    How do you enable FreeSync?


    I have a FreeSync capable monitor and a high speed HDMI cable connected. In the monitor options, FreeSync is grayed out like it is not active. Does something need to be enabled on the X1X? Thanks.

    :)

    How do you enable cloud storage?

    Are you trying to install GTAV? If so you would need an official Microsoft hard drive or a USB flash drive with at least 8GBs of free space. You cannot install GTAV to the cloud

    How do you enable FreeSync?

    Hi HeyBlanket,

    How are you connecting to your monitor? Are you passing your HDMI through any adapter or receiver before it hits the monitor? Can you let us know what make / model monitor you have? It looks like the monitor has to be Freesync 2 with HDMI 2.1. If you're
    passing your HDMI through any device like a receiver, switch, or converter, I would recommend trying with the Xbox One X plugged directly into the monitor.

    let us know!

    Thank you for replying. My monitor is an Asus VP28UQG. The X1X is connected directly to the monitor via high speed HDMI cable.

    I also have an Asus VP28UQG monitor directly connected and High Speed HDMI, and Freesync is greyed out. Would love to know if it’s Microsoft or Asus that needs to sort it. Asus customer service told me that the Xbox One X didnt support Freesync! So I corrected
    them, referred them to the Microsoft site, and await a further response!

    it should be enought to activate freesync on your monitor, and make sure it supports freesync over hdmi, as majority of them only support it over Dport
