Who tf just throws a monitor around like that and leans on it
Linus
someone who gets stuff sent to them for free i suppose lol must be nice
He didn't pay shit for that monitor, so yeah
If i got that monitor sent to me for free i would be praying down before it lol
mutha phocker same, LOL
the way he puts weight onto the monitor triggers me
Djmedic23 ikr
Thank you! I thought I was the only one.
The way he handles most tech, is very heavy-handed.
So relatable
Omfg yes. It made me cringe every single time
he seems like he's got a few drinks in him. Not a bad thing
Excellent job editor! You've made the concepts incredibly easy to understand with the effects.
Why did this get recommended 6 years later when linus tech tips way bigger
yeah also NCIX went bankrupt so rip
The good old times

i always suck it up, i cant handle that lag

This channel seems to have a habit of saying there will be informative links for follow-up in the description, but then failing to put those links there. All I see are links for your own website/social media/apps. Where do I find more about nVidia's pre-modded G-Sync monitors as you mentioned at 4:18?
When 4k monitors are out, and many people can't push crazy high fps, and fps dips can be more extreme, g-sync is going to be very important.
My boy, you made the most precision analysis of all time here

Since 2014, Nvidia has been promoting its solution to the VSync problem, that it has dubbed G-Sync. The basic concept with G-Sync is that the GPU actually controls the refresh rate of the monitor. By doing this, the monitor and GPU are always in sync and therefore there is never any tearing or stuttering. Prior to this, Nvidia had already been working on Adaptive VSync.
As PC Perspective notes, there are three regimes in which any variable refresh rate GPU/monitor system needs to operate within: A) when the GPU's frames per second is below the minimum refresh rate of the monitor. B) When the GPU's frames per second is between the minimum and maximum refresh rate of the monitor. C) When the GPU's frames per second is greater than the maximum refresh rate of the monitor.
Case B mentioned above is straightforward - the GPU simply sets refresh rate of the monitor to equal its frames per second.
When a G-Sync compatible GPU and monitor are operating in case C, Nvidia has decided that the GPU should default to VSync mode. However, in case A, G-Sync sets the monitor's refresh rate to be an integer multiple of the current frames per second coming from the GPU. This is similar to the delaying frames strategy of VSync, but has the advantage of keeping in step with the monitor because of the whole number multiplier.
The (somewhat literal) price of this solution is that Nvidia needs to have a proprietary chip in every G-Sync compatible monitor. This has the undesirable result of G-Sync monitors incurring increased costs due to requiring the extra electronics and paying the associated license fees to Nvidia. Finally, it is not supported by AMD GPUs either

thank you for explaining screen tearing to me, your videos always help me fix problems, even when they are totally unrelated to them. :)
2019 anyone? no just me? ok
Great explaining in such short time. Conclusion: when you have a 240Hz g-sync-capable monitor it's not the point to (always) have 240 pictures from your graphics card per second, but that your monitor can handle spikes up to 240 pictures/s without any negative effects like tearing or stuttering.
So the moniter adjust its speed to stay consistent with the gpu ???
The editing for this video was great! Very clever at some parts.
Yes! G-sync is exactly what I need to get the best gaming experience that I want! AMD please catch up on this!
wow no ad in the end. like "you know what else is cool?'. I'm impressed xD
I have a brand new gtx 980, I have adaptive vsync turned on. It still tears, I tried just normal vsync, still tears. I tried vsync and adaptive vsync, still tears. Is getting a gsync monitor the only way to stop this tearing?
So basically, instead of the card synchronizing to the monitors sync signals it's the monitor synchronizing to the cards sync signals. Probably don't need an expensive chip and 768MB of RAM to do it but, whatever.
It's not hard to figure out how it works and I don't see why it hasn't been implemented for digital panels before now. It's actually easily implemented on laptops as the card basically controls refresh and sync anyway. The only thing I see holding the tech back is the need for backward compatibility, meaning expensive chip and 768MB to support both sync methods.
So what if I run a game at 180- 200fps? Would the monitor be able to boost it's refresh rate to display all frames? Or would it be limited by the 144hz? If so then that could be no better than a regular monitor and i would still get tearing.
144 fps would be max, though if you get that much fps then the games you play might not be heavy enough for the monitor to be worth it
Did you even watch the video? There's absolutely NO TEARING with G-Sync.
If a monitor's refresh rate is 144Hz, there no fucking benefit of running a game at 180fps, regardless of the monitor.
G-Sync fixes every single problems occur with V-Sync off AND V-Sync on!
BUT, if you can run games at 180fps then you can turn on V-Sync and the experience would be good, the lag isn't that terrible in most games.
Ladybug Crystal I really don't think G-Sync is ready for the market yet, there's just not enough demand.
Ladybug Crystal Lag is mostly an issue for 60hz monitors, You get 30fps experiance for some seconds. While in 120hz monitors you would get 60fps experiance which isnt that bad neither. The real problem is constant chance in frame speeds (60-120 or 30-60)
I thought this was an old Linus video but it’s even older
I'm pretty happy with my 1440p monitor :)
Hey linus, another topic to cover sometime when talking about gaming displays, would be playing pc-games on a tv! on the paper, television screens do have advantages like the very high refresh-rate (often more than 300Hz even if u could never "use" them) and the big screen!
I mean we all know, that most of the time, the response time is really bad, but i think it would make an interresting topic in an upcoming episode (talking about the advantages and disadvantages). I don't think that I'm the only one who could the interessted in playing with the pc on such huge displays (+39")
Btw. very cool episode (as always) :D
Still really useful in 2021😂
I know this video has been out for a while... but I was wondering if the "tearing" and "stuttering" effects still apply if you can constantly run games at your monitors native speed with v-sync? Thanks for the input :D
Use a high speed camera and slow the footage of g sync on/off
Yeaaah
I just got my monitor the other day and I love it. I'm glad I have the option to install g sync if or when I want to =)
When you are back at NCIX from Linus Tech Tips from 2018
I have that same monitor and I'll install the module as soon as it is available. Thanks Linus!
how much channels does this dude even have?
😂
If I understand it correctly; The GPU will render the frames as fast as possible, while the Monitor will reach out and grab a fram every Hertz, right?
So if you have a 60Hz monitor With G-Sync, that means that on every Hertz triggered, the screen will reach out to the GPU and say "YO! I'm grabbin a frame now!", regardless how fast or slow the GPU renders a frame.
Linus said at 2:57 that G-Sync refresh rate acts as a "Maximum".
I don't know how that is going to be different from NOT using G-Sync.
I mean even today that is how it works already.
GPU Renders frames ASAP > sends frames to screen > screen refreshes the viewing area whenever possible.
It's completely about how fast or slow the GPU renders with GSync. That max he was talking about is dynamically set to match the output of the
GPU. GSync matches the refresh rate of the monitor to the fps that the GPU is putting out at that moment. That's why they're using a 144hz monitor, if your GPU is rendering at 125 fps then GSync sets the refresh to 125hz. So that way there is always a 1:1 of fps and refresh rate. That way there is no tearing, no stutters, and no input lag.
"Today, that is how it works already"
It's because that's exactly how it work on every regular monitor!
G-Sync is COMPLETELY different from that, the monitor will "cooperate" with the GPU and work together to eliminate all problems!
OMG I had soo much tearing on this video even though i have G Sync on. Does anyone know what's wrong?
Lol, are you dumb, it's special effects. Unless it's sarcasm......

Very informative! Didn't expect to learn so much from this video.
leaning all over that monitor and im here sweating like nooo!
i have that exact same monitor, i really hope they develop that DIY kit.
Apparently not many ppl cares apart from few about gsync. Only 2.5k viewes after half a day! Mice unboxings by linus had more viewes than that.
I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing. If everyone knew about how good gsnyc is, AMD would sell WAY fewer cards and eventually leave nvidia without competition and we all know a monopoly is bad for everyone.
So until AMD supports G-sync or a simmilar technology I hope gsync doesn't go viral.
knexfan0011 amd cards outsell NVidia cards by few to one. Amd cards U can use for work as well. Nvidia cards are only for games. Yet priced out of proportion. Nvidia products are nothing special. What is special tough about NVidia is their marketing department who can market well whatever they make.
SuperStareGry
both AMD and nVidia have cardsw for the professional market. AMD is selling more atm due to cryptocurrency mining, which is a lot more efficient with a radeon card than any other.
But when talking about the gaming crowd alone, if gsync became more popular AMD would loose many sales.
I consider myself someone who prefers AMD products, but unless AMD starts to support gsync or a simmilar tech, I will get nVidia just for gsync and I doubt I am the only one who thinks this way.
Moron
so far back so many memories of old linus cX
What if I have an AMD gpu, will it work?
Not for now, unless AMD pays NVIDIA if it catches on.
I really hope not, that'd make buying a monitor a neusence.
Or amd gives nvidia mantle and nvidia gives amd Gsync... That would be awesome.
***** Well i dont know both technologies are very good... Here you have Gsync no more lag no more retarded screen tearing... I'd get that right away if i had money... While on the other side we have mantle which increases FPS for aprox 20 to 30%... No screen tear, no lag, more fps, a gamers dream *________*
***** We're not comparing which is better... We're comparing which one is more valuable the mantle or Gsync? As i was saying if amd traded mantle and nvidia Gsync for both sides to have would've been great... but whether it's fair trade or not is the question...
Do I have to have Nvidia GPU to take advantage of G-Sync?
Maybe a stupid question but... Will it work with AMD?
monitor itself ? YES... but no G-Sync capabilities.
*****, i mean the monitor will display your dekstop when plugged by PC with AMD card like an ordinary monitor, but NO G-SYNC capabilities i mean it just become a standard monitor.
***** im sure gsync is a ll good and well, but unless the person you're recommending a gaphics card for, is actually is prepared to buy a rather expensive monitor, to go with that graphics card, then it doesn't make much of a difference does it? Not an amd fanboy,I buy GPU based on €/FPS, nvidia or AMD makes no difference to me. My point being, altough I consider myself pc enthusiast, with the monitor i have right now (S27A950) tearing has never been an issue, so I see no reason to spring for both a new GPU and a new monitor.
I bought 3 ASUS VG248QE monitors right before the holidays on a sli setup. Gaming is amazing and I can't imagine going back to a lower refresh rate, let alone back to a single monitor. Can't wait for this gsync to come out. I will definitely be modding these!!
you will need 3 kepler cards to run 3 monitor because in order to use g-sync you need to use display port.
So if i have a g-sync monitor i don't have to use the v-sync crap right?
zeoz911 That's basically it. Only thing is though; your GFX card has to be able to match the refresh rate of your monitor for best results. If you get one of the new 144hz G-Sync panels, you're going to need a couple of high end cards in SLi to keep up swith the monitor. If you have that, it looks amazing. Otherwise stick with a panel running at 60hz, that way, if you have even a mid-level GFX card, it still looks smooooooth. I haven't heard of many people who have tried G-Sync gaming that have wanted to go back to a regular display.
*****
A good card, but even so, running games at 4K, you mightfind your self having to reduce quality settings, especially in demanding games. For 4K gaming at high settings you would really want two 980s in SLI.
*****
You're welcome. Lot of options out there for the gamer these days. Keep enjoying your games though. :)
+Toolpusher Dude, you completly misunderstood. Whatch this video again and stop giving people bad advices. If you buy 144Hz G-SYNC monitor you dont need to buy many graphic cards to always run at 144 FPS for G-SYNC to take effect. What G-SYNC does is DYNAMICALLY change the refresh rate of your monitor to match the FPS your card is putting out. Thats why getting a monitor with higher max refresh rate capability is better, this way when your graphics card is producing 110 FPS your monitor refresh rate will be 110 to match it, otherwise impossible if you have a monitor with maximum refresh rate of 60Hz.
Pavel Sládek "Dude", I haven't been giving anyone "bad advices" (sic). My advice was based on wanting to run at maximum settings. A G-Sync display, at least a good one, is relatively expensive, gamers buying one will ideally be wanting to fully exploit the possibilities, hence an expensive GFX subsystem. Of course it will "work" with a cheaper card, but for overall gaming enjoyment in that case, you'd be better upgrading your GFX and sticking with a traditional, cheaper display for your gaming enjoyment.
Yay I was wondering about what it was and I love that it was still Linus explaining that.

2019 anyone? 😂
Me,who likes watching old videos from Linus and see how did he improve
Tearing occurs when the swap chain presents frames faster than the monitor can refresh, it's basically the video card out performing the monitor.
I'm really a noob, its 2019 and I just heard of g sync lol, I'm also non PC gamer dang
Same
I’m just out here trying to figure out what needs to be plugged in where-none of these videos have been helpful.
Good editting, guys. Nailed it.
how much is a monitor with a high refresh rate vs a monitor with g-sync?
I mean a monitor with so many refresh rate that is hard for the card to keep it higher would not even need v or g sync right?
i don't know where you are but in the UK the Asus VG248QE is approx £275 with Gsync it's approx £441. if you struggle to hit a decent frames per second Gsync may benefit you, but to splash out on a £441 monitor is bit extreme if you don't get good frames per second.
Tom Smith yea i thot so
high refresh rate monitors wouldn't do g-sync's job, all g-sync does is making the refresh rate dynamic, you still need a definated hz as the max
Galbatorex if your cpu/gpu can't produce as many fps as you monitor Hz - it absolutely does...tearing only happens when fps crosses monitor refresh rates ... lower or higher is completely tear-free .. jsut like gsync
mazinais31 the problem with high refresh rate monitors is the quality of the panel is usually not as good so you are not really getting the best of both worlds... BUT - whenever i switch from 60 to 75 hz on my monitor i need a few minutes of adjustment... it all feels weird for a moment... i wonder what will gsync do to your eyes if it changes refresh rate all the time... might not be good
It makes me so happy that i bought that monitor a few months ago. Now i can get a DIY kit and know that it works. I would need to get a better graphics card though....
as long as it is an Nvidia chip, it shouldn't matter, you can always turn settings down
TheNerdyCanadian No, you need to have a Kepler based GPU for G-Sync to work so anywhere from a 660 or above
nope, GTX 650 and up, 600 series and above are kepler
Why would i need to get g-sync if i have 144Hz monitor? That's pointless,i don't know what GPU should i use to get mor ethan 144Hz in modern games,and even if i archieve more than 144Hz,would I be able to see it? I don't think so
In a way I agree, you rarely get tearing with 144hz, but then with G-Sync you cap at 144... Yeah useless at the moment but will be fantastic in the future.
Well in the future i think there will be tons of much cheaper variants
Mihajlo Mijailovic Oh yes of course, check out AMD's answer to this issue with a simple regulatory standard in cabling.
Yes i know,FreeSync,i'm waiting for that :D :)
I think the point of Gsync is for those frames "In-between" like anywhere from 31 fps to 59 fps then 61 fps to 119 fps. also 121 fps to 144. Reason I say this is that if you out put more then 60FPS which should be standard now, lock it at 60 Fps and have a 60Hz monitor, its gonna be smooth. When the Monitor is at 120Hz your gonna see some weird things when your FPS is not at 60 or 120 respectively. So Gsync will allow the refresh to fluctuate with the FPS meaning the Hz won't be locked. As for free sync, isn't that gonna be for laptops at first?
Edit: Actually this might sound weird but at 144Hz, shouldn't you lock the GPU at 72 FPS or 36 FPS. (Thats saying you don't make over the top FPS and have to lock it). But you couldn't cause GPU caps don't have that numbers in game, do they? Which is a reason Gsync would actually really help with 121 Hz to 144 Hz until we get 240Hz? Because having a monitor at 60Hz and GPU capped at 60FPS wouldn't do much bad unless a dip occurred. its an honest thought.
i've been playing with 1400*900 60hz and tearing for 5 years finally going to upgrade to a Predator XB240H. i push 400 fpz on cs:go which is the only game i play. hopefully the difference wil be good :D
Thumbs up if you're watching this exactly a year ahead of the date this video was published: January 2, 2015
Yeah!
Those fx were so cool explained alot
V-sync(60hz) + 59 fps limit = smooth gaming with no input lag or tearing! You're welcome!
BUT, the stutter is still there, you may not notice it, (I always do) but it's still there affecting the smoothnes of the game. And no. 59 fps does not completely fix input lag. Fps drops will stutter and spike much more. And lower framrates will feel much less smoother than with G-sync on. Well.. Duh..
Salih Durmisi Yeah, you're right about the fps drop! But, from my experience, turning v-sync on and also limiting my fps to 60 COMPLETELY removed stutter but there was still a bit of input lag. And limiting to 59 reduced the input lag A LOT!
I'm not sure about COMPLETELY removing stutter, that is currently completely IMPOSSIBLE to achieve without G-sync simply because a CPU doesn't perfectly sync with a GPU. Or the other way around. There will always be moments where your fps drops to 59 or lower, for example when moving fast in an FPS shooter game. That fps drop/s translates into stutter, spike. Play battlefield 3,4 with the perfoverlay setting on and watch how your cpu will spike up and down depending on what is happening on screen, and in certain cases it will stutter really bad and you will notice it. V sync does not work perfect to prevent stutters even with triple buffering ON. You can also try skyrim, or bioshock infinite, they're famous for their stutters. And also, another reason why you cant have a perfect stutter-free game is because of the so called DPC latency. A good PC like mine averaging at around 7-32us is almost ''perfect'' But it still produces stutters in most/all games. Look it up. G-sync will be the only thing to completely adress all of this. And will STILL completely fix the input lag issue as if you're having V sync OFF. Can't wait for this to drop. I've been waiting for this thing for so long!
Salih Durmisi Dude, I'm just trying to help people out there with a quick and easy solution to tearing, stutter and input lag, it may not work perfectly, but it sure helps a lot! As I said before, it worked amazingly with me.
Yea i'm cool with that, i'm pretty sure every one will be satisfied with that setting. but I think (at least) windows 8.1 implements 59 hz in almost every game already by standard. BTW I just wanted to let You know about what's really going on. So no offence there. Have a nice day man. :)
Totally getting one this holiday season for myself I deserve it. There is a g-sync 1080p and 1440p monitor both 27inch 144hz. $500 vs $800. I have the money to get either, but I would probably play game's at low settings and or low res(1080p) because of video card limitations. I currently play on a 60z 1440p monitor at medium settings in new games (Ex.BF4)
why is b-roll missing :(
Fuck you
I really love the editing in this one :)
guys you do realise that stand is literally just a spring with metal, chill it aint gonna snap...
so does g-sync completely do away with screen tearing and double framerate? if so, then that means the games we play will have less of a demand on our hardware and the monitor will be doing the work? that doesnt sound right... im pretty sure we'll get some kind of lag/stuttering if we play crysis 3 on a commodore64...

erich ly Linus Tech Tips for the rule then!
We should of had G-Sync years ago when CRT Monitors were discontinued because a refresh rate only makes sense on a CRT. It's like if mechanical Hard Drives were discontinued and Microsoft shipped support in Windows years after the last Hard Drive was made with a Disk Defragmenter because Defeaging an SSD is like rewinding a DVD.
This G-sync is useless to me.
My 144hz screen has ZERO tearing issues with V-sync off.
I still can't believe this was two years ago. holy fuck I swear it felt like not that long ago they announced this
First! Im the first person to comment on this video! Im so proud.
My fav part in this video was "Welc..."
ZeonPlayz people commented 3 years before you bud
AMD and Nvidia have both solved the problem of screen tearing and frame stuttering in demanding PC games. The bad news is that they each have their own solutions which are not compatible - in short we have a format war… again.What's the problem?>The source of displaying high-performance PC games is that monitors have a constant refresh rate, eg 75Hz means that the screen is updated 75 times per second. Meanwhile, graphics cards (GPUs) redraw the screen at a variable rate, depending on the computational load they're bearing.The difference in timings of the two mean that the current frame on the monitor and the current frame on the GPU become unsynchronised. Therefore, partway through the process of sending a frame to the monitor, the GPU moves onto the next frame.This switch appears as a discontinuity in what you seen on-screen. Usually, the discontinuity travels down the screen on concurrent frames as the phase difference between the GPU and monitor reduces. This discontinuity is what we call tearing and in extreme cases there can be several tears at once.
Most people ( including myself ) don't/won't even notice screen tearing. I'm going to stick with my original vg248qe.
G-sync fixes stuttering and tearing, not one or the other, both at the same time. If you don't notice either of them, you are a moron that might as well go play consoles instead, because you don't/won't even notice the difference.
MangoTangoFox oh shut the fuck up, dont start a war between console fanboys and pc elitist
MangoTangoFox I think that's a bit harsh, I think insulting him was childish and uncalled for, just because he can see past a minor issue like screen tearing. Besides which, there are more benefits to PC gaming than just UBER 1337 GAPHIX !!!!!111!!
gmm, i find it fairly easy to see screen tearing when vsync is turned off, at least in most games. its hard not to notice 2 different pictures on screen for top and bottom half. although as long as im running a decent fps, i dont notice any input lag with vsync
MangoTangoFox Its hardly noticeable cause it hardly happens.

thumbs up so he can see :)

Whether or not I can put up with Vsync depends on the game. In shooters I can't deal with it at all, I just have to put up with screen-tearing (unless it's a more intensive game and my PC only just musters around 60fps). Where as in 3rd person games (not including 3rd person shooters) I struggle to notice the slight delay, mostly because I'm not trying to do any precision mouse movements.
I come from 2015, and I think G-Sync is a rip off of iSync from the Apple iMac.
Nvidia should be sued.
Actually you came from 3 months ago. (According to youtube)
Thats not what The iCalender says!
Joshua Li I also come from the future and I have come to tell you that you are an iDiot.
iSync you all need to just chill out a bit
DestructoMonkey haha awesome joke :D
I had a question right around 2:58. Im late to the G sync game because I can now barely start affording it and have a real want for it, so im trying to learn up on it. My question is, you say there would be no lag, but since the monitor matches the amount of frames the GPU pushes out, would it not still lag if the GPU begins to struggle and stutter or pause, or even starts to push out really low FPS?
+danermanerkider You shuld have Decent GPU for example with enough Memory and power. If game need's 1,6GB you shuld have more (2gb or more) . Next, you shuld have SSD to minimalize "lags" from file's loading". Then it works.
