What is NVIDIA G-SYNC?
G-SYNC is NVIDIA's display technology for synchronizing supported displays with a compatible GeForce graphics system.
QUICK EXPLANATION
Confirm support and activation for your monitor
Features differ across G-SYNC display models and compatible monitors. Check the exact monitor model, connection and NVIDIA Control Panel rather than assuming every adaptive-sync display behaves identically.
A G-SYNC label does not mean every game or display mode uses the feature automatically.
Result: The NVIDIA display settings should show the relevant option when the connected hardware and mode support it.
How to check it
Check NVIDIA's current G-SYNC monitor information and your monitor manual. Use the graphics control panel only for a display connected to the NVIDIA GPU.
Check: Confirm the intended monitor is selected and the driver reports G-SYNC enabled for that display.
