Has anyone tested The new adaptive sync feature in Monterey? I want to buy a 4K 120hz HDR monitor (gigabyte FO48U). I’ve ordered a new 14” M1 Max 10 Core CPU, 32 Core GPU 64GB Memory.
Where I live it’s very difficult to go test in a shop. I was wondering if anyone else has tried this kind of setup and tested adaptive sync?
MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
I found this feature in the Monterey betas (and both RCs - aka 12.0.1) and enabled it. Unfortunately it worked between 40 and 60 hz on my Samsung 24EU590. A small range for my simulator (Trainz). Especially the minimum wasn't good for me as it runs most of time 20/25 -> 60hz.
But there is and it works fine at least on my Mac Mini M1. Of course, I don't know about the desidered config of your post.
We are waiting on our M1 Pro/M1 Max hardware deliveries just as you are. I would hold off on that 120Hz display purchase until there is a larger base of feedback from M1 Pro/M1 Mac owners in the MacBook Pro community.
Thanks for the reply, I appreciate the effort. I think possibly you mean the UE590 right? That does support Adaptive Sync but only up to 60Hz right?
Hi Thanks for your reply. If you do have an opportunity to test with a 4K HDR High Refresh rate it would be great to hear about it. Thank you.
Yes, 60Hz was surely the display's limit but I don't know how far the base M1 GPU can go. BTW... I could achieve also 24-60 Hz on my Blitzwolf 15,6" portable display.
My 32 inch LG is 4K@60Hz so unable to test higher refresh here.
