Adaptive Sync
PC gaming has long been an imperfect
experience because GPUs and monitors
update at different rates. Sometimes
a GPU can render many new pictures
during a single update of the monitor,
and the monitor will show pieces of each
picture as a single image. This is called
“tearing.” Gamers can fix tearing with
a feature called “v-sync,” but the image
can become jerky as the GPU waits on
the monitor to call for an update before
delivering new pictures.
The responsiveness of mouse input and
overall frames per second are reduced
with v-sync, too. AMD Adaptive Sync
technology eliminates all of these
problems by letting the GPU update the
monitor the moment a new picture is
ready, leaving gamers with unbelievably
smooth, responsive, tearing-free games.
