Freesync on desktop

Post by Fixide » 22 Jan 2016, 10:51

Hello,

I am the owner of a MG279Q and a 290x. I feel blur / ghosting when scrolling in firefox. Much less on144hertz but a lot with freesync@ 90hertz. Do freesync should be disabled when you we on the desktop? Or is my screen has an issue?

Thank you

I do not know if some camera photos are representative , not having a tracking cam.

Normal :

Why do you have freesync only at 90hz?

Wow, that's really shitty it only supports freesync up to 90hz.

There is more blur at lower refreshrates, so it might just because of that.

Does it look the same as this test here?

Nah. I have this blur/ text ghosting issue on firefox but not on your test. It can be linked to firefox ?

I have more blur than a old 22" monitor when scrolling.

You have blur in firefox and it doesn't look the same as seen in the test? there is probably something that we are missing because both of them should look identical at the same refreshrates.
