It's not even that important, as I've said, look who published them. It's just funny watching DM make mysterious links between specs as if AMD are the driving force.

Considering it was submitted after G-Sync was announced, I don't understand where he's getting his info from.

seriously?
Videos - big heading
Presentations - big heading
DisplayPort Taiwan Workshop November 2014 - sub heading
Other Presentations - sub heading
DisplayPort Asia Workshops May 2013 - sub sub heading
White Papers - big heading

white papers is clearly the start of a new section, the DisplayPort Asia Workshops May 2013 sub heading is clearly only relating to presentations from that particular workshop, the white papers section below is clearly clearly a completely unrelated section
 
its not important, but it does show AMD's Freesync has been in the works much longer than we might have thought.

Its quite funny how both say May 2013 on the site and also the document. Dont you find that stands out just a little bit?

actually, the document is dated *MARCH 2014* on the first page, if they can't even get matching dates through the document that I'd doubt the veracity of such a claim
if you download the file and look in the properties within a pdf viewer the created/modified date is 02/07/14 - July 2014

the date on AMD's white paper is March 2014, so it seems pretty clear that VESA took AMD's document and put VESA on it and published it later - in July - they just screwed up changing the date from March 2014 to May 2013 instead of 2014 when they started editing it

AMD went to VESA to make it happen, so what if they took AMD's white paper and pasted their name on it? AMD probably said they could.

Too much excitement over trivia :p

It doesnt say 2013 on the site, it says "White Papers" and nothing else, the previous sub sub heading bears no relation to the documents under "White Papers"
The giveaway being that if you look at the html for the webpage, both Presentations and White Papers are H1 meaning Primary heading, where as the Asia 2013 is H3, meaning it is a subheading

Your absolutely right, that was totally the conversation that was going on... Here have a cookie and go back to sleep, there there
We'll just ignore DM's attempts at re-writing history on both adaptive sync and 4K support in DP1.2

The "Proof" Its in the White Paper "May 2013" You keep believing its a miss type.. Until its Changed to what you "May" think I'll believe what I see.

See above, check the site's html
Also, if the white paper was from the presentations that were SHOWN in May 2013, dont you think that we'd have know about adaptive sync in MAY 2013

Vesa didnt announce adaptive sync until May 2014... Why would they announce something A YEAR after they'd already presented it at a trade show

Dont waste your breath Andy, there's no cure for stupid.
 
What's stunning about AMD taking multiple times longer to do something than Nvidia?

Not that I have any real opinion on who's right, nor do I care (Except, naturally I expect Shanks to be wrong)

Adaptive-Sync as been around since 2009, its just never been brought to the lame light till now..
Laptops have used this tech for long time now, what's to say they been working on it since 2013 for external displays? The white paper was written in 2013 before they announced it would be in there DP 1.2 for external displays.

Enjoy :D
 
AMD were publicly talking adaptive sync on desktop in 2012 - but why are we all comparing timestamps? Who cares? :/

All I care about is that we actually get it, sooner rather than later thanks. Then once it arrives I'll care about how well it works, any downsides etc. After that... well, I guess I'll care what the next steps are, but it's too early to know what they could be so my caring must be deferred.
