FreeSync technology is solution that eliminates screen tearing without all the usual lag and latency.

This feature will eliminate screen tearing and lag during game play. Improve your gaming experience.

The displayed FreeSync menu items on the monitor may vary, depending on the monitor model and
compatibility with the AMD graphics card.

• Off: Disable FreeSync.

• Standard Engine: Enable the basic FreeSync functions of the AMD graphics card.

• Ultimate Engine: Enable the FreeSync feature with a higher screen frame rate. Screen tearing
(abnormal sync between the screen and content) is reduced in this mode. Note that screen flickering
may occur during game play.

Apply the optimum resolution when using FreeSync.

The refresh rate setting method please refer to Q & A → How can I change the frequency?

―

The FreeSync function is only enabled in DisplayPort1 or DisplayPort2 mode.
Use the DP cable provided by the manufacturer when using FreeSync.

―

This menu is not available when PBP is enabled.

If you use the FreeSync function while playing a game, the following symptoms may occur:

• The screen may flicker depending on the type of graphics card, the game option settings, or the
video being played. Try the following actions: decrease the game setting values, change the current

FreeSync mode to Standard Engine, or visit the AMD website to check your graphics driver’s version

and update it with the latest one.

• While you are using the FreeSync function, the screen may flicker due to variation of the output
frequency from the graphics card.

• The response rate during the game may fluctuate depending on the resolution. A higher resolution
generally decreases the response rate.

• The sound quality of the monitor may be degraded.

―

If you encounter any issues when using the function, contact the Samsung Service Center.

―

When the resolution is changed while setting FreeSync to Standard Engine or Ultimate Engine, the screen
tearing can happen intermittently. Set FreeSync to Off and change the resolution.

―

The function is unavailable in the devices (e.g. AV devices) that have no AMD graphic card. If the function is
applied, the screen may have malfunction.

Configuring the PBP Settings.

PBP Mode

Enable or disable the PBP Mode function.

The PBP (Picture by Picture) function separates the screen into two parts displaying output from two
different sources simultaneously on the left and right sides of the screen.

―

PBP mode is compatible with Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.

―

Make sure that the graphics card supports the PBP function. Visit the website of the graphics card
manufacturer to check and update its driver to the latest version.

―

The screen may flicker briefly or appear after a delay when you enable or disable the PBP function or when
you change the screen size with the PBP function activated.
This can typically arise when a PC and a monitor are connected to two or more input sources. It has nothing to
do with the performance of a monitor.

The issue is mainly caused when the video signals are delayed in transmission to the monitor depending on
the graphics card performance.

―

When the PBP function is enabled, the resolution will not be able to automatically switch to the optimum
resolution due to a compatibility issue between the graphics card and the Windows system.
Set PBP Mode to Off. Alternatively, restart the monitor, then set the resolution to the optimum setting using
the Windows interface.

If an HDR signal has been processed by some devices (graphics card/player, etc.), the signal will not
output any HDR metadata and thus will not be recognized as an HDR signal. In this case, Local Dimming
needs to be enabled manually so as to ensure optimal HDR effects.

The HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology implements video images that are very similar to the images
seen through human eyes by finely adjusting the contrast of the source.
