Adaptive-Sync (for NVIDIA graphics card)

Adaptive-Sync

 technology is solution that eliminates screen tearing without all the usual lag and 

latency.
This feature will eliminate screen tearing and lag during game play. Improve your gaming experience.
The displayed 

Adaptive-Sync

 menu items on the product may vary, depending on the product model and 

compatibility with the NVIDIA graphics card.

 

Off

: Disable 

Adaptive-Sync

.

 

On

: Enable the 

Adaptive-Sync

 feature with a higher screen frame rate. Screen tearing (abnormal 

sync between the screen and content) is reduced in this mode. Note, however, that intermittent 
screen flickering may occur during gameplay.

If you use the 

Adaptive-Sync

 function while playing a game, the following symptoms may occur:

 

The screen may flicker depending on the type of graphics card, the game option settings, or the video 
being played. Try the following actions: decrease the game setting values, or visit the NVIDIA website 
to check your graphics driver’s version and update it with the latest one.

 

When using the 

Adaptive-Sync

 function, the screen may flicker due to the fluctuation of output 

frequency from the graphics card.

 

The response rate during the game may fluctuate depending on the resolution. A higher resolution 
generally decreases the response rate.

 

The sound quality of the product may be degraded.

 

If you encounter any issues when using the function, contact the Samsung Service Center.

 

When the resolution is changed while setting 

Adaptive-Sync

, the screen tearing can happen intermittently. 

Set 

Adaptive-Sync

 to 

Off

 and change the resolution.

 

The function is unavailable in the devices (e.g. AV devices) that have no NVIDIA graphics card. If the function 
is applied, the screen may have malfunction.

 

Depending on the source device, 4K output from an AV device is supported only when the 

Adaptive-Sync

 is 

Off

.

 

Use the DisplayPort cable provided by the manufacturer when using 

Adaptive-Sync

.

 

Install the latest NVIDIA graphics card driver to enable 

Adaptive-Sync

.

 

Use Window 10 or higher to enable 

Adaptive-Sync

.

 

This menu is not available when 

PC/AV Mode

 is set to 

AV

.

 

If the 

Adaptive-Sync

 function is in use and the text displayed on the PC screen looks blurry or corrupted, 

resolve the issue by changing the resolution of the PC screen to the recommended resolution.

 

If the 

DisplayPort Ver.

 is set to 

1.1

, the 

Adaptive-Sync

 mode is disabled.

 

If the 

DisplayPort Ver.

 is set to 

1.2

 the 

Adaptive-Sync

 mode is disabled.

 

HDMI port only supports AMD 

FreeSync Premium

, so even if you connect NVIDIA graphics card to HDMI port, 

it will be indicated as 

FreeSync Premium

 on OSD.

 

Adaptive-Sync

 works through DisplayPort only. If a graphics card is connected to the HDMI port, 

FreeSync 

Premium

 is displayed and can be turned on or off in the OSD menu on the monitor, but the 

Adaptive-Sync

 

feature does not work.

The models in the Graphics Cards list supports Adaptive-Sync

Adaptive-Sync

 can only be used with specific NVIDIA graphics card models. Refer to the following list for 

supported graphics cards:
Make sure to install the latest official graphics drivers from NVIDIA that support 

Adaptive-Sync

.

 

For additional NVIDIA graphics card models that support the 

Adaptive-Sync

 feature, visit the official NVIDIA 

website.

 

Select 

Adaptive-Sync

 

Off

 if you are using a graphics card from a different manufacturer.

 

When applying the 

Adaptive-Sync

 function via the DisplayPort cable, it may fail to work due to the bandwidth 

limitation of certain NVIDIA graphics card.
