== 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. | ||
