The latest Microsoft and Sony game consoles are still hard to find, but there’s still plenty of time to track one down before you have to start planning for the next generation. Sony hasn’t even rolled out all the promised features to its PlayStation 5 hardware. The company says that the promised variable refresh rate (VRR) is still on the way, and gamers can expect it in the coming months.

For years, we’ve been playing console games at 60 frames per second because that’s what TVs supported. The upshot to VRR on a console is similar to dynamic refresh systems like Nvidia G-Sync on the PC side. VRR allows your game console and TV to talk to each other, synchronizing the refresh rate with the console’s frame rate. The result is clearer motion and a reduction in artifacts and screen tearing. On PCs, this feature is known as G-Sync (Nvidia) and FreeSync (AMD).
Sony promised VRR support up to 120Hz on the PS5, but it released the console without it.
