Mafia 3 help please

lol that OK stn and nicetomeetyou the only thing that was performance heavy bit was the game when it was running and i played the game but i realised an issue when was playing with the settings on the game that is when i have v sync on thats when it gets choppy for some reason so i took the vsync off and it gave me more fps and wasnt choppy and i could play in fullscreen which was strange lol because i thought v sync stoped screen tearing there were few tiny tears when i took it off hardly ever but i didnt hardly ever noticed it so maybe i could just play the game like that give more fps and can be played at fullscreen maybe theres a bug with v sync lol i dunno maybe the game dont like it when i have v sync and infinity on at same time because it didnt do that when i played it through steam which was strange but anyway hope hear from you soon

Are you using a Nvidia or AMD card? I always turn off V-sync in every game never had issues with sceen tearing.
You could try turning it off in the game but force it via the graphics driver if the screen tearing is bothering you. That may fix it aswell, other way around could be also possible. Anyways good to know you found the reason behind it. I will remember it and if somebody asks about the same problem I will tell them you found maybe a Solution

No problem :smiley: Like I said never had issues with screen tearing and I’m not using any expensive bullshittery as a monitor.
You should be alright^^
