    120hz and AMD FreeSync (Variable Refresh Rate)


    Hello!! I come to get help because I can not activate the 120hz and AMD FreeSync at the same time ...

    I have a monitor Iiyama GB2560HSU, AMD FreeSync, 144hz, 1080p.

    - When I put the display on HDMI, I can switch to 120hz, but I can not activate AMD FreeSync (Variable refresh rate)

    - When I put the display on DVI, I can not switch to 120hz and I can not activate AMD FreeSync.

    - When I put the display on automatic, I can not switch to 120hz, but I can activate AMD FreeSync !!

    How does this do ?? I see that others have managed to activate the 2!

    Thank you for your answers!!

    Jeremy

    :)

    Freesync and 120hz

    Hello i'am french i'am going to explain my problems, so sorry for my bad english..

    I have an xbox one S that is plugged into an alienware
    AW2518HF (240hz/freesync) screen by hdmi

    When i go to settings > display sound > video output > video fidelity and overscan if y chose on display "HDMI" after i can chose 60hz or 120hz

    BUUT in display & sound -> "Allow variable refresh rate" is grayed (freesync) ...???

    Now if i go to settings > display sound > video output > video fidelity and overscan and i chose "auto detect" i can't chose 120hz but i can enable "Allow
    variable refresh rate"

    in auto i can enable freesync but i can't chose 120hz

    in manual i can chose 120hz but freesync is grayed...

    If I plug my "Avermedia live portable gamer 2 plus" auto detection no longer allows me to activate the freesync because is grayed out..

    And if i chose 120hz I have no video since the live gamer 2 more portable beacause it allow only 1080@60. Is it possible to play in 120hz console and stream in 60hz ?

    VRR Gsync / AMD Freesync Premium

    From how understand it:

    VRR - proprietry HDMI - 2.1 standard

    Fressync - AMDs version of variable refresh rate

    G-sync - Nvidias version of Variable refresh rate - will not wotk on an Xbox as it has an AMD chip, this is for people who use the C1 as a monitor and have a PC with NVidia GPU.

    so on the Xbox just leave both options on and the Xbox will select AMD Freesync.

    FreeSync 120hz

    Currently Samsung Q8FN (and Q7F, Q9F) TVs only support 120Hz Freesync at 1080P. For more info, see the news article here.

    There are some very detailed in depth 3rd party testing results of this TV series here.

    Scroll down about half way to see the Variable Refresh Rates section.

    Bottom line 1080p will get you 120Hz Freesync, 1440p or 4K will only get 60Hz Freesync.

    Xbox one s 1440p 120hz problems

    Hi,

    This monitor only supports 100Hz over HDMI with FreeSync turned ON (higher via Display Port).

    With FreeSync OFF this monitor does support 1440p @ 120Hz as per the Manual and LG support.

    Source: https://www.amd.com/en/products/freesync-monitors

    This makes means that with FreeSync ON you will be limited to 60Hz with xbox. Can you try turning off FreeSync via the Monitor and/or untick Variable Refresh Rate on the xbox. Hopefully this makes 120Hz available to you.

    Does my tv affect FPS stability on Xbox series s?

    Hi,

    Only if your TV is a newer HDMI 2.1 set with VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) support. VRR smooths out the frames when they drop below a certain fixed rate. Without VRR, a game that is 60fps but can't quite reach its target will create duplicate frames every time it drops below 60. This will have an on-screen look of a stutter or judder, plus a quite obvious screen tear. VRR all but eliminates this.

    Games that are designed to support 120Hz (120 fps) massively benefit from VRR as many 120Hz games can't quite reach the full 120fps which again results in duplicate frames, stutter and screen tear.

    Variable Refresh Rate only works on TV's with HDMI 2.1 support and PC monitors that include AMD 'FreeSync' technology.
