The new API for FreeSync 2 lets games adjust the tone map according to the display’s target contrast, luminance, and color space. With the FreeSync 2 specification, you won’t need to tweak your monitor’s settings to get the best image quality. In short, it’s a bumped-up version for AMD’s display-syncing tech for gamers, adding support for a better and smoother picture to HDR monitors. The result is a brightness and color volume that’s more than double the brilliance of sRGB. AMD says all FreeSync 2 monitors will also have support for Low Framerate Compensation. AMD intends for the new iteration of FreeSync to co-exist alongside the original specification. However, the company reserves the FreeSync 2 designation for premium displays with HDR support. Also, all Radeon graphics cards that already support FreeSync will be compatible with FreeSync 2 technology as well, including the Radeon RX series GPUs that uses Polaris architecture to support DisplayPort3 HBR3 and enable Ultra HD resolution beyond 60Hz. The FreeSync 2 specification will enable monitor manufacturers to produce higher-quality displays that leverage FreeSync technology. The plug-and-play technology will provide impressive color gamut and brightness compared to other monitors. FreeSync 2 will come to monitors built by various manufacturers in the first half of 2017.
