Why is my Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti tearing in Judgment?
While sprinting through the neon streets of Kamurocho, I noticed these jarring horizontal tears that completely broke the immersion. My Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti 16G had the core clock locked steady between 2480-2610MHz, but the frame times were bouncing wildly between 12-26ms, causing a micro-deviation in the monitor's refresh sync. I first tried enabling V-Sync in-game, but that was a disaster—input lag shot up over 42ms, making the controls feel like I was playing underwater. I eventually dove into the NVIDIA Control Panel, set Low Latency Mode to 'Ultra', and switched Vertical Sync to 'Fast'. Checking via RTSS, the frame time jitter dropped from 15ms to a rock-steady 11-13ms, killing the tearing without the lag. I actually hit a wall when I tried capping at 60 FPS and got massive stutters, but once I bumped the limit back to 144 FPS, it smoothed out. VRAM usage sat between 10.5-12.1GB with temps at 64-70℃. After verifying the driver profile, the frame pacing stayed pinned at 11-13ms, though the UI still feels a bit clunky.
