G-Sync laptops work with G-sync monitors???

[1uke]

Might be a silly question but will the laptops G-Sync work with a G-Sync monitor?

I have a Asus Strix GL502VS and I'm finding the 15" screen a little small for home use.

Also are the 24" Acer Predator monitors good???

Any laptop with NVidia GPU *direct* connection (no optimus) will work with G-sync monitor.

Laptop panel G-sync support is completely different (its actually NVidia implementation of Adaptive Sync) and its neither used nor needed for standalone G-sync monitor.

Make sure the GPU/graphics in your laptop can use (external) G-Sync (if its the GTX1070 it should) and like above has a direct connection/mode so it can talk to the G-Sync module.

My Alienware 15 R3 (GTX 1070) with 120hz G-Sync works with my Dell 144hz G-Sync.

Thanks for reply's. It is a 1070 in the laptop and from further reading it might only work if I use the mini display port and not the hdmi port. But nothing confirmed

Not sure if relevant, but desktop cards must use DP for gsync, so would imagine the same is true of a laptop...
