Why is my Manli Snow Fox RTX 5070 OC tearing in KCD2?

Running through the Bohemian countryside was a nightmare because the top of my screen kept ripping horizontally, which is incredibly distracting at 4K. The GDDR7 memory on my Manli Snow Fox RTX 5070 OC is blazing fast, but during heavy foliage rendering, the frame times were jumping wildly between 11ms - 19ms. I first tried the basic in-game V-Sync, but that was a huge mistake—my input lag spiked to 45ms, making the controls feel like I was playing in mud. I eventually dove into the NVIDIA Control Panel, set Low Latency Mode to 'Ultra', and forced G-Sync Compatible mode. Monitoring via RTSS showed the frame time curve finally flattening out to a steady 8ms - 12ms. I did hit a snag where the screen flickered slightly after enabling G-Sync, but that vanished once I nudged the refresh rate down from 165Hz to 144Hz. Core temps stayed between 62℃ - 68℃ with fans at 1200 RPM. Everything is rock steady now with frame times locked at 8ms - 12ms.
