How to fix Nonstop screen tearing (leggy as frick)

[PlugWalkWithMe]

I put V-Sync on during my game play and had it on full screen and all types of screens later during my experience. Then I launch the game and it makes the screen tear worse even though V-Sync is on. It is not at 60fps (60hz monitor, it's at like 12 frames) and the screen tear is very high making it unplayable. I was previously able to play the game at 1080p 60 frames. Sorry if this might be in general discussion

Dell Alienware ASM100-980 Desktop PC with Intel Core i3-4710T Quad-Core Processor, 8GB Memory, 500GB Hard Drive. The gpu is an 860m 2gb

I am planning to get a better computer with a 960m, i5 6300hq, 8GB of ram, 1TB of storage for 800$

Get desktop if you want to game, you could get a decent rig for 800$. But if mobile is something you really need I can understand.

That is true. I like to be able to bring it easily to my friends houses to play games with them

[Whatever]

Please I have a laptop Asus g751J and get +60 FPS no tearing. Just a waste of money for a desktop, heck I get a steady 30FPS on Crysis 3 Max graphics.

With Nvidia GPU there is another V-Sync,outside the game.
* Search: 'GeForce' and right click it and open up the Nvidia control panel. (It should start at the 'Adjust 3D Settings').
* Scroll down as far as you can and find the Vertical Sync. Set it to 'Adaptive'.
* Go back in-game and try the in-game V-sync on/off - If no improvement go back to the Nvidia control panel and set the Vertical Sync to 'Off' and go back in-game and repeat.

Should fix the tearing right up, otherwise it is just AlienWare that sucks (The hardware is just fine but they have issues with cooling, get a cooling pad or a Asus, - they are great).

Getting a Dell Inspiron 7559. You may say it sucks because it is dell but check the specs for that monster laptop

Didn't work

The laptop your planning on getting is weak sauce. It is slower (for gaming) than the desktop your currently have.

860m == 960m and the i5 6300hq runs at 2.8 Ghz when all 4 cores are in use.
While your current i3 with hyper threading runs at 3.7 with both cores in use

Have you looked at Eurocom or Sager? You probably could get something with a 965m for about the same price.

Edit- Lol sorry I know this post was not helpful at all with your current situation but I just couldn't help myself.
