Hello everyone!
I have just upgraded my old monitor, Lg 24" full ips HD, with a Samsung Odyssey 25" 240 Hz. The new monitor is very advanced compared to my old one.
I have received from the factory a hdmi cable, I think it is a 2.0. Because in the monitor menu you can choose between hdmi 1.4 and 2.0. And it was factory set on 2.0.
I activated HDR from windows settings. Also, I put refresh rate in windows settings on 239 Hz. Everything works fine.
Now I want to benefit from G-Sync compatible option and I understand I need to buy a display port cable. I bought a 1.4 display cable and I am waiting for it to arrive.
The monitor supports 1.2 display cable only, but it said in the manual that 1.4 is also good.
My question is:
1) in games, is display port 1.2 better than hdmi 2.0 port? Because of g-sync option? It seems I can't use g-sync with hdmi cable.
2) for movies and not games, must I plug back the hdmi 2.0 cable? because of hdr10 is better? or hdr works also with display port?
3) when gaming and after activating g-sync with the new display port cable, should I leave vsync on, like before, or should I put it off?
Thank you for your time.
