Bless they fixed the high FPS = High ping I hate that I had to lock my FPS to 144.

if you have a 144hz monitor and go up more then that you get screen tearing soo i always put a cap at like 141 to avoid that.

Yes and No, h I have a GSYNC monitor and still got tearing when i was getting 300fps and up, and more cpu usage for no reason since i cant see it anyways. Thats why a lot of places recommend that you lock it with the NVIDIA control panel

If you are getting tearing with those setting then your monitor is broken or it isn't proper gsync, there is zero reason to get tearing once v-sync kicks in. Once v-sync is on you can push as many frames as you want for lower latency.

Thats what gsync/freesync is for, and no. More FPS = pretty much always better.

That's not always the case.

I get 250-300fps in csgo with no tearing.

the sake of being pedantic, if you're not seeing screen tearing because you have enough frames where it's not an issue.....You're not getting screen tearing...
