I've been testing my new GPU in some games like Portal 2, Minecraft, Dust, etc.
But all of them have annoying tearing!
I have enabled Vsync in nvidia-settings and also in the games, but as soon as when I move the camera... my eyes suffer.
It's normal?
- Additional Information -
· OS: Mageia 4 (KDE)
· GPU: nVidia GTX 970 (latest proprietary drivers)
· Screen: TFT (1280x1024@75) and TV (1920x1080@60)

and then install compton and run it with: compton --backend glx --vsync opengl-swc
enable flipping from nvidia-settings as well
and enjoy tearfree gaming

just edit /etc/profile
(you need root access)
add the following line on top
export __GL_YIELD="USLEEP"
(this works on Arch) - hope is the same with Mageia

@Xpander
Turning off KDE compositor made things better but the tearing hasn't disappeared. By the way, ¿is it possible to turn it off from the command line?
@wolfyrion
I tried your suggestion, but nothing seems to change.
Simply by moving a windows across the screen, the tearing is clearly noticeable.

that should fix tearing completely ...at least it does for me.
edit: for tearfree movies in your TV, use the nvidia-settings > Xserver Xvideo settings and select your sync to this display device.
then use vlc or smplayer as those seem to accept those settings.

- EDIT -
Installed.
I run it with "compton --backend glx --vsync opengl-swc" from the terminal, but it returns the following error:
glx_render(): Missing texture.
Anyway the screen flashes, so I suppose that it's running. But when I move a window, the tearing is still noticeable.
What I'm doing wrong?
P.S: Thanks for all your help.

cheers for that. thatone is even better than compton trick... no perfromance hit at all it seems and makes wonders
feels like a gsync monitor now :D
the command i use:
nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="DVI-I-1: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }, HDMI-0: nvidia-auto-select +3840+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }, DVI-D-0: nvidia-auto-select +1920+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }"

Enabling "{ ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }" works even with default KDE compositor active!
Thanks Solar.
Also thanks to Xpander for all his support. ; - )
