Quick overview:
If you are a passionate gamer, you will have noticed that the image synchronization is not correct in some games. For example, when you move the mouse, the action of the game character only takes place approx. 1 second later. This is not really fun to play. The vertical synchronization option is responsible for this. To switch this off, you must deactivate it in the respective game. It is usually called V-Sync or Vertical Sync. and should be From or to Off stand.
If this does not work, there is still the option of deactivating the option in the properties of your graphics card driver. To do this, right-click on a free area of the desktop and select Properties. Now click successively on Settings > Extended and select the entry for your graphics card. As there are two game interfaces (Direct3D and OpenGL), you must disable vertical synchronization for both.
However, if you are in possession of a graphics card from the GeForce family and have the option in the OpenGL but not in the Direct3D properties, you must proceed as follows to make it visible.
Direct3D and OpenGL - the right setting
1. Make sure that you have installed an Nvidia Detonator. Now click one after the other on Start > Execute and type regedit button. An explorer-like program appears.
2. Navigate to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak and right-click in the right-hand pane. Now select New > DWORD value and call them CoolBits.
3. Double-click on your self-made value and type instead of the 0 one 3 in. Now close the program and go to the display properties as described above. Select the Nvidia register there. Now click on Further properties > Direct3D settings > Further Direct3D options and present them to the Vertical synchronization mode on From and the maximum renderer to 1.
Now their games no longer lag.
