There will always be tearing without gsync or freesync. The only alternative is to maintain a frame rate significantly higher than the refresh rate and employ fast or adaptive sync.
Edit: You'll observe reduced tearing on displays with higher refresh rates.

I wouldn't mess around with VCore voltage until you have a stable base overclock, and on top of that, knowing what it means. Usually gains from OC'ing the VCore are not worth it (other than maybe a few more points in a benchmark).
Also, depending on how you overclock, you have to factor in RAM voltages and other stuff. So, I would keep everything at default, and run a game and see what your temps are at.
i will test it right now and will open RivaTuner and will take a Screenshot. It is actually really strange that the game BF1 is running without Blue Screen but when i Stress it with Fire Strike its causes a Blue Screen. If u want i can add u somewhere and check the CPU-Z or something with Team Viewer idk i will really apriciate and owe u a favour.. cuz i don't understand that much even if i open the CPU-Z idk what to look at.
P.S. I Tested it right now and the Temps are fine not more than 63 C on the CPU and 74 on the GPU. i put the rendering scale at 200% on the game for more Stress. IDk whats going on why its causing a blue screen at FireStrike

FireStrike is a pretty demanding bmark. I think you may be pushing your system a little to hard. 74C is on the hotter side for a gtx 1080, and having 200% / Doubling your resolution is pushing it a bit too much. Assuming you have a 1080p monitor (1920 x 1080) - when you run at 200% that is effectively running at 4K, which, is very stressful. Try reeling it back a bit. I like to keep my GTX 10 series cards at 65-70C tops, and the CPU around 60C. The blue screen is being caused by pushing the system too far.
The problem is i think my GPU is too Good for the CPU and its pushing it to its limits and that causes Tearing in the screen even when im playin with around 120~150 on Ultra Without Rendering Scale. i Hope that Tearing is not cuz i turned off V-Sync Cuz ive bought a PC for 2450$ not to play with V-Sync and get a Input Lag

I Really Hope thats not normal to have tearing when i turn V-Sync off and have tearing even with 120~150 FPS.
GPU+CPU is fine. Screen tearing all has to do with your monitor - specifically the refresh rate- in your case. For example, if you have a 60 Hz refresh rate monitor, any frames above 60 FPS are, simply put, are not handled by the screen, and cause screen tearing, V-sync, will 'cap' your FPS at 60 FPS to avoid tearing, in this example. Or, for example say you had at 144 Hz monitor, V-sync would kick in at around 144 FPS. Basically, screen tearing is going to happen in almost all games if your FPS in game is much higher than the monitor's refresh rate. So, it sounds like you may need a better monitor to match your PC! Pulling 120 FPS on a 60 Hz monitor is "wasting frames" - and also causes the tearing.
You will always experience tearing unless you use gsync or freesync. The other choice is to maintain a frame rate well above the refresh and opt for fast or adaptive sync.
Edit: You'll notice less tearing on higher refresh displays.
The first sentence isn't entirely accurateāplaying extremely demanding games that barely reach 60 FPS on a 60 Hz screen usually doesn't show tearing, though you might notice lag or stuttering. In short, aim to match FPS with the refresh rate, and when FPS significantly exceeds the refresh, consider using v-sync technology.
If you can't afford a 144hz gsync configuration, consider using triple buffering:

I wouldn't experiment with VCore voltage until you've achieved a consistent overclock, and even then, understanding its impact matters. Generally, improvements from adjusting the VCore aren't worth it (except possibly minor gains in certain tests). Additionally, depending on your overclocking method, you must consider RAM voltages and other factors. Iād stick to default settings and run a game to check actual temperatures.
Iām planning to test immediately, open RivaTuner, and take a screenshot. Itās actually quite unusual that the game BF1 runs without a Blue Screen, but when I stress it with Fire Strike it triggers one. If youād like, I can add myself somewhere to monitor CPU-Z or use Team ViewerāIāll really appreciate it. Honestly, I donāt grasp much even when I open CPU-Z; Iām unsure what to look for.
P.S. I just tested and the temperatures are normalāCPU stays under 63Ā°C and GPU under 74Ā°C. I set the rendering scale to 200% for extra stress. I donāt understand why itās causing a Blue Screen during Fire Strike.

FireStrike is quite demanding. It seems you might be pushing your system too much. For a GTX 1080, 74Ā°C is high, and doubling the resolution at 200% is pushing it further. Assuming a 1080p monitor (1920x1080), running at 200% makes it feel like 4K, which is very taxing. Try lowering the settings slightly. I prefer keeping my GTX 10 series cards around 65-70Ā°C tops and CPU near 60Ā°C. The Blue Screen likely results from overloading the system.
The issue might be that my GPU is better than my CPU, forcing it to its limits and causing screen tearing even at 120~150 FPS without V-Sync. Iāve invested $2450 in a PC not meant for V-Sync and low input lag. Hopefully, tearing isnāt due to V-Sync being disabledāsince I bought the machine specifically to avoid it.
Screen tearing usually stems from your monitorās refresh rate, especially if itās 60 Hz. With a higher refresh rate (like 144 Hz), frames above that rate arenāt displayed, leading to tearing. If you have a 144 Hz monitor and V-Sync is active, the system caps your FPS at 60 Hz to prevent tearing. Alternatively, on a 144 Hz display, V-Sync would activate around 144 FPS. In most games, this results in tearing if your gameās FPS exceeds the monitorās refresh rate. It seems you might need a better monitor that matches your PCās capabilities! Running at 120 FPS on a 60 Hz screen is wasting frames and also causes tearing.

In fact, when I enable it and put the PsyhX only from the GPU with Maximum Pre Rendered Frames set to 1, I notice a real improvement. It stopped tearing for the first five minutes O_O. But is this increasing input lag?
If it's the least compared to vsync, the article I referenced covers that.
