xfconf-query -c xfwm4 -p /general/vblank_mode -s xpresent
and restart the window manager.

xpresent method is crazy fast for gaming and no screen tearing!!! i wonder why it isnt the default method?to enable it globally add "XFWM4_USE_PRESENT=1" in /etc/enviroment
This package currently doesn't build after the xorgproto switch. Follow https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105031 for updates.
UPDATE: Fixed in xorgproto 2018.2-1.
@liviucmg Latest Xfwm4 added an option to select the compositing method:
--vblank=off|present|glx Set the vblank mode
Thanks for the heads up, will update shortly.
From git, now builds against gtk3. Please update libwnck dependency to libwnck3.
