How to fix screen tearing with Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 6400 in Witcher?

Whenever I swung my sword, a massive horizontal tear would rip across the screen, making precise parrying a total nightmare. The Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 6400 was having clock sync offsets when handling high-frequency signals, causing the refresh rate to wobble between 136-144Hz. I tried forcing full-screen optimizations in the NVIDIA panel, but that actually made the tearing worse and added flickering—a complete fail. I went into the BIOS, disabled the integrated graphics output, and forced the PCIe link to its maximum power state. RTSS showed the frame generation time tighten from a messy 7-14ms to a crisp 6.8-7.2ms. I did struggle with massive input lag after turning on V-Sync, which I only solved by switching to Fast Sync mode. Motherboard temps stayed between 44-49℃ with the fans barely spinning. After comparison tests, the tearing is gone and frame times are locked at 6.8-7.2ms.
