Monitor help

[216Harley]

Does anyone have issues  with their monitor just bought a 1440p 240hz OLED and it goes from the 240Hz in the monitor menu down to 100 to 115ish, but other game's it is fine. Not sure if it is the way the engine was made for the game, just getting annoying plus getting a lot of lag too. Please help, do not know what else to do. Out of options.

When you say "down to 100-115" are you talking about the in-game fps? What is your "com_maxfps" currently set to?

Also, double check your frame rate on this site: https://testufo.com/ 

What is the model of the monitor?

Temporary test (do this first)

- Turn **Adaptive Sync / FreeSync / G-Sync** completely **OFF** on the monitor.

- Force the monitor to a fixed **240 Hz**.

- Test the game again.

 

If the lag goes away → the problem is VRR interacting with that game (very common).

 

Proper fix depending on GPU:

 

**If NVIDIA:**

1. Keep Adaptive Sync **ON** on the monitor.

2. In NVIDIA Control Panel → Set up G-SYNC → Enable for full screen.

3. Manage 3D Settings → Vertical Sync = **On**.

4. Cap the game a few frames under your target (e.g. if you want ~125, cap at 123–124 with RTSS or NVIDIA limiter).

 

**If AMD:**

1. Keep Adaptive Sync / FreeSync **ON** on the monitor.

2. In AMD Software → Gaming → Graphics → Enable Radeon FreeSync.

3. Cap FPS a few frames under max (same as above).

4. If lag persists, try turning FreeSync **off** as a test.
