    your machine may have 8gb ram but the system is locking away some of that for shared resources ie graphics, therefore the game sees only 5.9gb available which is not enough, most new games require 8gb minimum available. you will need to upgrade your ram.

    what unit do you have (model).

    Hello Sree v2,

    Thank you for contacting the Xbox support forums. Before we troubleshoot further, can you please let us know if you have already installed the latest version of the driver for your graphics card? Until then, I'll suggest a few troubleshooting steps below;

    1) If you have not done so already, please download the latest driver update for your graphics card on the NVIDIA website. Once download, check to see if this resolves the issue you are receiving.

    2) If the problem persists, you can run the device troubleshooter and see if this detects the driver for the graphics card on your computer. If you are on Windows 10, please review: Fix-It Tool with Windows 10. If you are on Windows 11, you may follow the similar steps but instead of selecting "Update & Security, select "System" under your PC settings.

    3) If you have attempted to download the latest driver and if the Fix-It Tool was unsuccessful to find the driver, you may attempt uninstalling the driver and scan for hardware changes on your computer:

    1. Press Windows Key and X together and select Device Manager
    2. Locate the Display adapter and expand the driver icon
    3. Right click on the driver icon and select Uninstall
    4. Click "Scan for hardware changes" to check to see if it's getting detected after uninstalling the driver.
    Please let us know if you're still receiving the error and we can try to assist further.

    Thank you!

    -Tali

    I think I messed up

    well i found the following with a bit of a search

    Adaptive Sync Support

    The Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQ supports all three adaptive sync modes: FreeSync (for AMD graphics cards), G-Sync (for NVIDIA graphics cards) and Variable Refresh Rate (for consoles).
