Freesync news

I can confirm that the test monitors that they set up have framerates intentionally chosen to cause stuttering with freesync off

Fixed or changing? The entire point of the technology is to adapt to a changing framerate. If they haven't shown that, I'm not optimistic about their timeframe.

I guess it's the Watch Dogs of monitors, then

not saying that freesync doesn't work, but that demo is essentially another example of a before-vs-after advertisement.

obviously the stutter in the freesync off monitor, which is visible even in the 30fps youtube video, is artificially introduced since even framerates jumping randomly between 40-60 shouldn't show up as THAT much stutter in a 30fps camera recording.

we can't really tell how well freesync works from the video since there's no information about the framerate on each monitor...

in the best case, it will be as good as gsync, but in the worst it will just be a poor man's gsync.
