Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025
Will freesync work with it?
Nowadays they’re the same thing. Nvidia uses a different name because they like appropriating things, I guess.
They are not the same thing. GSYNC requires the monitor to be embedded with an NVIDIA controller.
It does not. You’re talking about the original version GSYNC which required a hw module. That’s no longer the case.
No. That’s G-SYNC compatible, G-SYNC monitors require an “NVIDIA G-SYNC processor”.
