Radeon Technologies Group Update 2016: FreeSync and HDR
http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Graphics-Cards/Radeon-Technologies-Group-Update-2016-FreeSync-and-HDR
AMD holds a private symposium for select press members including PCPer to get a look at the new technology that is coming from RTG in 2016 / 2017. Looks like the R9 300 series of cards are going to get new life in 2016 when paired with HDR displays. Displayport 1.3 has 80% more bandwidth and still not enough to push a 5K HDR display. FreeSync over HDMI is coming, and they were bragging on the new implementation of FreeSync in the Crimson drivers when you get out of the VRR range (LFC).
1080p HDR displays look better than 4K displays. Repeat this guys. 1080p looks better than 4K. 80% more bandwidth to drive them. This is crazy cool!
Oh and now you can go to Best Buy and purchase a Lenovo Y700 FreeSync notebook which starts at $899.
