V-Sync is not stopping screen tearing

[ltr666]

OK so I've tried turning off the v sync in game and forcing it on the nvidia control panel but I'm still getting the tearing. I'm using a GTX 580, but on the nvidia control panel I don't see anything that lets me choose application specific behaviour.

The best I can find is this:

Where I've set the refresh rate to 60 and told it to override the scaling mode, but the scaling mode isn't the refresh rate so I guess it's not overriding that.

Is there something else I have to do?

The scaling has nothing to do with v-sync.

You need to go to:

Manage 3D settings
-> Program Settings
-> under "1. Select a program to customize:" click 'add' and browse to aamfp.exe, then scroll down to "Vertical Sync" and select "On". I have v-sync also turned on in game and it's working fine.

Note that if you can't get a stable 60fps on your rig you might still see some tearing or stuttering even with v-sync. If you get stutters try adaptive v-sync.
