That's not unexpected. Variable refresh rate (GSYNC and Freesync) has always needed the display to support it first.

Yeah, but the old display supports VRR via VESA Adaptive-Sync. Nvidia supports that as well, but not sure if their mobile GPUs don't for built-in displays?

If it is supported, I don't see any advantage of having Gsync vs. standard VRR.

If not that's a shame. Pretty wasteful having to buy the same display with different firmware just to get adaptive sync working.
