Staying in VRR Range: Set the Max Frame Rate slightly below the maximum refresh rate of your display to stay within the Variable Refresh Rate range - providing a no-tear, low system latency experience! For the smoothest, no tear experience, set the low latency mode to Ultra and turn VSYNC on. To maximize latency reduction in GPU bound scenarios where FPS is consistent, set Max Frame Rate to a framerate slightly below the average FPS and turn Low Latency Mode to Ultra. While in this mode, the GPU is kept at higher frequencies to process frames as quickly as possible. Reducing System Latency: Enable Max Frame Rate and set your power management mode to “Prefer maximum performance” to reduce latency. If either of these modes are enabled at the same time as Max Frame Rate, the NVIDIA Control Panel will cap the framerate to the lowest of the limits.
For laptop users, Max Frame Rate also works alongside with Battery Boost and Whisper Mode. While in this mode, GPU frequency is reduced and uses less power. Some consoles may not need updating at all. The lists may vary from console to console. At the same time a list of panels that require updates should appear in the Auto Update list box as indicated below.
Saving Power: Enable Max Frame Rate (NVIDIA Control Panel > 3D Settings > Max Frame Rate) and set your power management mode to “Optimal Power”(NVIDIA Control Panel > 3D Settings > Power Management Mode). After about 2 minutes all panels should be in boot mode and re-appear in the Connected Panel list box with a red spanner icon.
This feature is particularly helpful when trying to save power, reduce system latency, or keep within a specific Variable Refresh Rate range on a G-SYNC or G-SYNC Compatible display. Now, you can set the max frame rate for a 3D application or game.
