but it seems like a pain in the ass switching from lightboost on and off. Im not sure i could even tell the different, I play call of duty 2 most of the time when i get home.
Some notes:
-- You can make it easy to turn on/off LightBoost by adding a non-Lightboost 144Hz mode (add it in ToastyX, use "Reduced" instead of "Auto"). That way, switching between 120Hz and 144Hz turns on/off LightBoost.
-- You need 120fps@120Hz to really benefit from LightBoost. It doesn't really help 60fps@120Hz.
-- Try testing Adaptive VSYNC. LightBoost makes a bigger difference with it, than with VSYNC OFF.
