pine_beetlewareyaCan you explain why?pine_beetleNot really, by lowering your refresh rate you're making more screen tear more. It's just silly idea.Normally, yes, but not in this graphics pipeline, which is kind of the whole point.
Because the monitor refreshes if and only if (unless you are below 30 fps, I believe) the GPU has rendered the next frame. Therefore every monitor refresh is exactly 1 frame, so there is no tearing.
But you're right, this is targeted more towards low/mid end systems than high end. If your fps is double your refresh rate or higher, you don't really need it. However, not everybody can afford such a system.
edit: the guy above me is like 9 million times more in depth
