VSync

[andreakarasho]

If i enable vsync, have i a drop of fps or better performance? Because when i play dtv or siege and i have some corpes in the floor my fps if i have 120 go to 90/100. With vsync, fps are stable (60 default)

Vsync lowers ur fps to ur desktop Hz , so its 60 FPS , its better to turn it OFF if you want a better performanse , try disabling cropses and ragdolls , it will increase ur performance a lot,

i have 100 corpes and 20/30 ragdolls
Its strange that fps drop with this config:
i5 3570 no k
hd 7950 OC 100gpu clock / 1250 memory clock
8gb ram

Turn it off and if you get less than 60fps (with a 60 refresh rate) leave it off.
If you get more than 60fps you can turn it on and sync your video card and screen together.
You should then have a consistant 60fps. turn on triple buffering if vsync is on.
No harm leaving it off if your fps is higher than refresh but you can get "tearing" as bid card and screen are not in sync.

if i turn it on i have 60fps EVER.
if i turn it off i have 120 fps but if i have more rag doll and corpes in the floor sometimes fps drop.

Its strange with my pc config

They already explained it to you....

With vsync on your fps drops to your monitors refresh rate. So if it's a 60hz monitor you'll get 60 fps maximum.

Useful only if you have artifacts in game.

[andreakarasho]

No artifacts.. But drop fps.
Now im playing with 10 rag dolls and 100 corpes.

Rag dolls are weapon on the floor or the fall of the corpes?

I've always played with 120 relatively constant fps, then decided to try 58 fps (advised if you use VSync to avoid input lag), and, even though at first I noticed a little difference, especially in animations, now I don't see a difference, and my GPU and CPU thank me for it. This is with WSE2; 58 max fps and NO Vsync (dunno without WSE2).
