Gsync appears to be broken for next gen update?
So a LOT of the technical issues have gotten fixed now, ray tracing looks a lot better, the image looks less washed out and it's no longer crashing on exit.

The only thing left is the fact gsync doesn't work.

At any framerate below the monitor's maximum (in my case 144) it looks stuttery (unless you lock it to 60). I know this is a known issue, the stuttering fps, but I have some details to add.

It ONLY happens at 4K, and has nothing to do with ray tracing being on or off.

At 1080P the fps is locked out to 144Hz and it's all buttery smooth, but at 4K it naturally dips a bit below that to around 85fps and looks like it's about 25fps.

Gsync isn't working, that seems to be the bottom line - seeing posts about framepacing, that may well be the same thing, but framepacing or gsync, that part is still broken.

Everything else looks like it's working well now!

Yes it does. And that solution unfortunately didn't make any difference for me, thanks anyway.
