P: Cursor stuttering & screen flickering in Photoshop on high refresh rate G-sync monitors

My only solution to this so far has been changing the global setting to 'Monitor Refresh Rate: Fixed Refresh Rate'. If you are gaming or using software that uses G-SYNC, you must manually set their profiles to Monitor Refresh Rate: G-SYNC to involke it or if there's a setting that overrides that in the game preferences, use it. Adobe could easily fix this by adding an option in preferences: 'Request Max Frame Redraw (Uses more power)' to tell the GFX card to overlay a redraw layer that utilizes the maximum refresh rate of the monitor independent of the redraw capability of Photoshop. That would solve the problem of flickering on default enabled G-SYNC drivers.

I've been experiencing this issue for a few years now and the only way to fix it for me is to turn off GPU acceleration in Ps/Lr or turn off G-Sync altogether. All of my software and drivers are up to date and G-Sync is off in relevant profiles. Like a previous user said, I've been using Adobe products for years and G-Sync since 2014 and never ran into this issue until a few years back.

I am experimenting the same issue, Adobe please fix this nonesense. Just make it a priority.

Where can I find G-sync in Nvidia Control Panel?

عندى مشكله الخطوط بتفصل البرنامج

I don't have the option of 10bpc available, only 8bpc, so that workaround doesn't work for me. I had to disable gsync entirely as PS is unusable. Luckily I'm not epileptic or I'd be having a rough time. 

Guys, just enable 10bpc output color depth on nvidia control panel. Thanks everywone. 

Worked to me, thanks god. 

 Hi there! Pinging this thread again, if you're like me and want to keep adaptive sync on, try enabling older GPU mode in technology previews. Considering the description of this setting refers to GPUs that don't support DX12, maybe there's a bug in the API that's causing the problem. It does seem to either reduce performance or at the least doesn't support HFR anymore, but it's better than no GPU acceleration and lets you keep gsync/freesync enabled. Hope this helps!
