Fixing screen tearing with Intel 760P 512GB?
Sprinting through the jungle, I kept seeing these obvious horizontal tears across the screen, making precision shooting nearly impossible. The Intel 760P 512GB was having sync clock offsets while streaming high-frequency assets, causing the refresh rate to jitter between 130-144Hz. I tried forcing Fullscreen Optimizations in the GPU panel, but that actually made the tearing worse and added flickering—a total fail. I eventually went into the BIOS, disabled the internal graphics output, and forced the PCIe link to its maximum power state. Monitoring with RTSS, the frame time tightened from a messy 8-18ms range to a steady 7.5-8.1ms. I noticed a huge spike in input lag after enabling V-Sync, but switching to Fast Sync fixed the delay. Motherboard temps are chill at 40-45℃ with low fan noise, and the tearing is completely gone, while RAM stays at 58-63℃.
