I'm STILL confused. Where on this thread is the currently unreleased/untested 3080 confirmed to not work with VRR TVs?
so you are saying nvidia will support a spec that doesn't exsist prior to hdmi 2.1? do you have any evidence of nvidia taking up support of vrr in the old hdmi standards? this will be a good outcome if the case.HDMI VRR is different than Freesync over HDMI. Some TVs support HDMI VRR others Freesync over HDMI and some both. Nvidia should without a doubt support HDMI VRR on TVs with support for it, while it's uncertain if they will also support Freesync over HDMI on TVs with support for it.
Nvidia is already supporting VRR with Turing on a 2.1 enabled TV with support for it. While you won't get the 48Gbit bandwidth you will get the VRR support as long as your drivers are up to date. It works with TVs like LG C9, E9, B6, and CX. Plenty of videos around showcasing VRR in action on LG's OLEDs with Turing.

Don't count on it. The implementation from AMD's side is a proprietary custom protocol which I'm fairly sure Nvidia won't be able to adopt, not that they want to anyway with HDMI 2.1 starting to become the new norm.
I'll be going back to AMD if freesync isn't supported on my Samsung Q70R tv then. I'm not holding out much hope now though. It's a real shame if so as I was all set on Nvidia 3080 I haven't owned an Nvidia card for a long time. Well I hope big Navi is going to be competitive.
What features are present in 1.4 and 2.0 that aren't in 2.1?
