I never understood why people would want tearing. It's such a bad experience.

Competitive games, usually. It is supposed to provide lower latency.

I agree tearing sucks though and I wouldn't go back to it.

If you dont have VRR, its the only way to get acceptable latency for competitive games.

Any signs of Nvidia implementing this?
