    I experience an insane amount of screen tearing when playing injustice gods among us, my config is GS60 4K 970m 3 GB. I've tried different screen resolutions to no avail. Changing it to windowed mode helps a bit but there's clearly still screen tearing, I've turned on v sync as well. Any help is appreciated :)

    What driver are you running? Updating or rolling back the driver would be the first place I would start.

    I'm a bit weary updating the driver, especially after OC was disabled. do you know which new driver re-enables the OC again?

    I've never bothered with OC since I'm very happy with performance as it is. But, I'm running the latest 347.52 Nvidia WHQL driver and have had no problems. I don't have the 4K screen that you have and I have the 860m model...so what works for me may not apply to you. Hope you can find a good solution.

    Hey, no problem. Wish I could have helped more. I know there have been some growing pains with some of the new 4K screens so that's a possibility also. Generally when I've dealt with screen tearing in the past, it's either been driver or game related. Hope you get it figured out. Take care.
