First introduced in 2015, AMD's FreeSync technology has undergone several changes. The company offered its technology as an alternative to NVIDIA G-Sync and VESA VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) for levelless operation, synchronizing the monitor's refresh rate with the capabilities of the GPU.
Instead of releasing a new FreeSync specification, AMD is updating existing tiers to allow higher refresh rates. It is worth noting that FreeSync already had a second version, but AMD changed the naming scheme, reports Video Cards.
When the technology was first announced, monitors with a 120Hz refresh rate were rare. Today, a refresh rate of 144Hz or higher is not out of the ordinary for a gaming panel. However, the FreeSync specifications needed to be updated accordingly.
AMD is not changing the FreeSync specifications for laptop panels; the new changes will only affect monitors and TVs. The update actually came out in September 2023, but AMD is only announcing it now. It looks like AMD has raised the minimum FreeSync specs for 1080p monitors (listed as 3440) to 144Hz. Previously, the basic level did not have such a requirement.
For FreeSync Premium, monitors with resolutions up to 3440 will now have to support at least 200Hz, and higher resolution monitors (ie predominantly 4K panels) will have to support a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz. In both cases, this is higher than the minimum 120Hz refresh rate that was previously required for FHD+ resolution.
