Help with FreeSync...

[erazor51]

Hi All, I have sold my 290x thus I can't test FreeSync yet. I bought a new monitor Eizo FS2735, it has two Freesync ranges:

56 - 144Hz
30 - 90Hz

I have to manually switch between the two in the monitor menu. If I leave it on the upper limit I'm guessing I would need Enhanced Sync to benefit when the game goes outside the FreeSync range?

Does FreeSync cause any mouse lag? I play a lot of FPS games.

Thanks

AMD’s new Enhanced Sync technology works with any display, whether it supports FreeSync or not. Enhanced Sync is a replacement for VSync (it's unclear if VSync remains as an option, but why would you use it?) and works hand-in-hand with FreeSync technology. Unlike VSync, Enhanced Sync doesn’t lock the frame rate maximum to the display’s refresh rate. Instead, it uncaps the frame rate to reduce latency in exchange for some mild tearing.

When your GPU can't output frames at the same pace as your monitors refresh rate, Enhanced Sync prioritizes decreased stutter over eliminating tearing. That is, where Vsync strives to remove tearing completely, Enhanced sync allows occasional tearing instead of allowing the GPU to repeat the previous frame and introduce a momentary stutter.

AMD’s Enhanced Sync technology is part of Radeon Software Crimson ReLive 17.7.2, which is

And if anything Free-Sync / Enhanced-Sync improves your input latency.

Great so it works hand in hand with freesync

Just need to wait for Vega then!
