Nvidia Won't Support G-Sync Compatible Displays on Pre-Pascal GPUs

[WYP]

Maxwell or older GPUs won't support Adaptive Sync.



Read more about Nvidia's pre-Pascal graphics cards lacking support for Adaptive Sync.

Wow looks like I totally lucked out then.

Man, I can't even imagine what my 32" would have cost if it were gsync when I bought it

Can't wait to try this out.

After starting to search the listed monitors on Nvidia's slide, I saw that the Acer XFA240 costs "only" 230€ for 24" and 270€ for 27" (ZeroFrame). 1080p, 144Hz and "GSync" is what I was looking for a long time :O And since Nvidia approved it, the experience should be awesome. Looks like I got myself a birthday present.


The news about Maxwell is truely sad, but you already mentioned a possible reason.

All this new stuff and here I am running at buttery smooth 120+ frames in almost every game simply using Fast-Sync..

Seems like the g sync monitor market will go down as those premiums were offered to A Sync monitors which is cheaper.
