Not sure if I should post it in Open Source software or Graphics and displays, but I figured I am using Linux so I will post it here.
I built a new PC a few months ago with the following specs:
Intel Core i5-4460
AsRock H97M uATX
Saphire Radeon R7-260X (2GB)
8GB Crucial Balistix sport
The model number of my monitor is S220HQL. It is an Acer 22".
I am using DVI on both my GPU and my Monitor.
When I play Minecraft, I get pretty significant screen tearing. Even with vSync (the vSync in minecraft video settigs), I get bad screen tearing. I tried limiting my FPS to 40 (in minecraft again), no difference. I also get screen tearing in other games, when there is a lot of movement on the screen. This includes watching videos with people moving around a lot. I am running Kubuntu 14.04. I have NOT installed any GPU drivers, just the ones that came pre-installed with Kubuntu. The screen tearing is really annoying, and I am wondering how I can fix it.
