After trying the new Microsoft (Chromium) Edge, I was having an annoying issue with screen tearing on videos played in it. While I could disable hardware acceleration to fix it - it's not ideal.  
  
After doing a bit of searching I came accross this post [here](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/new-edge-youtube-fullscreen-tearing-issue/222094b2-04e7-4e15-8096-2215efdb3d4d?auth=1). It seems to be an issue with AMD cards. I'm not aware if it is just a handful or all AMD cards and the new Edge.  
  
What fixed it for my AMD R7 360 (and for my reference for the future):  


  1. Open AMD Radeon Software Center
  2. Add Edge as a game under the Gaming tab
  3. Disable Radeon Enhanced Sync
  4. Turn Wait for Vertical Refresh to Always on
