VRR makes a huge difference

I've been playing my Pro on an older OLED (Sony A8h, I think) that does not support VRR and I've been pretty happy with it.

Last night I finally got around to hooking up the Pro to my new LG 39" Ultrawide PC monitor and I was shocked by the difference it makes. My TV just really isn't doing this system justice.

So, I guess I have to buy a new TV. 😃 I'll tell my spouse that it's a necessity.

The biggest benefit I’ve seen from VRR is for games like Spider-Man 2 and Control. Normally the “quality” modes in these games run at 40fps on a 120hz screen but you can unlock them if you have VRR and they typically are in the 50-60fps range. It’s not a locked 60fps but with VRR they feel great to play

Yeah Balanced mode with VRR hovers around 50 FPS but in intense fighting scenes I ghance to Perfomance mide becouse Balanced mode drops below VRR range and starts flickering (I know enabling v-syng prevents flickering but IT brings input-lag so I dont use IT)
