IIRC, Freesync will only ever work over DP because it relies on features that the HDMI protocol doesn't/won't ever have.
Also, it's very interesting that things are so different in France with regard to display cables. I would've assumed that, since it's mostly the same manufacturers making everything around the world, they'd have more or less standard models across regions.
- TomVDB 7y agoThe DVI and HDMI protocols doesn’t need anything specific to support variable refresh rate: nothing prevents one to just extend the vertical front porch time. It’s just a question whether or not the GPU can generate that kind of signal and whether the monitor scaler chip is willing to deal with it.
- Latty 7y agoHDMI 2.1 has a variable refresh rate mode which will presumably become the standard over time. https://www.hdmi.org/spec21Sub/VariableRefreshRate https://www.hdmi.org/spec21Sub/VariableRefreshRate
