Ah yes, "premium pro" what a great naming scheme.

Who else is waiting for AMD to drop a high end gpu so they give Nvidia a run for their money? I would buy that instantly even if their drivers are wonky.

[wetwerd]

can we please finally get the damn hdr2 oasis demo. PLEASE

[TiranosaurioRex]

AMD has restored my faith in PC gaming.

And how about correcting the drivers first, I have black screen once while even with a clean installation, correct the drivers first then promote the product.

[ragingmonk]

I rolled back to 19.9.2 so that I have stable drivers and FRTC. Like the look of the new software but functionality is paramount.

[zeo_here]

I black screen while having slobs open, would that be a driver issue?

[edgarcia]

So freesync is the norm? Or will Freesync 2 be the norm when the new consoles hit the store shelves?

[BrunoAlmeidaAkaRonin]

...and where are those FreeSync™ Premium Pro displays !?!?!?!

[CodDBZ]

Will any TVs get Premium Pro though or Do we have to wait for 2021 TVs cause not single TV on your website has the HDR variant

[Onio_Saiyan]

I am in the market for some monitors. Preferably 16:9 in 4k and 40 plus inches.

I bought a xt 5700 xt 3 days ago and Ive beem having soooo many problems with it. When I try and get in a game my pc restarts. Ive tried every possible video out there to see if it fixes the problem but it doesnt. It might be because I have a 470x board and its pci3 not pci4 like the gpu. Maybe thats the issue but idk. Im going to return this card for a 2070 super. I have always supported AMD but not this time. They have awful gpus.

[BrunoAlmeidaAkaRonin]

...and will a FreeSync™ Premium Pro display prevent the drivers from crashing everyday on my Radeon VII ?

[Mr_Battlefield]

What TV's will support Freesync Premium Pro?

So far I only see TV's like LG CX OLED TV's supporting Freesync Premium. No Pro on that TV.

What about gaming monitors?

[subhamdubey]

This doesn't make any sense... I'm stuck with a 5700 which is basically a trash....turns off black every 2-3 hrs of intensive playing....

[GAnimeRO]

As if G-Sync's naming scheme wasn't bad enough, why do you have to copy it?

You could have just called it "FreeSync(2)" "FreeSync120+LFC" and "FreeSync120+LFC&HDR", way more transparent and easy to see what it is on the first view.
The word "Premium" already is horrible to use as it is not even a protected term that guarantees quality and therefore is abused by almost everyone on every product, making "Premium" more equal to "Cheap" than actual good quality.


Please don't go that way. Stay as transparent and straight forward as you can as a company if you want a good public image.

[gertjanvandermeij]

RTX just doesn't work, but AMD just rules !

[oodev]

Just use Mesa amdgpu drivers people lol

[marcocittadini]

today I install 20.2.2, the same issue with freesync2 persists. I can't use frresync 2 hdr by 3 months, and you? please comments
