I had heard that framerate should be capped to 3 frames below the max of the monitor.

Do I then go and disable in game vsync, and manually enable Vertical Sync through Nvidia "Manage 3D settings" on a game by game basis? Is on the one I should use or fast for the Vsync setting through NVIDIA control panel?

Or should I just stick with in game vsync?

GSync requires VSync to be turned ON or you will still get some minor tearing usually near the bottom of the screen. The Frame Cap is used to never actually use ONLY VSync with it's input lag increase once your FPS hits the max refresh rate.
