Which freesync monitors are compatible with the Xbox One X?

hockeybea5t · Jan 18, 2019

I’m currently looking for freesync monitors but not sure whether or not freesync will be available when hooked up to my console through an HDMI. Will any freesync monitor be comptible or is there something else I should be looking for? For example two monitors
im looking at right now are the “MSI Optix G24C 24” and the “HP Omen 25” monitor. These both claim to have freesync as long as there is a compatible GPU, but not sure if xbox is compatible. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Any recommendations for good compatible gaming monitors that support Xbox One X's 120Hz with Freesync working simultaneously, preferably with a 1ms response time? I've been searching around and I've already purchased supposedly compatible monitors
that supported 120Hz and Freesync enabled over HDMI 2.0 recently and returned them for not actually working simultaneously-120Hz and Freesync with the XB1X. Seems the XB1X console is picky on which monitor it wants to work with. I did actually purchase and
returned recently the MSI Optix MPG27CQ 1440p gaming monitor with 144Hz and Freesync which was compatible(120Hz and Freesync) over HDMI 2.0 with the XB1X but had a defect in a color issue and I had to return. Any help for recommendations I can get to work
with this XB1X console to this date, I would greatly appreciate it, thanks?

Id stay away from 4k for comp it is not going to help as much as fps and refresh

Hello all,

As this is an old thread, I will be locking this one. Updates, games and everything changes often so would be best to create a new thread. Once a new thread is created we will be happy to assist you in any issues or questions you might have.

Thanks,

Brad

Hey, I would first start looking at 4k monitors that accept freesync over hdmi instead 1080p monitors, that is the only requirement they need to have, some monitors only accept freesync over DisplayPort so watch out for that, if in doubt I would contact
the monitor manufacture

Did you set the monitor to game mode?

1. Splendid > Game Mode

4. Image > • Adaptive-Sync/FreeSync is not selectable?

Try connect in other HDMI-1 (V2.0), HDMI-2 (V2.0) port.

It's possible that the freesync is only available with DisplayPort, if it's not specified specially as HDMI FreeSync support.

yepp gamemode is on

Tried to change the input to the second one but still nothing.

Yes adaptive-sync/freesync is graymarked so its not even selectable :/

Its a bummer if the specs on the monitor doesnt say "not compatible with freesync on hdmi" i dont understand really why it wouldnt. If the technology is in the device it should be avaliable on all ports that suports it. I just bought this monitor with soul
purpose to play my xbox one x with freesync so im really down :/
