does this model support G-sync?

Accepted Answer

FreeSync only NOT a GSync monitor.

Question 2

Does this actually have a 144hz refresh rate? It says down in the specifics that it has a 60 hz.

Accepted Answer

This monitor is not to be confused with their XG2701 or XG2401 models which do possess 144 Hz refresh rates. Currently the HDMI 2.0 and Displayport 1.2a standards that are used by his monitor only support 60 Hz at 4k.

Question 3

Is it okay to connect the included mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable from the monitor to the video card on the computer?  Do I need to purchase a DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable?  Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Accepted Answer

Yes you can. Any of the connections on the rear of the monitor can be connected to the video card. Normally the monitor detects which cable is connected and automatically works. Occasionally you need to program the monitor to use that connection. Mine came with all the necessary cables.
