How to fix frame sync issues on Zotac RTX 5060 Ti 16GB?
While tearing through the open plains, I kept seeing these annoying horizontal breaks across the middle of the screen, which is a total nightmare on a 144Hz monitor. The Zotac RTX 5060 Ti 16GB core clock was bouncing between 2.3 - 2.5 GHz, but there was a 2 - 4 ms phase offset between the driver sync signal and the monitor's refresh rate. I tried enabling V-Sync in the game settings first, but that was a mistake—input lag spiked to over 30 ms, making the steering feel sluggish and disconnected. I eventually dove into the NVIDIA Control Panel, set Low Latency Mode to 'Ultra', and capped the max frame rate at 141 FPS to keep it strictly within the G-Sync range. Checking RTSS, those wild frame time spikes were finally crushed into a tight 6.8 - 7.2 ms window. I actually noticed some slight flickering after capping the frames, which didn't go away until I switched the monitor's output color format from YCbCr to RGB. Now the GPU stays between 62 - 67℃ with fans humming at 1400 - 1600 RPM. I saved the profile in the control panel, and the frame generation time is now a rock steady 6.8 - 7.2 ms.
