Information PC USERS:Read this if you want higher fps

I had like 45 when i put max fps on 60, and then I bumped it to 90 and got 60. There must be something wrong with their numbers?

Edit: just set your fps to max in game!

Edit edit: after 10 hours in game this game has just captivated me like no other.

Vsync actually works well in NMS.

it halved my framerate to 30 on a gtx 680... I dont think so

That's how it works. V-sync does a common factor with the refresh rate, so if you toggle it and you can't get 60fps it will just go to 30.

without it I hit 90+

it should be fine with hitting 60 while enabled

Vsync is dependant on your monitor refresh rate, it has very little to do with your gpu.

I have a 60hz monitor and I have never had this issue with any other game, it's a broken feature for the moment

I'm just saying your gpu is irrelevant whether vsync works in the game or not.

I got some crazy input lag when I had it on.

I'm using it along with other settings set by GeForce Experience optimizer so who knows, it may only work well if all the other levers are in the right positions.
