2015 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) - AMD today announced the expansion of the FreeSync ecosystem as technology partners including BenQ, LG Electronics, Nixeus, Samsung, and Viewsonic showcased their upcoming commercially available FreeSync-enabled displays at the 2015 International CES.

The unveiling of new FreeSync-enabled displays demonstrates the industry's commitment to open standards-based technology that enables improved gaming by synchronizing dynamic refresh rates of the displays to the frame rate of AMD Radeon R-Series graphics cards and current generation APUs. The result greatly reduces input latency and helps reduce or eliminate visual defects during gaming and video playback. The new displays range in size between 24" to 34", supporting refresh rates of 30 to 144 Hz, and resolutions of 1080p up to Ultra HD, offering a variety of options for every gamer's needs and at virtually every price point.



"The broad adoption of FreeSync technology from our partners shows how the industry strongly values the same open ecosystem and quality that AMD strives for," said Roy Taylor, corporate vice president, ISV/IHV Partner Group, AMD. "Gamers who use FreeSync technology with AMD Radeon R-Series graphics and AMD latest generation of APUs can rest assured that they're enjoying the best possible experience."

Monitors from BenQ, LG Electronics, Nixeus, and Samsung are on display at AMD's booth, San Polo rooms 3402 - 3404 at The Venetian at CES Tech West. Displays are expected to be available in market starting this month with additional models set to launch in early 2015.

I'll be keeping my eye on BenQ's offering. I guess we'll have to wait to know more about what kind of screens they'll be using, connections, etc.

Since I am not "exclusively" into gaming and have a need for higher resolution monitors I would be most interested in the Samsung UE850 31.5" 4K model.

Exactly my thought. I wonder if I can manage to convince work I need a desktop with one of these.....

Looks like there will be a few differences from G-Sync and Adaptive Sync+FreeSync.

G-Sync locks to V-Sync On
Adaptive Sync+FreeSync gives you the option to run it with V-Sync On or V-Sync Off


That LG panel is tempting. Notice how much better the LG IPS looks compared to the Samsung AHVA and BenQ TN in the angle shot.

They also hinted that the Asus MG279Q with DP 1.2a Plus might be able to support Adaptive Sync+FreeSync but isn't certified by VESA during there podcast.
