While AMD enables FreeSync for Fullscreen Windowed BitBlt surfaces, Nvidia allows G-Sync to run with <i>any</i> window.

This is problematic because refresh rate can get synchronized to wrong windows, framerate may break on other displays and display stutters may occur.

D3D9 loses the graphics device if it loses the screen ownership (Alt-Tab, Sleep, etc.). To recover, it needs to either have a copy of textures in RAM, or be able to reconstruct the memory from ground up.

Fallout: New Vegas, like most D3D9 games, use the first method. Thus by disabling this behavior, after Alt-Tabbing, game is in a limbo where it doesn't know what to do.

You always want your FPS capped by a <strong>limiter instead of being hardware bound</strong>, this will reduce lag and increase power efficiency. It is also less jarring for the player when visual smoothness is the same across all scenes.
