NVIDIA To support VESA Adaptive-Sync Technology, GSYNC Compatible

NVIDIA To support VESA Adaptive-Sync Technology, GSYNC Compatible

It has been a topic of long discussion but in a short and a bit of a confusing explanation, NVIDIA seems to be making a move to support adaptive sync (aka FreeSync). The feature will be enabled in future drivers, however, will only work on selected monitors.

From the looks of the monitors that are going to be supported need to be tested by NVIDIA and thus certified by NVIDIA. We're sure that is a partner certification program that needs to be paid for by the monitor manufacturers to get that new 'GSYNC Compatible' logo. So in one way or another, that might invoke a price premium. According to Nvidia this works on the 10 and 20 series.

 

 

Merely (a handful of the current 500+ monitors will be enabled support to Adaptive Sync on GeForce graphics cards. That number should expand over time. Multiple monitors have been tested and certified including monitors from Acer, ASUS, AOC, Agon and BenQ. These will get driver enabled for adaptive sync on January 15th. The certified monitors will be called ' GSYNC Compatible'.

Updated: we reached out to NVIDIA. Not certified monitors will work as well by manually enabling the mode.

Finally. It had to happen. I'm glad for the people running there cards. At least they can get a descent monitor at a good price.

So those monitors won't have GSYNC adapter in them to lower the cost? But will those panels work with AMD Freesync?

"GSYNC Compatible" makes more confusion to me.

At some point, this had to happen. Honestly, I'm curious to read reviews comparing Fsync monitors running in "Gsync mode" and "native Gsync" at some point and see if there's even a difference.

They are freesync monitors that will have a driver release to work with Nvidia cards and enable VRR.

Should have grabbed a screenshot so we could list the models that will work.

This list of compatibility isn't really that important as it's stated in the release that even if you panel hasn't passed certification yet or even failed it previously you will be able to turn it on in the driver settings anyway.
