Understanding Variable Refresh Rate (VRR)

What problem does VRR primarily aim to solve in gaming?

• Reducing screen tearing

• Improving sound quality

• Increasing frame rates

• Enhancing color accuracy

How does VRR synchronize the display and GPU?

• By locking the GPU frame rate to a fixed value

• By matching the monitor's refresh rate with the GPU's frame rate

• By increasing the monitor's resolution

• By decreasing the GPU's processing power

What is the main drawback of using vertical sync (V-Sync)?

• It increases power consumption

• It can lead to stuttering if the GPU frame rate is low

• It causes screen tearing

• It reduces color depth

What is a common solution to prevent tearing when frame rates exceed the monitor's refresh rate?

• Reducing the game's graphics settings

• Setting an FPS cap in game settings

• Increasing the monitor's resolution

• Using a higher refresh rate monitor

Which VRR technology is proprietary to NVIDIA?

• VESA Adaptive Sync

• AMD FreeSync

• NVIDIA G-Sync

• HDMI 2.1 VRR

What is the difference between G-Sync and G-Sync Compatible monitors?

• G-Sync monitors are cheaper

• G-Sync Compatible monitors are exclusive to AMD GPUs

• G-Sync monitors have extra NVIDIA hardware

• G-Sync Compatible monitors have better HDR support

Which VRR technology is open-source and works on a driver level?

• HDMI 2.1 VRR

• NVIDIA G-Sync

• AMD FreeSync

• VESA Adaptive Sync

Which VRR technology is part of the HDMI 2.1 specification?

• VESA Adaptive Sync

• AMD FreeSync

• NVIDIA G-Sync

• HDMI 2.1 VRR

What issue can VRR displays face due to frequent refresh rate changes?

• Higher latency

• Reduced color accuracy

• Motion blur or ghosting

• Increased power consumption

How do G-Sync monitors reduce motion blur?

• By reducing the brightness

• By increasing the refresh rate

• By employing extra processing and lookup tables

• By using higher resolution
