i m using an LG 22 inch panel which support freesync at 75hz. I m also using a GTX 1060 which dont support freesync obviously.

 

But how my LG panel shows 75hz with freesync enabled with G-force GPU?

 

I am wondering, if nvidia dont support freesync then how my monitor running at 75hz. 

 

Then when I switch to 60hz, that is different then 75hz.

Maybe I misunderstand the question. The monitor has a maximum refresh rate regardless if FreeSync or G-sync are used. That's the 75 Hz.

Indeed, that has nothing to do with Freesync in this case.

You shouldn't be seeing "Freesync / Freesync enabled w/e" in the OSD of your monitor, you should be able to check it from there. The 1060 won't do it.

You can't, either something else is going on or you're fooled into Freesync working. Do a 3DMark to see if you're Freesync enabled, it'll most likely say No.

How to check with 3DMark?

It lists V-sync, G-Sync etc.. at the end of a FireStrike and shows you whether they were enabled or not during the test.

Your monitor likely says Freesync enabled in the menu but it most likely is not functional, since you're using a 1060.

What is the exact model of the monitor? 

 

I still don't see any problem here. Just because a feature is enabled doesn't mean it is being used.

I second the two above comments, the monitor has the function enabled for the ready for supported video cards to use if they have the function enabled as well. However since your card does not support this function, it is not used at all but the monitor will leave it enabled since it has no control of the freesync protocol other than enabling its own support of the function, it is then up to the card to utilize this function if it supports it

When I switch to 75 hz (that means freesync enable) color depth changes, black are more black.

You're probably having the monitor's colors re-calibrated when you change that, it might be doing a mode switch concurrently.
