Short for Vertical Sync, Vsync is a display option found in some 3-D computer games that allow the gamer to synchronize the frame rate of the game with the monitor refresh rate for better stability. If the Vsync is turned off, gamers might obtain a higher frame rate but this action may introduce artifacts in the game.

We all need to be able to find more Artifacts in the game. I say leave VSYNC OFF!

Ya i clearly didint get that part either.

Vsync i'm pretty sure is there to keep your video card safe, if all you want is performance it's probably better to keep it off.

If you see HUGE up and downs in fps you might need a new graphic card... What's your Graphic card just for fun?
