560 GTX vsync and tearing

I've noticed that the screen tears on most games. Enabling VSYNC fixes it but I'm wondering what the real root cause of the tearing is?

All computers will have that tearing issue. That's why vsync is there. Some games are better with it because those game engines handle graphics better.
