Nvidia Freesync Hack

Same as with display mirroring.

Nvidia freesync hack. He claims the altera fpga was chosen because of its security features but it s really nothing more than a sha 1 engine that could be enabled an fpga is meant to be a programmable device with all sorts of uses and some of those uses might include wanting hardware sha 1 processing. So does anyone want to work on the hack to make windows think any arbitrary gpu is an apu. By the way display mirroring used to be smart enough to let you freesync w nvidia as primary too but they patched it out. I have a free sync monitor with a 1080 ti i m pushing a lot of frames already so it prob wouldn t have mattered.

Because the mechanism for how this work is dxgi which is the same as what we use with looking glass. We started looking into this over at pcper. In this windows 10 guide we re going to run you. Afaik eyefinity and freesync don t work together right now.

The hack supports dp hdmi and dvi but due to bandwidth dvi has a very tight window for refresh rates at 1080 and higher. Some games have a built in selection option allowing you to choose which gpu is used for rendering. Nvidia made a change in policy that pleased many pc gamers by starting to work on certifying amd freesync monitors to work with nvidia gpus. You can trick nvidia gpu s to use freesync and displays that use dp v1 2 to use gsync.

But this doesn t mean this freesync on nvidia gpus hack is dead in the water.
