    VSync is meant to put a cap on how high your FPS reach esbased on your screen to prevent screen tearing and computer usage. The Helios 300 supports 60FPS.

    You will get these two results when VSync is turned off. Have you tried enabling Triple Buffering with VSync? Triple Buffering should help with the input lag when VSync is enabled.

    Another option that has been pointed out (not tried by me though), is disabling Shader Cache which supposedly can help with input lag.

    No, the G3-571-3 does not have the option for Adaptive VSync. Why, I don't know, but none do.

    i turned the vsync on in the control panel and also the triple buffering but it was still off in game and my laptop was still getting pretty hot any suggestions for that thanks in advanced?

    Try disabling Shader Cache in Nvidia settings. As for heat, look at the temperature section in the sticky thread.
