There might be a Vsync option enabled in your amd/nvidia options, this is different than the Vsync setting in your game. If you have Nvidia: go to your Nvidia Control Panel → Manage 3d Settings → Vertical Sync If you have AMD: Not sure where to find this exactly, but its called Dynamic V-sync or DVC. ---

Can you post your specs? Also, what are your graphics set to? People will need more info to help troubleshoot this for you. ---

If your fps is really locked on 60 (never goes higher, almost never goes lower) than I’d say that Vsync option in your Nvidia control panel is enabled. If your fps sometimes goes higher than 60, it is probably not a Vsync issue. Try to lower some settings and see if you go to 70+ fps to be sure if it has to do with Vsync or not. Also, in the Battlefield 1 menu: **Disable** GPU Memory Restriction and make sure your Resolution Scale is set to 100%. ---

I just turned off vsync in the Nvidia Control Panel. Still the same Problem! My fps are almost always on 60, only when I stand in smoke or similar they fall to about 40! I have everthing on ultra besides AA and that stuff. ---

Can you lower some settings to medium and see what happens? Just for testing purposes. Also, did you disable the GPU Memory Restriction in your BF1 advanced options? ---

Just for testing purposes. Also, did you disable the GPU Memory Restriction in your BF1 advanced options? I just lowerd it to medium and low. No change in FPS still 60! God damn what is this 💫 My Monitor is on 60 Hertz maybe thats the problem?! ---

The monitors refresh rate has nothing to do with it if you have disabled all sync options. (Vsync Gsync Freesync etc.) my guess would be that there is some sync enabled somewhere. ---

> [@mylo91\_0](#): > > Okay i just did this! Iam measuring my fps with Nvidia Shadow Play, is it maybe cause of that? Nope, I use shadow play and still hit over 100fps all on ultra. You’re running an i5 processor? Maybe it’s bottlenecking. Have you checked the temps and usage of your cpu and gpu? ---

Maybe you have a console command enabled that locks your frames to 60. I dont remember the command off the top of my head ---

Just to summarize: 1.) NVIDIA: Vsync is off 2.) InGame: Vsync is off 3.) If using a user.cfg check for gametime.maxvariablefps 60 4.) I would try running the game in Borderless mode ---
