Tearing issues tend to be problems of the application, compositor, or Xorg. Nothing the driver can do much about, unfortunately. Xorg in particular is pretty bad at tearing with multi-monitor setups.

Some DDX drivers handle tearing (implementing vsync). Tearing is basically not a problem at all on Wayland compositors since the spec addresses it directly (from what I understand)
