Posts: 278 | The update does a few things, here is a list: Quote: General
# Enabled 4xAA (anti-aliasing) for 480i standard-def and 480p resolutions (was 2xAA).
# Enabled 4x anti-aliasing during initial player creation screen.
# Added player options to enable v-sync during.
# cutscenes and/or gameplay, with warning that it will affect framerate.

# Fixed issue when signing out of a gamer profile on The Wheel Woman unlock screen.
# Added missing audio tracks to music stores, including “Pickin’ Boogers.”

# Improvements to the way the game handles packet loss and bandwidth management between players. This addresses issues commonly cited as “lag”, and general synchronization problems between the players’ clients (vehicles/players warping around, etc).
# Various bandwidth optimizations.
# Fixed connection issues with gang servers (done server-side, update not required).
# The system for rating a player’s quality-of-service has been improved, and made less conservative. This means you’ll see many more matches with 10-12 player limits.

# Various changes to Matchmaking phase, to get players in the game faster.
# Team-based, non-Gang games are now required to have even teams. Gang matches still allowed to be off-by-one to allow easier matchmaking, since single people cannot be matched-in.

# Fixed crash that could happen during server migration.

# Item sync improvements.
# Fixed problem that could prevent twelve people from getting into a match due to not having enough security associations.

# Gang sizes limited to 100 members.
# Fixed cases where gangs match but not all players get into the game.
# Only servers with sufficient bandwidth are selected to host a match.

The bolded one is the main one, i helps V-Sync (tearing) It basically stops Tearing and locks the Frame Per Second to 30. And yes it is well worth it!
