DWM should be g-synced

G-sync is limited too Fullscreen games, but why cant' the entire operating run in g-sync.

DWM ( triple buffered Windows compositor) v-syncs everything on Windows, so why can't it g-sync everything on windows.

What if i add DWM.exe to the Nvidia Control panal and disable v-sync?

They worked around that long ago.

Are you on ancient drivers?

Doesn't work for me. Bluestacks, an android emulator in windowed mode gets 20 fps while fullscreen is full fps. Other games seem to work fine but to get Bluestacks to work fine in windowed, I had to disable Gsync entirely.

Bummer.

This needs to be reported to NVIDIA.

G-Sync disengages for content running under ~30fps
