PS5 VRR support with Acer X27p but couldn't find a clear specific answer for that.

Hi everyone,

As the title already says, I'm wondering if the X27p, which comes with official VRR support via hdmi, would support the PS VRR feature.

I already googled a lot, but couldn't find a clear specific answer for that.

As I already know, the X27p has only hdmi 2.0, but I read that xbox x series VRR works, so will PS5 also works on that, although it requires officially hdmi 2.1?

thx in advance

The PS5's HDMI-2.1 VRR protocol should be backward compatible with the X27p's HDMI-2.0 VRR protocol.

However, the keywords are "should be" --- as opposed to --- "is".

As with most bleeding edge new technologies, there are no 100% guarantees if that's what you're waiting to hear before you'll try one and see.

I'd guess the chances are over 50% that it will work. Accordingly, you should buy one from a vendor with a good returns policy just in case it doesn't.
