Mine stopped working in some games but works on the desk top. 

 

It was working fine most of last year but did not work well then the feature was introduced.

 

My other gaming computer that uses a G-sync comparable TV is working fine.

Both computers use the same i7 8086ks and 2080 tis with the same motherboard. The main difference are the monitors.

 

If you don't have it download the Nvidia Pendulum app. https://www.nvidia.com/coolstuff/demos#!/g-sync

Run it full screened and widowed mode. Make sure you check "enable settings for the selected display model" in the Nvidia control panel. Mine did not work at all without it.

 

For me G-sync in the  the Pendulum app works in widowed mode but not in full screen. The games that don't work where in widowed mode but work when I change to full screen. 

Not really making sense but I at least I have a workaround. 

------------

I just read on the G force forums that downloading a monitor driver, in my case from LG, fixes it and it did for me. 

I hope you can get the same result.

Same for me. Was working fine, got an nvidia update like 3months ago, stopped working in some games, windowed fine, full screen not and vice versta etc. Thinking of switching to either proved compatible or just gsync..

Strange stuff.

Must be a driver issue.

First replace the HDMI cable with the DisplayPort cable, the enable freesync on the monitor's OSD menu. Now you will see a G-Sync option on Nvidia Control Panel. Follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDFo2FNqyt8
