Oh great. Another very original "Hold My Beer" comment.
Didn't even hear about it (FreeSync Premium) before watching the video....
Digging the profile pic bro.
I think it's fairly new so it makes sense that you never heard about it.
Me neither

Hah. I heard of it just by seeing the thumbnail title, before I clicked.
0:57-1:01 Nice demonstration of HDR by the editor. So far I haven't seen anyone making the remark.
Came here to say this. Nice touch!
Super Clark many of us are on flagship mobile devices
@Super Clark there's tons of great hdr tvs and phones.
Some displays labeled as HDR definitely shouldn't be labeled as such, like the DisplayHDR 400 ones. It makes it even more confusing as if it wasn't already. Actual HDR displays are really nice though and of course HDR OLED phones are amazing
That's actually not a very good demonstration since it's simulated (this video isn't in HDR so it's impossible to show the difference. Even if it is in HDR, you need a HDR display, which most phones and TVs have nowadays)
01:25
If there are 3 tiers of freesync, they should just call the premium version "Threesync"
That would be extremely smart tbh. Although it would be better to keep freesync in the name unfortunately
Riley is the closest thing we have to a Sim character that can speak English.
I don't know what that means but somehow I agree
And the moustache is absolutely excellent.
How could u came up with this 🤣😂

0:37 Talks about AMD gpus, shows icon of rtx card
Phew, I wasn't the only one to realize that this video was about an AMD specific feature but the graphics card images they used were Nvidia rtx.
Kaden Sharpin doesn’t FreeSync also work with nvidia GPUs?
@@Termsofseve No, they have g-sync.
@@freevbucks8019 FreeSync monitors also work with G-Sync now right? They have an entire lineup of G-Sync monitors that are in reality just FreeSync monitors with zero changes, and they also let you use any FreeSync monitor on the condition that some stuff might not work properly
Yes, NVidia made Freesync monitors work on G-SYNC. Some of them have been tested by Nvidia and work without a problem but if nvidia hasn't tested your monitor, you can enable it manually but it may have issues.
However, i don't know if FreeSync Premium Pro Deluxe DSMax would work with his advantages, it's possible that it would just be treated like a standard Freesync monitor, this would need to be tested.
AMD has one more tier...FreeSync Premium Bestest
Strangely, I read that as Premium Bastards!
Hmmm.. maybe I have subconsciously revealed my contempt towards such folk offering up silly naming schemes and tiers... I'm calling you out AMD!!
FreeSync Premium Goodest Betterer
@@kvykimo Im waiting for FreeSync Premium Goodest Betterer PLUS BLACK Edition*
The name was changed from FreeSync 2 to FreeSync Premium because of marketing.
Anyone, anywhere, if they see "2" they will abandon "1" because of "newer".
But the vendors don't want to abandon freesync name especially for low end monitor, so they forced AMD to change the name.

I’m also getting visions of Capcom’s naming scheme for Street Fighter. Either that, or an anime series name.

Love the artificial screen tear xD nice touch. editor is on point.
Apparently, this video was edited by "A Robot".
OMG a 70's pr0n star!
I thought you would explain their cpus naming scheme
Same

I mean it's not that confusing
@@Melonese their cpu naming scheme isn't confusing at all
@Antonino well no shit, just saying that the title should say freesync or something
Editor: "A Robot"
OK, This is scary..
So someone else did notice that
Well, it has been like that for a couple of times. Presumably an editor on trial did the edit.
@@masterofking1910 Or they have an AI that does the editing now :D
@@mischa7823 That would be epic.
I like the fact that, they are showing on screen, everything they're explaining
The confusion on his face when he says "something like Applebees" is hilarious.
I guess I must be the only person on the planet who is happy with the Freesync name changes. To me it makes it much more clear what I am going to get. Plus, Premium seems like what most gamers should aim for in quality. I like that there is a middle tier that actually makes sense.
0:32 This was not screen tearing by your device, its a demonstration by the editor. So subtile, but great job.
If somebody doesn't find LFR anywhere it is called LFC
I'm pretty sure its LFC
The screenshots during the video show that it is LFC! LFR doesn't even make sense! How did LTT miss this?
This is not a confusing naming scheme. It is what AMD needed to do long ago. Nvidia saw this gap, stepped in and claimed all the good Freesync monitors under the Nvidia brand.
Dear TechQuicke,
Your channel provides great explanations with understandable animations and a nice tone that other explanation-channels just lacks. However, how are we supposed to find relevant information about tech if you keep using clickbaity titles. This one in particular should be called FreeSynch's confusing naming schemes and not AMD's, just as an example.
Over time I've seen this channel go more and more into non-relevant or slightly hit-and-miss titles that, in retro spect, make it really hard to find the specific explanation I am in need of.
I have a proposition for a solution: Keep putting a bit hit-and-miss "clickbaity" title for new videos, but after a week or so, just rename them to a boring and actually descriptive title. This way, you get the benefit of the first weeks extra views AND the benefit of a useful backlog that can easily be searched.
Keep up the good work and I hope that you consider this!
"Freesync Premium Pro"

OMG screen tearing and stutter was so good by the editor!
Still can't get used to the moustache lol
Hey guys! I've a tech question. I was learning blender and when the part of animation came, I saw the frame rate 29.97 fps which puzzled me because having 29.97 frames per second doesn't make sense to me. I tried to look at internet about this but don't know what that mean. I'd be happy if you can explain me what happens to 0.03 frames every second.
this guy explains it ruclips.net/video/3GJUM6pCpew/видео.html
@@otobot1 I looked up at it before but I honestly didn't understand it.
@@imyasharya You may be overthinking this? The way I rationalize it, is that the monitor displays a frame every 33.3667ms. It doesn't have to display an integer number of frames in a second.
The side effect of this is for every ~33.5 seconds of footage 1 frame is "missing" (ie 1,004 frames instead of 1,005 @ 30.0 FPS)
It's like 29 frames, and 97% of the last frame is sent by the GPU in 1 sec
Love the fade out at the end XD

Xbox: A naming complexity contest? Hold my beer...
The original name, "Xbox" has a meaning. The guy that thought it up was wise. He made his wife mad and was banished from the bedroom that night. As he sat at his desk playing PC games he thought, Man, wish I could play these on the couch, where I will sleep tonight. So he designed a console made to be played on the couch. How did he come up with the name? He combined all the elements. When it is game time but the wife put an X on her box. Go to the couch and play the console.
I am just kidding. Nobody at Microsoft is that smart. "X" stands for unknown because they weren't intelligent enough to give it a proper name. They still aren't so they just keep using more X's.
What's wrong with the XboxSeX?
"Editor: A Robot"
What the heck does that mean?
LMG has a 6-month probation period for new employees. During that time, they don't get their name on credits and they don't appear in videos - not even in the background.

Bitdefender is still around 😯
Low Framerate Compensation is LFC; not LFR, that's kinda how acronyms work. Way to add confusion to an already confusing topic, RILEY (and whomever wrote the script!)
It's spelled LFC, but pronounced "LFR" according to the author
is it possible to run free sync and g-sync monitors from the same computer if you have an AMD and Nvidia graphics card in the same computer?
Could you do a video about the submarine internet cables, how they work and who installs them?
I want the old techquickies back: someone speaking fast with almost no jokes n stuff
no this is better
I'm new to all this, but if I have a FreeSync Premium monitor(with the Extended, Basic and Off options on it), should I set it to Off and then activate the G-Sync on the Nvidia Panel? Or it's possible to use FreeSync Extented while the G-Sync is on?
(my monitor accepts G-Sync in the Nvidia Panel; the GPU is a RTX 2060.)
Thank you!
Thank you very much for such a comprehensive explanation.
Still better than g-sync certification levels.
i love it when i first hear of something in your "confusing explained" videos
Oh god.
I think I'm actually used to the mustache by now
I totally love it. :D
I'm still confused
Seeing you tearing up to demo the effect felt just like home 😅
That USB-C shirt always looks to me like it's barfing out laser beams
OK then what is the difference between Freesync Basic and Extended on LG monitors?
AMD offers superior performance and value in CPUs compared to Intel now. Has AMD beat Nvidia in the GPU arms race yet?
Not with those drivers
Maybe if they release their next lineup properly, and not silently launch one card at a time (and the top one last)
But if nvidia releases 7nm GPUs soon and aren't too greedy for dat cash (like usually) they'll probably "win"
Will HDR make chicken murdering on Minecraft look better? Asking for a friend, another friend and another overtly curious friend hiding within!

Keshav Pujari nice try Keshav! That name is only slightly similar to Austin!
finally an explanation video that doesn't suck. THANKS
He's a good presenter. Good tutorial calling out BS 😂✌️
Literally eating Applebees when I was watching this! 🤣🤣🤣
Not sure I understand… If you have a high end graphics card (an RTX for example), does that mean you don't need Freesync or G-Sync? Even if you only have a 60Hz monitor, the graphics card will surely generate more than 60 fps..? Except in 4K maybe.
Next : Freesync premium pro super gaming RGB
To be fair, it's kinda convenient, just not self explanatory. They should just have gone with "Premium HDR" instead of "Premium Pro", if you ask me.
Or just kept Freesync 2 and named the higher one something like Freesync 2+
1:46 It's LFC, not LFR
2:55 With the mustache this line really creeped me out.
Do I have to understand what HDR has to do with display synchronization?

Linus is fit
He really looks like he has a nine pack
I know he's rolling in the women
I'm drunk watching this at 3 am. This could be vulcan as far as I can tell.
This is still a lot more sensible than most tech designations. I'm looking at you USB Forum and Intel.....
So what happens when you play a 30 FPS Switch game on a free sync monitor that can’t downgrade lower than 40 fps? does it still copy the frames and make it 60 fps? 40 fps? or neither?
best guy in the whole LTT squad.
Isn't g sync now works on freesync monitors after Nvidia driver updates?
Should have been Freesync, Freesync 1.5, and Freesync 2. Ez, AMD marketing hmu.
Riley, try going full beard and mustache 👍🏻
0:09 Riley, we're looking at you....
Your excused Riley.
My monitor has 144hz and freesync 2 and also support the basic hdr 400. So i have freesync premium pro?
Looking at the difference between SDR and HDR on non-HDR monitor.
How about an episode about: "Video signals/connectors", what is the difference between VGA, DVI-I, DVI-D onward to DP and HDMI?
I bought a monitor from last year and it shows free sync 2 and not free sync premium,when did the naming scheme change ?
So if you need a display port. Freesync premium pro on Xbox Series X is just malarkey???
How about a discussion on monitoring software, for testing purposes, and whats available and where to get them. Stuff to monitor different chip speeds, temps, things like that.
Whats the difference between the VRR setting on the monitor and the gsync setting of the monitor?
Anyone know why when I turn Freesync on I get screen tearing while playing MKV videos back on my PC?
is it due to the 75Hz monitor? it only happens when freesync is on, when I turn it off the top of the videos no longer tear and look like two frames are stuck together.
“Meticulous color and luminance certification” probably means that the display needs to be pre-calibrated to a known color space (like SRGB or Adobe RGB)
I cant figure out what HDR has to do with the tearing and adaptive refresh rate standard...
Why not just make a independent standard that can be a 2nd lil icon on packaging of monitors that support it.
I have seen tearing on HDR monitors in games that support HDR, its a whole different problem
I totally get how it needs to be built into the game tho, thats a no brainer
Riley is the Ron Burgundy of LTT
If I don't have a HDR monitor, why do those pictures look different?
So to use HDR and Adaptive Sync you need compatible games or? Can't I just use Freesync and enable HDR?
I appreciate 1:00.
I love the confusion reading applebee's
Should I turn on AMD Freesync Premium Pro? If I turn it on should i use G-sync with it or not?
This dude looks like Luka Doncic with a mustache
I have a g force video card with free sync work?
nVidia does the same with G Sync Compatible, G Sync and G Sync Ultimate !
You can enable gsync with an nvidia card on a freesync monitor
okay, but what about their CPUs and GPUs naming?
@OnlyOnPSVR2 I have the AOC C24G1A(HDMI 2.0) monitor hooked up to my Xbox series X. I have AMD freesync premium turned on my monitor hooked up with my Elgato HD60X because I do stream from my computer. What other settings am I supposed to turn on in my Xbox series X?
What's the difference between AMD Freesync Premium High, and AMD Freesync Premium Wide? I can't find any info anywhere on it and what's the best setting. Please help!😫
Hey do ya think you could link to AMD's website with said games?
i've used bitdefender for years and it's awesome and worth the cost, it's on all of my pc;s laptops and phones i also recommend it to people i build pc's for
but what if i have the ASUS VG248QG monitor (supports Freesync Premium and G-Sync and has ELMB/Extreme Low Motion Blur) and i have the hp pavilion gaming laptop 15-ec2007np (with NVIDIA Geforce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU and the AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon graphics and two Hynix 8gb 3200Mhz RAM's) whats better G-Sync (or G-Sync compatible i dont know you see what type of G-Sync it is) or Freesync Premium relying on my setup
I'd like to get me some of that
does freesync premium work with nvidia gpus?
That look when he said Applebee's got me.
Wait, so not all HDR supported games works with HDR in FreeeSync Premium Pro?
And does newer Nvidia cards support all features on FreeSync Premium Pro monitors, including HDR- incase they are Gsync compatible?
