My game has been capped at 60 FPS, ever since the latest Nvidia driver update.

I've tried rolling back drivers, beta drivers, reinstallation with driver wipes (clean install).

I've toggled GeForce Control Panel's vsync settings for global and MWO specifically, toggled MWO's built in vsync option, raised and lowered graphical settings. Nothing seems to let my frame rate run with my real refresh rate on my monitor.

I have a 75Hz monitor and until recently I was at 75FPS when Vsync was on, now even if I remove all Vsync at all levels, the game will never budge above 60 FPS.

Maybe you need to adjust the Nvidia MechWarrior game profile? It could be over riding your other settings.

As stated in my post, I have already gone over that.

Is your system seeing your Monitor correctly? Do you have the .inf (driver) for your monitor installed? Tried reinstalling it?

Yes, I've already installed my monitor's drivers.

Do you get higher rates in other games?

I run my games at Vsync, which again should be 75, and they hold that. Guild Wars 2, Minecraft, 7 Days to Die, and some others.

Just checked my game and mine is staying at around 60 FPS as well. Never even noticed, all I noticed was that my game was running smooth as a baby's bottom. So what, 60 FPS isn't good enough for you? Gotta have that extra 15 FPS that probably won't even increase your performance enough for human eyes to detect? I'll never understand why people get all in a tizzy over high FPS like this.

He said he has a 75hz monitor and the vsync is not working for him. Even if 60fps would be "good enough" it is in fact broken.

Yes, and no. It depends on the person and what you are viewing. Some people are more sensitive to frame rate changes in particular if they are big swings even if over the "limit". A higher stable frame rate looks a lot smoother and causes less eye strain for a lot of people. Now the difference between 60 and 75 is negligible at best, but I can understand why the OP is confused about being capped now unlike before.

Mine's always pegged at 60FPS, just figured that was best MWO was going to do. Most my other games run much faster fps... but as others mentioned.. I get nice smooth performance at the 60 from my 980Ti so really never cared to look into it. However, if someone does figure out the glitch if one, much obliged to read it here... Posted Image

DX11 in MWO seems to force a max of 60HZ. Try dx9

If it works outside of MWO then Vision's suggestion with DX11 would be a good idea.

I've had it at 75 FPS in the past though... Oh well. Thanks for those who assisted, and to the trolls, stop wasting everyone's time with attempts at starting flame wars.

What do you mean flame wars. Mechwarrior isn't even battletech and pgi spends the millions they make off this game in a casino. Also I've heard they are tremendous drunks who shoot baby squirrels while they code.

Lol as if they could code. And yeah I've heard about the squirrels too, but pgi isn't even a good enough shot to hit the babies. So they shoot pigeons instead then they eat them on golden plates in their palace at disneyworld florida. Like I dunno why they don't just switch engines and buy a bigger tree. They'll kill more baby squirrels that way. Also I hear on the entrance to pgi it says "Arbeit macht frei" in gold, of course.
