- Vsync at 1/2 caps frame rate at 30, which reduces work done by GPU. this is recommended for systems that deliver between 30 and 60 fps. This results in less dropped frames when the rate changes but does not fully untilise the GPU capability. I'll turn off for now.

I also tried running at a lower resolution but no great benefit is shown from that - and that means running at full screen which is a pain if you want to use other applications at the same time.
