Yeah, it's looking more and more like sending a bug report to Nvidia is the best thing to do.
Have you guys confirmed that this issue it doesn't occur with AMD? If I remember correctly, I saw someone complaining about this same issue with an AMD GPU...
I don't have any devices with an AMD card. This laptop is all I have.
I always thought OGL already had exclusive fullscreen since there was tearing in fullscreen before the exclusive fullscreen merge.
If there was no exclusive fullscreen, there would've been no tearing since the desktop compositor would have taken care of that.
In build 2540 there was no tearing. In the next build (exclusive OGL fullscreen) there's tearing.
I know of maybe one computer I can try to see if it has an AMD GPU to test
If you're more and more convinced that it's a driver bug, you could try rolling back to a really old driver version to see if it makes any difference. You'll probably experience a significant performance drop, though, if you have to go back further than 332.x to find drivers that don't have the v-sync bug.
That means I have to dig through Nvidia archives.........
I'll probably have time this weekend.
I don't get tearing with my Nvidia 760. I get tearing only if I have adaptive vsync selected on nvidia inspector (I have that on my global profile). I created a Dolphin profile and changed that setting to "Standard", and it worked fine. I didn't even have to force vsync, I simply enable it in the emulator.
You have a desktop card. We're all on laptops with Optimus switcher between Intel HD and Nvidia
Someone asked if another person had mentioned AMD and desktop graphics?I had actually mentioned it happening on my Radeon 6870, but on further testing I found the CCC had a few settings improperly configured, and trying to change them had no effect. Reinstalling fixed it, so now it's only an issue on my laptop.
