> can we just make it render on time?

Oh, time to go down a low-latency rabbit hole. Start here:

Some key mentions: Windows has a hardware overlay API. A hardware overlay is why the OS mouse cursor renders with low latency even with 'vsync on'.

For fullscreen, the ultimate in tear-free low latency is beam racing. Search for 'blur busters beam racing' to go down that rabbit hole.
