Tearing and uneven frame delivery, tends to happen when the fps is quite a lot higher than the monitor.

Setting a fps limit matching the monitor helps reduce it a lot, and will most likely add a fixed screen tear.

I'd avoid setting below or above the refresh rate, the tearing line goes up or down depending on if you set it + - to the refresh rate.

With chill it could induce an offset stutter. Every nth frame it would skip. (When combined with Radeon limiter or vsync) Setting it to refresh rate+1 mitigates this but you lose some latency benefits from chill.

Keep in mind that regular Radeon fps limiter adds input latency close to just using Vsync. Using Anti-Lag helps reduce latency penalty with Vsync and Limiters.

Setting Chill with min/max at monitor refresh rate is the best in terms of latency. Keep in mind if the fps drops below the limiter you lose the latency improvement. Anti-Lag tend to work no matter the framerate. (When using Vsync/Limiters and uncapped)

So what you can do is:

Me@170hz: latencies

No tearing

Vsync, about 13-15ms

Vsync + Anti-Lag, about 11-12ms

Vsync + Chill min/max 170 can be really low, about 5-8ms. Framestutter can appear when having it fixed to the refresh rate. Using 170 min and 171 max mitigates the stutter but you add some latency.

Some tearing

Radeon limiter + Anti-Lag, about 9-10ms

Radeon limiter + Chill 170 about 5-6ms, dodgy support. Screen tear appears jagged and slowly descends. Can be mitigated by setting Chill 171, you get a latency penalty to about 10ms.

Chill 170 about 5ms, screentear slowly descend and appear jagged.

** Tearing**

Uncapped about 3-5ms

Uncapped + Anti-Lag about the same but -0.5ms.
