[SOLVED] Does G-SYNC work with AOC G2790PX? (25" model works)

[reponj.josip]

Ok so since nvidia gave a list of 12 FreeSync monitors that are compatible with G-SYNC and one of them is AOC G2590FX (25", 144Hz, TN). I need to know does anyone own the 27" model AOC G2790PX and how does it work with G-SYNC.

From what I understand so far:
1. You need GTX1xxx or newer to have GSync working on FreeSync monitor.
2. You need Win10.
3. Many or most FreeSync monitors outside from NVidia's official list should work.
4. There is still no better list, which monitors are working, aside those few monitors NVidia mentioned during CES 2019.
5. My feeling says, if your Freesync monitor can run 144Hz or faster, it should work.

I dunno if similar idea about the list has been put to reality somewhere in the internet.
If someone from Tomshardware is reading this thread, perhaps it is a good idea to make/moderate a sticky thread about GSync monitor compatibility list. Forum members will then contribute to fill in the list, which FreeSync monitors are compatible. The list would be very helpful for people, who already have FreeSync monitor+nVidia card combination or who want to safe some money by buying FreeSync monitors rather than native GSync monitors.

A list people are making on freesync monitors and their compatibility.

G2790PX isn’t listed yet, check back in a few days to see if someone tried it and updated.

There is this column that says "strobing", what does it mean? Does it mean the monitor flickers and can't be used?

I think strobing is same as blinking. Monitor can still be used but its very annoying.

I just learned strobing is some sort of technique monitors use to reduce motion blur. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/53v0bn/what_is_a_strobed_backlight/

Maybe they mean this. Hopefully.
