Low latency mode in Nvidia 3D settings menu, do you turn it on or off?

Is there any side effects to turning it on?

I definitely prefer to leave V-sync ON and G-Sync ON also both I need and love.

How do you run your gaming on 4k 144hz? Low latency mode ON or ON-Ultra or OFF?
 
Check the blurbusters forums (or elsewhere) for more in-depth info, but, if I'm remembering correctly:

You want LL/ULL on when running G+VSync if you are reguarly hitting high/max GPU utilization. UltraLL automatically enforces a sub-refresh rate FPS cap so having it on removes the need to manually set one elewhere, and if a game has Reflex support, that'll override LL/ULL (since it's implemented in the game engine instead of at driver level), so it doesn't matter what you have LL set to if you're running Reflex in-game.

I personally run with ULL on since most games I play are usually hitting pretty high GPU utlization (4k/120Hz/RTX4090), either by their own accord, or because I crank up the resolution scale.
 
Thanks for the response Doubletake.

Why do you use ON and not Ultra Little buddy?

The reason I use "On" is DX11 games aren't that demanding for a 4090 and I limit my frames to 116 since I'm on a 120Hz 4K Display. "Ultra" is for DX11 games where your GPU Utilization is 95-100%. "Ultra" is worse latency than "On" if your GPU usage is less than 95%.

Well that explains my game lagging out and glitching for no reason cause I was only at 60% utilization and had it on ultra. Good that you said this I was baffled because I forgot I turned it on to ultra lmao
