Upsssssss !.....Vsync OFF ???????????
well after desabling VSYNC I always get DECRASED benchmark ....I made few runs on both settings V.s-off/on & always when OFF I get lower results...it must have something to do with monitor FRAMERATE because in some settings I realy get incrased performance with VSYNC OFF (800x600 , 1024x768 ... then my monitor provides 85Hz refresh but in 1280x1024 only 65 or 60 Hz)... hmmmmm !
here the bench ...
