AMD FreeSync Review With the Acer XB270HU Monitor

In this article we will test out AMDs all new hip feature, FreeSync and we do so with the new Acer FreeSync (27” 1440p 144Hz) screen. This puppy is WHQD and will not brake an arm and a leg as it's available for just just 499 EURO. For that money you receive a FreeSync compatible screen that has 1ms GTG speeds up-to 144 Hz. So yeah, following NVIDIAs GSYNC AMD took matters in their own hands and took a different approach, no more screen tearing and sync stuttering during game-play, if you create a gaming setup with the right circumstances. We will walk you through some available models, driver support and supported GPU's after which we'll put the aforementioned ACER screen to the test.

AMD FreeSync Technology Review

Initially demonstrated at CES in January 2014, AMD has been working on hard on making their FreeSync technology a reality for at least the past 14 months. A reaction to the public release of Nvidia’s G-SYNC the previous month, the implementation was obviously in its infancy – the demonstration was performed on a laptop where the engineers had far greater control over the scalar component of the LCD panel. Nevertheless it showed great promise.

AMD then went down the route less taken – attempting to make the standard an open one which could be adopted by monitor manufacturers without expensive licencing arrangements or additional costs to the end-user. Their argument was simple – the VESA V-Blank specification, which defines the refresh rate of a given panel, was too limited to allow true synchronisation but that an implementation would be possible which didn’t place onerous requirements on monitor manufacturers. VESA eventually found that their argument had some merit, despite representations against it by their competitors, christening the new standard Adaptive Sync.

As part of DisplayPort 1.2a Adaptive Sync is a purely optional standard which monitor manufacturers can apply to their DisplayPort 1.2-enabled monitors, free of liscensing. AMD’s graphics hardware can then make use of FreeSync technology to essentially tell the monitor when to grab a new frame from the frame buffer, rather than rely on continuous polling from new and more complicated scaler hardware.

Kingston Technologies Data Traveler microDuo 3

With the plethora of different storage devices out in the market today to choose from for us to connect from one electronic device to another electronic device makes trying to choose one that fits the bill for us quiet difficult, as well as confusing. Especially, when we start adding the multitude of different connectors that each and every device has differs. Meaning, that our computers utilizes a USB blade style connector while our phones/tablets uses a micro-USB blade style connector (or if you are Apple something completely different). Not to forget the different speed ratings of each of these storage devices will have adds even more confusion to our over whelmed minds on trying to figure out what will work and what wont work for us. We here at Bjorn3D.com going to be looking at a storage device that will fit the bill quite nicely, and it has quite a bit of storage space to give us the greater flexibility we need.

LG 34UM67 AMD FreeSync Monitor Review

Debuting the new AMD technology in an ultrawide form-factor. AMD's FreeSync technology has been in the spotlight for the past year or so, branded by the company as the affordable and open alternative to Nvidia's G-Sync. The wait for FreeSync is finally over as AMD partners are coming to market with FreeSync-supported products from today, March 19th.

Six display vendors are partaking in the first wave of 11 compatible displays - Acer, BenQ, LG, Nixeus, Samsung and Viewsonic.

Microsoft Lumia 535 Review

If you've handled one of Nokia's vast array of Windows phones in the past few years twirling the Microsoft Lumia 535 round in your hands will feel instantly familiar.It's a plastic shell, with rounded corners and anonymous black front. Slippy but able to take a few knocks, this screamingly orange device is yet another in a succession of absolutely unsubtle Lumia devices – and it's goshdarned cheap too at £89 (around US$135, AU$164).
