Just to note about the above - If nvidia-prime is used to switch to the intel gpu the xorg.conf is removed or moved to xorg.conf.xx When switching back a new xorg.conf is created which will not contain the Option "TearFree" "True" line. Whether whatever creates that xorg.conf should add the line by default is unknown here.

I'd just like to state that an update from the stable Trusty kernel (3.13.0) to a mainline kernel (Trusty .deb) (3.13.8) seems to have reduced much of the tearing, making games and applications much more usable, at least on my machine.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1260128] Re: Nvidia-prime produces unbearable visual stutter
Unfortunately this is a current limitation (to be fixed in the future) also mentioned in NVIDIA's documentation: "There is no synchronization between the images rendered by the NVIDIA GPU and the output device. This means that the output device can start reading the next frame of video while it is still being updated, producing a graphical artifact known as “tearing”. Tearing is currently expected due to limitations in the design of the X.Org X server."
