The artifacting is not usually noticeable at high framerates (60+), but on slower machines you get tearing during fast movement because the buffer flips while the screen is only partially drawn, and then suddenly part of the frame appearing on the screen is from the last frame, part from the new frame.
It really depends what game and what system you run it on, but in general it can actually make things run and look smoother at high framerates.
