You're experiencing different performance behaviors depending on the display mode and settings. Running in fullscreen with Vsync limits FPS to 50 despite higher frame rates, while windowed borderless at 1080p maintains a smoother 60 FPS. Turning Vsync off in fullscreen gives you the best performance, but you notice noticeable stuttering. Switching to windowed mode improves stability and speed. The issue seems consistent across users, suggesting it's related to display settings or driver behavior rather than hardware limitations. Adjusting settings accordingly should help.

This setting describes different Vsync configurations in the Nvidia control panel. Fullscreen without Vsync offers maximum performance with fluid controls but may cause tearing. With Vsync enabled (adaptive), it locks at 50 FPS, has noticeable input lag and occasional stutter, yet avoids tearing. A windowed borderless version with Vsync maintains 60 FPS, provides smooth input, no stutter or tearing.
