Per-Game VRR. Is there any possibility of getting it as an option?

@ngocphi. Running any game without VRR can cause screen tearing, it's not limited to 1440P and you don't need to have VRR enabled at 1440P, it's still optional.

As per the review of this monitor over on the Rtings website, the LG 27GL83A-B's maximum refresh with VRR in the form of AMD's FreeSync technology is unfortunately limited to 100Hz. This is a similar limitation to the LG 27GL850-B which I used to own before I purchased my M32U from Gigabyte. Now I use my new LG C2 OLED.

If it's anything like the LG 27GL850-B though, then it should be possible to run it at 1080P with 120Hz and VRR enabled at the same time.

Most Xbox Series X|S games are 60fps, so you won't be majorly loosing out just because you can't hit the full features of your console. And games that actually run at 120fps actually only render at around 1080P anyway.

When I set it to 120Hz by overriding it, the VRR option gets grayed out. When I set it back down to 60 Hz, i can enable VRR again. On 60Hz with or without VRR enabled, there is no stuttering. I also have tried all of these iterations with free sync enabled and disabled on my monitor.

I have the EXACT same issue from original post with LG C9 OLED and VRR on X1X. My other issue is that I can’t tell if VRR is working in any game. There is no notification given if VRR engages like there is with HDR modes. What’s a good game to test for
obvious differences?

You should call LG support and verify it supports VRR at 1440p on Xbox.

It's quite possible the electronics inside are not able to keep up with that resolution. The manual isn't clear on VRR abilities.

I disagree.

I would just leave it at 120Hz for the most part. Most games have the option in-game for either 60 or 120. I think there are only a few that lock the game to the system setting.

There won't be an adverse affect to leaving it on 120. Just make sure VRR is enabled (as long your display supports VRR).
