I recently purchased an Acer Nitro VG24Y monitor with a 75Hz refresh rate and own an Nvidia RTX 3050 graphics card. I'm eager to take advantage of the FreeSync functionality on my monitor, but there's a slight hitch – my monitor lacks a DisplayPort input. I'm wondering if there's a solution, such as an adapter or workaround, that would enable me to utilize FreeSync with my setup.

    @mrteizera you can use the HDMI instead.

    @mrteizera the monitor should be able to support free sync through the HDMI protocol.

    VG24Y doesn't match any monitors that I'm aware of, maybe a VG240Y? There are also a bunch of models within each series, with different options, like what ports are included and whether they have speakers or not. There should be a bunch of letters after the VG240Y that define those options. The VG240Y models with HDMI support AMD Freesync at 75Hz over HDMI, no need for a DP port.
