GTA5 Enhanced Mouse-look Eyestrain
Hey all, this is a very hard to describe issue I'm having..
I was playing GTA5 Enhanced the other night for the first time and I'm noticing a very strange thing, the game itself seems to be running nice and smooth but the mouse-look has this almost sort of a micro-stutter or like it's running at a slower fps then the rest of the game. It kills my head and make me feel like I have a migraine. I'm thinking it might be happening in Hitman World of Assassination Trilogy as after playing the game for about 2 hours I had a terrible headache too.
It's not low frame-rate. I'm getting around 86fps in GTA5 Enhanced with everything maxed out. Though I wll say, I still don't understand why 60fps looked butter smooth on my old LCD display, but now looks like a framey mess similar to what 30fps used to look like on my new QLED 200hz display. Yes it's operating below its capacity but I wouldn't expect an old frame-rate to look worse just because the new display is capable of more.
Anyway my monitor is set for 144hz, I have G-sync enabled with vsync turned on in game. I've tried playing with the FPS limit set in game and at different rates, or just having it uncapped. I've tried it with vsync on and off. I've tried it with Gsync on and off. I've tried lowering and raising my Hz setting..
Anyone know whats going on here?

It can feel smoother technically, but it can't look smoother than your monitor refresh rate. I don't think that is what's causing your mouse problem though.

GTA and a lot of other games will render the ui at a lower fps, that's probably what your noticing.

I'd cap it at a lower frame rate, like 90 FPS. You might try Windows mouse input instead of RAW in the GTA menu settings.
Tried all that already, nothing.

unplug everything from your USB ports that isn't your mouse or keyboard.

terminate everything in taskbar, your mouse software, your keyboard software, all of it.

that's gotta fix it

edit: are you using windowed borderless?

My window borders are guarded by ICE and a Trump Wall.
Did You know that my wife, she never even knew I drank until I came home sober one day....
