Hi, @Harnoors
Thanks for posting, and welcome to the Roku Community.
A variable refresh rate, or VRR helps eliminate input latency, screen tearing, and stuttering that sometimes appears in highly complex, fast-moving games when enabled. Some Roku TV models support FreeSync which is a technology certified by AMD. Roku TV models that support 8K Ultra HD are FreeSync Premium certified for serious gamers.
To take advantage of VRR or FreeSync, you must enable the feature on both your game console and your compatible Roku TV.

When a game console that supports VRR is detected (e.g., Xbox One, Xbox Series X), the individual HDMI port (where your game console is connected) on your compatible Roku TV is automatically configured to Standard, and VRR is enabled. When FreeSync is detected, the HDMI port is configured for Standard, and FreeSync is enabled. |
You can use the instructions below to adjust the VRR or FreeSync setting on your Roku TV.
- Press Home on your Roku TV remote
- Scroll and select Settings
- Select TV inputs
- Choose the specific HDMI port where your game console is connected
- Select Variable refresh rate or FreeSync variable refresh rate to turn the feature on (or off)
- Note: If you do not see a "Variable refresh rate" or "FreeSync variable refresh rate" option, your Roku TV does not support this advanced feature.
With VRR, your Roku TV can display Full HD (1080p) at variable frame rates between 48 and 120fps and 4K at variable frame rates between 48 and 60fps. For an optimized gaming experience, set the resolution of your game console to 1080p at 120fps. For help, visit the online resources for the manufacturer, or contact them directly.
With FreeSync, your compatible Roku TV can display 4K at variable frame rates between 48 and 120fps. FreeSync is only supported on an 8K Roku TV on HDMI ports 1 and 2 which support HDMI 2.1. HDMI ports 3 and 4 support HDMI 2.0 and traditional VRR.
