    Hi everyone! I have the following question regarding this topic: The Automobilista User Manual states that "it is very important to set this to 1, because failure to do so can cause stuttering". R3E being also a DX9 game with a similar base, does it help performance-wise to set this option also to 1 in RaceRoom's NVIDIA profile?

    Imo best to just try it out, PCs are so diverse in their configurations, what works for some, may not work for others. That said I use 1 for both games.

    I agree, but I didn't notice any significant difference to be honest, so I thought I'll ask to see what others think.

    I would think that setting this to 1 could in theory cause stuttering, not *not* setting it at 1. But setting it at value higher than 1 could cause lag.

    At least that's how I always understood this setting - the lower the value, the higher the possibility of stutter, but the higher the value, the higher the possibility of more lag.
