I purchased the Gigabyte G27F with 144Hz, 27-inch display and AMD free-sync. I connected the DP cable from my GTX 950 GPU to my monitor. After checking the NVIDIA control panel, I noticed the Gsync option was missing. When I tried it on my friend's Windows 10 PC, it worked. My confusion is whether the issue lies with Windows 11 not displaying the option or if the GPU is too old for that feature.

It seems there was a mix-up with the hardware and software. The connection method could be DisplayPort or HDMI. Are you using the newest drivers for your system? You might have attempted to clear the DDU driver and reinstall it.

Freesync compatibility requires 10 series GPUs or higher.

No, you can't directly force enabling the GSync option or a modded driver.

Not that I've ever needed to, although I've never had to investigate it.
