Posted May 19, 2019 Hello Yesterday i got my new monitor, i am a little bit in the dark on FreeSync/Gsync. Does anyone know what is going on exactly with this new Freesync compatibility with Nvidia. And if it does affect my monitor? Thanks!

Posted May 19, 2019 If it has freesync over DP then it should be automatically enabled, and if it isnt then enable it in the Nvidia Controlpanel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: should i even bother, what would i gain?
