Does it work on Kepler and Maxwell series?

I have a FreeSync monitor but can't see anywhere to enable Gsync? Can anyone help me?
I have GTX 1060 and IIYAMA ProLite XB3270QS-B1 monitor.
I don't see anything about adaptive sync in specs here: https://iiyama.com/gb-en/products/prolite-xb3270qs-b1/
Does it work on Kepler and Maxwell series?
Pascal and Turing only.

That feeling when your verified monitor is worse than the non verified monitors on this topic. Feels bad.

Again, no adaptive sync support on this display according to the specs: https://www.benq.ee/product/monitor/xl2411z/specifications/
It's also highly unlikely that Gsync will work over anything but DisplayPort for now.
I can use the gsync feature on a BenQ xl2411z 144hz with dvi dual link?

I guess it's finally time to upgrade and buy a freesync monitor. My current monitor is a Dell U2715H.
I'll be camping on this thread to make sure that I buy the right one.
I'm looking for a reasonably-priced 27" to 32" IPS 1440p freesync monitor.

I look forward to testing my old AOC G2460PF (24" TN 1920x1080@144Hz) some time this week. One of the cheapest displays when it launched 3 years ago and my first VRR screen. Around 190-200 Euros back in Black Friday 2018 was quite nice, despite it being TN. Since then I've moved over to both a Acer XB271HU as well as an X34A.

Here's hoping that this inadvertently fixed DX12 issues in Rise too...
That's the goal of gsync/freesync/adaptivesync: eliminate screen tearing and input lag from Vsync.
No reason not to use it unless you experience some issues like flickering or display blinking with it on.
: Fixed occasional application crash in DirectX 12 mode.

There's a bunch of new support articles in NV's KB on Gsync Compatible btw:
Do G-SYNC Compatible displays work on both DisplayPort and HDMI with GeForce GPUs?
Do NVIDIA GeForce display drivers support frame doubling on G-SYNC Compatible displays?
Does variable refresh rate work across mixed monitor configurations?
What are the system requirements for G-sync Compatible display technology?
I own an Adaptive Sync monitor that is not on your G-SYNC Compatible list. Can I enable variable rate refresh anyways?

Does not really make too much sense to me because:
- the currently available VGA cars all have HDMI 2.0 (so, if going outside of official HDMI specs is such an issue for nVidia, then their driver should require HDMI 2.1 on the VGA card side as well)
- pretty much all currently available TVs with VRR capability use HDMI 2.0 (with features either "back-ported" from HDMI 2.1 specs or "borrowed" from AMD FreeSync specs --- I am not sure which one, or if these are effectively the same)
However, I always expected nVidia to support VRR on TVs with future HDMI 2.1 VGA cars (turing-refresh?) only, so this wouldn't be a big surprise.
Besides, LG is unlikely to release firmware updates with VRR capabilities for their 2018 OLEDs (like my current C8), so I am not in a rush (and I feel like trying some Radeon cards again if the crypto market starts recovering and I find myself wanting to build a little hobby farm yet again).
I read g-sync is supported over HDMI but only if the device supports 2.1.

now it is clear, that adding about 150-200 € for g-sync monitors was robbing the users.

I would call it self-robbing.

What does that mean? NV didn't promise anything on VRR support over HDMI yet. It's possible that Turing will end up being HDMI 2.1 compatible and in that case they may enable adaptive sync over HDMI on Turing but it's more likely that we'll have to wait for the next gen GPUs to get HDMI 2.1 outputs.
Which is why there's a chance of NV enabling HDMI VRR over 2.0 in the future as HDMI Forum has officially allowed to implement some 2.1 specifications in 2.0 devices and VRR is among these.
With only 12 out of 400 adaptive sync displays passing NV's Gsync compatibility tests, it's clear that it's the opposite really.

LG 38" ultrawide XR382CQK works great. It's super smooth.
However, freesync is not selectable when HDR on monitor is enabled. Am I supposed to be allowed to choose either one of these 2 feature and they cannot be enabled together? It's freesync 1 monitor if that matters.
