[SOLVED] G-sync over USB-c adapter?

[fish212]

Hi,

I have a destop with a Gigabyte RTX 2070 mini GPU. It is currently connected to my ROG PG279 display via DP cable.

I am planning to buy an adapter/docking station wich has some USB ports and a DP out port. I would then connect the adapter via USB - c to my RTX 2070.

The idea behind it is that I could disconnect the adapter with my USB accesoires (keyboard, mouse and headset) and with the display in one move from the desktop and connect the adapter via USB-c port to my work laptop.

My question is, will this adapter between DP cable and GPU still ensure G-Sync capability at 144hz and 1440p resolution?

Thank you!

I don't expect this to work. I wouldn't try it personally, hell I wouldn't want a docking station/port replicator hooked up to a desktop period even if it does work. That being said, I don't think there's a docking station that supports G-Sync.

Very doubtful that would work. Nvidia doesn't even list USB C as a display output for the 2070, It's for VR. I don't think it can be used as a normal display output like display port.

The USB-C on RTX cards is a VirtualLink Port, which does support Displayport streams. Whether it'd work for G-sync though, I have no idea.
