There's no need for vsync if you're running the game in a borderless window. It's nature's triple buffering.

Any advice for me right now before i start playing with my rig ?
I7 5820k
16 GB DDR4
980ti
Gsync 1440p monitor
I should fullscreen it and turn vsync off ?
Unlock the framerate or keep it 60?

But the game tears like insane even in borderless.

Ah that's very true. Since I've had it off, I'd say on average 90 FPS? Game is fucking awesome. I'm not noticing any tearing either.
Well, adaptive would just stay disabled because you're never hitting 144 fps. Regular v-sync will limit you to 144, 72, or 48 fps and so on. If there's a triple buffering option try that, as long as you don't mind a bit of occasional judder.

Game does not like recording software.

Yeah i've tried everything and it doesn't work right at all.
This is on
4790k 4.7ghz
980ti at 1500
16Gbs 2400mhz
its literally unstreamable for me
It absolutely does. Shooting, picking up items, landing after a high jump, and everything else in between produces vibrations of varying intensities.
I am using an Xbox One controller, by the way.
The matter of SLI support has already been addressed, but just so you don't think I ignored you: I don't have SLI. I did, many moons ago, but not any more.
Strange. It doesn't for me.

Definitely tears for me in borderless, only notice it during the scripted camera sequences though. Also was an issue with Wolfenstein.

just played about an hour and i have i5 2500k 3.3, 16 gb ram, r9 390. game is pretty smooth for me. it defaulted me to mostly high/ultra settings (on 1080p) but some medium. i was getting about 75+ fps in most areas. i changed ALL the settings to ultra and i was still getting the same fps.
the only thing that dropped it significantly was enabled vsync. dropped it to 30fps
Got a i5-4670 and a GTX 760 2GB and gotta say I'm quite disappointed with performance.
Even at 720p the game has this weird chugging or stutter effect even when it's running at around 60fps. It's like the game is loading in stuff or something. Very disappointing. Weird as the beta didn't have this.
It ruins the smooth flow of the gameplay.
Tried turning down texture page file nut no apparent effect.

Finally was able to get some footage.
Game runs great on my setup.

^there is an idea if you have a similar setup to:
4690K
980 Ti
16GB RAM
SSD's

I deleted the file "boot_sequence" from DOOM>base>video.

Got everything on high pretty much.
Getting 50 to 60 fps consistently. It drops to 45fps during particle intensive situations.
Pretty nice.
Hoping Vulkan gives me at least 10 more frames.

Thanks for the reply. How about a 980ti?
Also I mistyped, I actually have 8GB ram - enough?

New Nvidia driver out including optimization for Doom. It's currently not at their download page yet. The d/l links can be found on their forum:

DOOM appears to have frame pacing issues. Even when it's running at a solid 60, something feels slightly off. Love the game, though. Enjoying it a lot!

I'm really impressed at how well it runs for me in 4K. I'm getting at least 40 and usually closer to 50-60 fps on my heavily OC'd 980 Ti with the Ultra preset. I can't stand motion blur so I have it turned entirely off, everything else is maxed including the highest AA which is called like TSSA 8x or something. This game is optimized like a dream, Id really took their PC work seriously. It runs great and looks fabulous, I almost feel the crunching of skulls from these glory kills.
Maybe that's what I'm experiencing? Even when the game runs at around 60fps there's this weird stutter or chugging that disrupts the smoothness of the game. Really annoying.
So infuriating that consoles don't have to deal with this. Almost makes me want to buy the ps4 version.

Where my 980 ti homies at?? How's performance?
365.10 drivers, not the recently-released 365.19s.
Talk about a nice surprise.

Oooh, cool. Wonder if that will be a patch or part of the new NVIDIA drivers. Really want to play more but definitely want it to be as smooth as possible.

This is lovely.
Ultra details, goes between 60-144fps, but with G-Sync it feels butter smooth the whole time. This is a serious PC gaming game, loving it. The visuals, music, gun play, hit feedback - its all good. Played the first SP level w/o any hiccups or problems.

I've streamed it perfectly, set shadow play to record desktop and away you go.

I have not noticed any framepacing issues. The game is completely smooth for me and the frame time display you can activate confirms that.

I did that with OBS to make it work earlier. Maybe the new Nvidia drivers will fix the issues completely.

Some are probably more sensitive to that kind of thing. Someone else mentioned they were probably experiencing something similar. The Steam forums are also filled with people saying similar things. It's very smooth, but there is this weird...stutter is probably the wrong word, but at times, the game feels it's running worse than the frame counter would indicate.

I just bought the game so I can't check how much vram it uses but your problem sounds like you're running out of vram. Try lowering the texture quality instead of resolution.
But which option does that exactly? The game doesn't have a texture quality option.
There's virtual texturing page size which I've tried turning down to medium but no noticeable difference.
There's also Resolution Scale which I have not tried messing with.
Decal quality, I assume, given that decal filtering offers options you'd associate with texture filtering. Reducing shadow quality may also notably drop VRAM usage.

2GB of Vram is simply not enough for the game. It'll run ot of it with virtual texturing page size at low and than you get a hiccup.
Lowering the resolution scale will make the game render at a lower res and than it upscales it to your native resolution. It should help lowering the memory required to run, but the image quality will be butchered.
I'm sorry I don't quite understand what you mean here.
The game runs even with virtual texturing page at high, though as mentioned I do get a strange stutter or chugging effect. And you're saying I should put Virtual Texturing to low and still get the hiccup? I guess I don't quite understand the advice.
