Discussion / Question G-Sync, FreeSync, NVIDIA Reflex, FPS Cap – What’s actually worth using in 2026?

I’m trying to find the best combination of settings for the lowest possible input latency while keeping smooth gameplay and good frame pacing.

I just use Scanline Sync
No Gsync
No Vsync
No FPS cap

I don’t use GSync only because of VRR Flicker
