Tearing appears exclusively on the DisplayPort connection, not via HDMI.
Tearing appears exclusively on the DisplayPort connection, not via HDMI.
This setup involves a graphics card with multiple output ports, including DisplayPort and HDMI. To expand my display, I needed additional cables, which led me to purchase compatible DP cables. The cables I bought from iVANKY support 4K at 144Hz, aligning with my monitor specs. Since my second monitor only accepts HDMI input, I redirected the HDMI signal to it and used the DP cable for the main display. This resolved performance issues in games like God of War and Warhammer 3, where screen tearing occurred with the DP connection. I prefer avoiding VSync as it limits frame rates to 60fps in those titles. If possible, I’d like a method to enable VSync without imposing frame caps. Any advice or help in diagnosing this problem would be very useful.
For that extremely high resolution or refresh rate, certified DisplayPort cables are essential to maintain signal quality and performance. Non-certified options may function temporarily, but they aren't reliable. You can verify certification details at the provided link: https://www.displayport.org/product-cate...?ps=iVanky. Notice only two models from iVANKY are listed, so it’s likely you have one of those. Certified cables significantly improve results.
I bought these cables, each labeled as VESA certified. I’m struggling to locate the specific IDs you mentioned—VBC01 and VBC31—across different online retailers, including Newegg, Amazon, and iVanky’s site.
It’s mentioned on the Amazon page that DD01P isn’t actually certified despite being labeled as such. From a legal standpoint, they shouldn’t be using VESA certification claims for the cables, but Amazon likely won’t compel them to remove it. I’ve already reported this concern. For now, I’d look for new properly VESA certified options. I’m cautious about giving recommendations since I work for a manufacturer of these cables. You can check the VESA website (https://www.displayport.org/product-cate...-adaptors/) and browse manufacturers to identify recognizable brands. Then search for models on Amazon or their official sites. This is the recommended starting point—I don’t trust uncertified products. The vendor list includes several well-known names like Belkin, BizLink, Cable Matters, CE Link, Club 3D, Delock, JCE, Plugable, Sony, StarTech.com, Targus, and many others.
