If your monitor has 60hz for example and you get stable 60 fps, you will still get screen tearing if you don't have vsync enabled.

Even with vsync enabled it screen tears lol As long as im above my refresh rate (120hz) its fine

is it set to on, freesync, gsync?
adaptive will toggle it on/off (on when above refresh rate, off when below)

Tearing is caused by the lack of sync between front buffer and refreshes. Unless you turn on VSync you'll get tearing with any framerate.

Could be some unnessesary software that is running that came with your GPU, potentially overwriting your in-game settings. Try to disable it.

Usually it's located at the bottom-right, near your time indicator.
