AMD tightens FreeSync standards: monitors/TVs with less than 3440 horizontal pixels require high refresh rates above 144Hz

According to news from this site on March 8, AMD has recently tightened the FreeSync standard and raised the threshold requirements for the resolution and refresh rate of TVs and monitors. For example, a 1080p monitor must have a 144Hz high refresh rate.

AMD launched FreeSync technology in 2015. One of its promotional points is the "replacement" of NVIDIA's proprietary G-SYNC, which can effectively eliminate game lag and screen tearing. crack, achieving smooth and natural visual effects at almost any frame rate.

AMD official said:

AMD FreeSync (Game Intelligent Display) technology has a huge gaming monitor ecosystem, covering more than 4,000 certified monitors. This vast ecosystem is based on the industry-standard variable refresh rate protocol and consists of supported devices and displays with various display connectors to deliver an outstanding visual experience.

NVIDIA's G-SYNC relies on a dedicated hardware module inside the monitor for adaptive frame rate synchronization processing, while FreeSync is different. It is a VESA adaptive synchronization solution based on software method.

AMD has not strictly regulated FreeSync certification before, so most monitors with refresh rates of 60, 75, 90 and 120Hz can obtain the certification trademark.

AMD has now tightened FreeSync certification to require at least a 144Hz refresh rate for all monitors and TVs with a horizontal resolution below 3440 pixels.

So whether it is 1080p (1920X1080), 1440p (2560x1440) or a lower resolution, it must now support 144Hz to be classified as FreeSync. This means that future budget monitors will soon lose their FreeSync designation.

And for all monitors and TVs with a horizontal resolution higher than 3440 pixels, a refresh rate of at least 120Hz is required.

The form attached to this site is as follows:

	Notebook	Monitor or TV
FreeSync™	Max. Refresh Rate: 40 -60 Hz	Max. Refresh Rate: ≥ 144 Hz
FreeSync™ Premium	Max. Refresh Rate: ≥ 120 Hz	Max. Refresh Rate: ≥ 200 Hz ≥ 3440 Horizontal resolution: Max. Refresh Rate: ≥ 120 Hz
FreeSync™ Premium Pro	AMD FreeSync HDR on top of FreeSync™ Premium requirements .	AMD FreeSync HDR on top of FreeSync™ Premium requirements.
