Nvidia brings G-Sync support to FreeSync monitors

https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-brings-g-sync-support-to-freesync-monitors/

Well, I didn't see that coming. Recently LG launched 2 new ultrawide monitors 34GK950F (freesync @144hz) and 34GK950G (gsync @120hz). So because of this "update" freesync version is going to be first monitor ever working 3440x1440@144hz with sync on nvidia card? That's pretty interesting, considering that 34GK950G is 200$ more expensive.

GeForce 417.71 driver supporting this is out.
AND, it actually works. Yay!
 
Thank god I didn't got to switch my great MG278Q freesync monitor when I switched from vega64 to 1080ti. Now they just need to enable freesync on HDMI ports so my 4K tv can also have freesync!

I think Samsung only supports FreeSync for 1080p, not very useful. Are there other TVs with FreeSync?
And yes, HDMI is not supported, only DisplayPort.

This is new for me, I have Q9FN

Pretty sure the Q9 also supports 1440P@120hz. This capability is not in the manuals. All you have to do is enable UHD for that particular HDMI port in external devices menu.

Do you have an AMD card to try? Freesync option is selectable at any resolution for me.

Also, if your Q9 is like my NU8505, quality is much better when labeling the HDMI port to "game console". You gain some input latency, but its still very good. The "PC" label ruins the image quality in my TV.
 
works perfect on the AOC Q3279WG5B which isnt one of the officially supported monitors.

all i had to do was manually enable gsync in the nvidia control panel and my monitor changed to Vertical:Freesync, tried it in a few games and its smooth as silk.

I use the RTX 2070

I'm so super happy with the new drivers, having a 1080ti with 3x 32 inch curved. Still always needed to make sure FPS was above 144. But the monitors support freescal from 38 to 144 hz, so it runs great on them.
Everything is butter smooth, even could put the details higher because a small framedip is not noticable.
Best driver update in a very long time.

Use pendulum demo.
Why techology like this can"t be used with HMDs?
