NVIDIA G-SYNC now Supports FreeSync/VESA Adaptive-Sync Technology, Sort of
Click to expand...
NVIDIA finally got around to realizing that the number of monitors with VESA adaptive-sync overwhelmingly outnumber those supporting NVIDIA G-Sync, and is going ahead with adding support for adaptive-sync monitors. This however, comes with a big rider. NVIDIA is not going to unlock adaptive-sync to all monitors, just the ones it has tested and found to work "perfectly" with their hardware. NVIDIA announced that it has found a handful of the 550+ monitor models in the market that support adaptive-sync, and has enabled support to them. Over time, as it tests more monitors, support for these monitors will be added through GeForce driver updates, as a "certified" monitor.

At their CES event, the company provided a list of monitors that they already tested and that fulfill all requirements. G-Sync support for these models from Acer, ASUS, AOC, Agon and BenQ will be enabled with a driver update on January 15th

So there´s some speculation that a manufacturer might actually have to pay them to have a monitor certified for "G-Sync Compatible" and to be whitelisted in the drivers.
Which wouldn´t be too surprising if they´re gonna support something that competes with their own proprietary stuff.

Still, I´m happy we´re getting more options on the adaptive refresh rate front.
There´s a deal on a AOC monitor that is on the list already right now, sorta tempted to snag 2 and replace my old main 120hz and cheapo 60hz secondary..

Anyone seen any word on when the first batch of support will roll out?

EDIT: ran across the answer:
https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2019/01/06/g-sync-displays-ces/

Support for G-SYNC Compatible monitors will begin Jan. 15 with the launch of our first 2019 Game Ready driver.

Also this tidbit:
For gamers who have monitors that we have not yet tested, or that have failed validation, we’ll give you an option to manually enable VRR, too.

Ok so in the past we had the following:

1.) AIB Monitor Developer had to purchase a piece of hardware that supported G-Sync. Which in turn caused the "G-Sync Tax". Thus the Nvidia price gouging occured. Yes G-Sync at the time was better supported then Freesync. But times change and it was discovered that Freesync worked just as well on Nvidia hardware and really only came down to drivers. Basically Nvidia purposely blocking Freesync Support.

In 2019 we have the following:

1.) Nvidia will now support Freesync on supported AIB monitors. :D

2.) AIB's will have to pay Nvidia to get the support :bleh:

3.) G-Sync tax remains in place even though there is no G-Sync Module in the screen. :mad:

No price drops on the current line of Turring cards and an overpriced TV as well as an overpriced low end GPU.
