Where did you buy it and when?

 

When you spoke to GeForce what exactly did they say, because there is a difference between a G-Sync monitor and a G-Sync compatible monitor.

 

Your GPU is FreeSync compatible in any event according to these people:

 

https://blurbusters.com/gsync/supported-graphics-cards/

 

So no need to buy anything.

I can see why you may have had some difficulty getting responses before.

 

What did GeForce say when you contacted them?

 

This is a Gigabyte product, it is highly unlikely that they are falsely advertising their product.  It is more likely a configuration issue that you need to address.

 

Are you using a Display Port cable to the monitor?

"but i can still enable it but it wont work"

 

How have you tested this?

 

I doubt very much that GeForce told you to buy an AMD GPU when the GPU you have is FreeSync compatible on that monitor, as is the rest of their range after the 900 series.

 

Can you copy and paste the email they sent you? Or are you talking about someone in a shop told you this?

i have tested games and the demos of bechmarks and g sync is not working still get stutter and tearing but yet i do get stutter even with v sync or with out it but i know its a sync issue with games not the pc its self cause i got many computers and other parts before in my years and still the same issue i just never got a free sync or g sync screen untill now but as you see in the control panel of nvidia i have it enabled thats what i ment by enabled if i disable freesync this set up g sync box goes away so i have freesync on in my screen settings like the monitor it self but even if g sync disabled i tryed enableing freesync in the monitor settings and still stutter and screen tearing worse then if im using v sync so i know its not working but if i use v sync and the fps drops lower then the refresh rate i will get alot of stutter every time the frame drops so

You don't get the option to enable G-Sync without G-sync being there.

 

Your problem has nothing to do with your monitor. Your monitor has told the drivers correctly that it is Gsync, your GPU drivers have recognised it as a Gsync monitor.


If something else is going on, it isn't your monitor.

 

I didn't read your post, it was too much trouble, but the image alone was enough to tell me the above.

Double posting and reposting isn't allowed.

Grrrr, I lost the post I jsut wrote :P

 

To OP:

 

You can try testing it here:

https://www.testufo.com/gsync

 

If you can't see it working, then reinstall your drivers.


You should have Gsync, there is no reason it shouldn't work that I can see.

If you have the enable G-sync button, then tick that button, it should be on.
