Input lag with V-sync on BF4. Is there any fixes?

I get a really terrible input lag when I lock my fps with V-sync in game. Cant handle input lag, I need that aim to move at the exact time I move my mouse.

How can I fix this? Lock to 60 fps without input lag or screen tearing?

I've tried to lock fps on console and on AMD settings. Still no luck :/

What to do?

Not much you can do. Lower your video settings and turn off Vsync is about the best you can do. This is what the new AMD and Nvidia (FreeSync/Gsync) combats against. The monitor syncs its refresh rate with the graphics card's render rate to avoid screen tearing.

Or get a 120 hz monitor :P But that have to wait.

If you are going to go with that route, you should get the Asus VG248QE. It's a 144hz 1080p 24" Monitor. I have one and it's amazing to game on. Un-cap the FPS of every game and have Vsync on. Never worry about Screen Tearing or Input Lag.

Im sure it is :) Buy the only game i go over 120 fps is on CS:GO

So I dont see the need of an 144 Hz monitor if my hardware cant deliver 100 fps constant on medium settings on bf4

Sure you do! It's for when you CAN deliver that performance!

VERY easy to do. if you are running VSYNC.... and at 60FPS... find a software like riva tuner statistic server and CAP your fps to 1 below your refresh rate. voila ! no more input lag!

im running 75hz monitor and capped my fps to 74 with vsync.. 0 input lag.

Come on, man...100 fps? On BF4 at "medium" settings? But hey, settle for the input lag :)

144hz is like a wet dream. And G-Sync is primarily aimed to help those that want to experience the exact type of game play that you're talking about (with a GPU that can't push enough FPS to match a higher refresh rate).

It's also targeted for the nerds like me that can push a game like Doom at Ultra / Nightmare settings and uncapped FPS at a consistent 120-130 frames and have a monitor with a refresh rate of 165hz :)

You're able to push Doom at 120 FPS on Nightmare with a single 980Ti?!?

G sync is awesome. I have a G sync monitor, play FPS games like all day and i dont get any input lag, but if you cant live without v sync and you cant afford a G sync monitor for whatever reason, there are other ways to reduce input lag, using a wired connection if your using wireless atm is a big one, on local servers i get around 50ms of latency, which is about 4 frames on a 60Hz monitor, wired i would probs get well under half that.
If your not using a gaming mouse, its probs time to get a good one. since there can easily be a big difference in latency between a crap one and a decent one.

1 980ti doom 120fps nightmare at 1080p is pretty easy, its if you go over that it gets a little harder :p

I thought BF4 was more CPU then GPU. Thats why AMD came up with mantle feature for API.

My dream is to have hardware that can push all BF4 and BF1 to max at everything. Hardware, monitor, servers etc.

Might have to order a new build if i want that -..- Someone told me that I dont have many other options with my PC due to my motherboard. Idk, Im as far away as a PC guy you could get when it comes to putting together PC and make it good :P

LOL, building one aint that hard, it depends on what you are going for budget or by a certain limit. But when it comes to certain games sometimes and just sometimes they tend to have problems no matter what rig you use even if its a super high end one.

Theres usually workarounds, in my case i run this game at ultra, but i do get freezes however i believe theyre made by CPU not using all the 4 cores like the game should do, but it doesnt.
