Enabling v-sync caps my frame rate at 30 and it is fixed. My machine is quite old and it is not that i get much frames by disabling it ( i get around 8-15 fps more but if the situation is too heavy, i might even get lower than 30) but maybe people with good machines have it too low.

Are you certain this is a bug? Sounds to me like it’s working as intended. V-Sync: What Is It - And Should You Use It?
