G SYNC
G SYNC
You notice the device supports G-Sync while another image shows the monitor's HUD settings. There’s one option labeled adaptive sync, which I’ve enabled in the NVIDIA control panel. The G-Sync appears only when both that setting is active and the display resolution is set to DP. I’ve tried various resolutions and refresh rates via HDMI, but it still doesn’t show.
It varies based on your setup. DisplayPort 1.2a typically works with G-Sync, but HDMI VRR can also function if your monitor supports it. You'll need a GTX 16-series or newer GPU, an RTX 20-series or newer GPU, and a display that supports HDMI 2.1. A High-Speed HDMI cable is recommended for VRR. The 3050 model supports this feature. Regarding the Acer model, it offers different variants (LV, S, X, P). Could you clarify which one you're using? Also, what type of cables are you planning to use?
I'm using the cables that came with the monitor and from the photo it looks like the P version. I'm curious about how the response time works for games like CS Go—ideally around 1ms if possible, though I'm not sure when that setting is applied. By the way, the DP cable indicates version 1.2.
I believe it's a 1080p native, though that higher resolution was just a coincidence. At least the HDMI settings show more than 1080p native, and I can pick many resolutions. When I noticed there wasn't a G sync setup, I was curious and trying to figure it out…just that.
The monitor you're using has a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 at 144Hz. It won't support any higher resolution, even though Windows might claim otherwise. The display only renders up to 1080p, and it only handles G-Sync over DP, not HDMI. You'll see 1080p at most. Since it doesn't support HDMI 2.1, you can't enable G-Sync via HDMI. It's best to connect it directly with a DP cable for optimal performance.
Np. Make sure to mark the post as solved and that response as the answer.
