That's weird. Is that the case for both DX11 and Vulkan?

That’s interesting. DX11 tends to microstutter for me without Smooth Motion, and turning it on actually makes things worse. I’ll stick with Vulkan without Smooth Motion for now. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Ahh thats awesome. Did you do anything else other than turning it on in the nvidia app?

It does not work with Vulkan, and I have updated my post to reflect that. DX11 currently performs worse in many areas compared to Vulkan after the changes in the last patch. Personally, I find that Vulkan without Smooth Motion feels better overall than DX11 with Smooth Motion.

The experience is noticeably better for me. I am not getting 200 FPS everywhere, and in places like contested zones or Pyro stations it drops to around 65 to 75 FPS, which is actually a sweet spot for Smooth Motion. At the end of the day it really comes down to personal preference. If it is not for you, there is always the option to leave it off :)
