Freesync fails to sync.

Hi everyone.

 

I won't bug you with a long text, the thing is really simple:

LG 29WK600-W

XFX Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB THICC III

 

Over HDMI: no issue, 8bits, no freesync.

Over DisplayPort: no issue *yet*, 10bits, freesync. BUT

 

When activating freesync, the first top 5cm of the display is tearing. Like, UGLY eye bugging tearing, I basically received my DP cable, plugged it in, activated freesync,played a fast pace video, saw that, tinkered for a while, and then disabled freesync.

And I have no idea if the screen is faulty, the cable, or graphics card, or the drivers.

 

For reference: it's a 90hz display, and for "best results" I, in the mean time, disabled freesync and configured the card to "lock" @ 90fps, no higher, no lower, in every situation. Which tends to work fine. But I would indeed prefer to just activate freesync for when I end up in situation I can't have sustained 90fps.
