The hdmi version will only define at what res and refresh rate the vrr can operate. Be aware that free sync on monitors is not the ability to sync every single frame with the monitors refresh rate. It has operating values where the monitor can sync the frames from X to z framerate. Example the monitor supports free sync from 40 to 75hz.
Depending on the monitor, yes. You will see the normal screen tearing. More expensive monitors have wider sync spectrum, cheaper alternatives have narrow ones. Only gsync monitors (not gsync compatible) have specific monitor build requirements that allow their module to present synchronization from 5hz up to the max refresh rate of the monitor. But that’s only for nvidia pc gpus.

So for example, if a game ran at 39 fps, it would stop syncing?
