Game feels like 60 FPS at 100+ FPS?

[1337Dude]

I have a GTX 1080, playing at 1440P on a 144Hz G-Sync monitor. My steam overlay claims I'm constantly getting over 100+ FPS, but for some reason, it feels and looks more comparable to playing any other game at 60 FPS (or less). My mouse doesn't feel nearly as responsive as it does in CS:GO at 144 FPS, nor does the game's motion looks fluid. It just looks choppy and not very good.

Does anyone have an idea how to fix?

Have you tried turning everything down to the minimum to test if you can have that feels and looks you are searching for ?

If you turn down everything to minimum but you still have a feeling that there is something not ok with your frame rate or whatever... you will know.

WIth a 1080.. it should be smooth af !

Does it still feel like this in opengl, or is it just vulkan?

Add to launch options +set m_smooth 0 mb it will help

60 fps is fuild, and if your fps doesn't get lower, I'm sure you cannot see the difference beetween 60 and 100 or even 600 fps...

Well you would on a monitor that supported a higher refresh

I have the exact same problem. I was getting 100+ smooth FPS before the patch and now getting choppy movement everywhere.

Are you playing on vulkan? i noticed a forced v-sync feeling when i played on vulkan, went back to open gl and it was gone. Even tried to force v-sync off in nvidia control panel. did nothing

That's because I suspect it's running only in borderless in vulcan, even when you select fullscreen. Opengl is running fullscreen.

Borderless run with desktop composition (which is for all intents and purposes similar to vsync). If you use windows 7, you can use basic instead of aero to disable DWM. But with windows 8-10, you can't easily disable it.

things to check, out of the top of my head:

m_smooth
test different: vsync settings.
...motion blur settings.
...anti-aliasing settings.

Extremely late reply, but to anybody only just stumbling across this thread now, I just added m_smooth 0 to my launch options and it was an instant fix

Have you tried disabling the build-in chroma lighting in doom settings? It fixed the issue for me, If you have a razer keyboard.

Good catch, Razor does make frames drop. Lucky I can see all my farmes so it doesn't matter.

No worries Snake

I know it sounds silly, but have you turned off v-sync?
But to be honest....normally you shouldn't feel the difference between 60 or 100 fps.
For the mouse, i didn't have this prolem in Doom, but it is freaking annoying and experienced it in other games.
Switching to Borderless Windowed mode helped me in many cases.
