FreeSync-Enabled Displays at the 2015 International CES

demonstrate their commitment to open-standards technology, offering gamers the
highest quality visuals possible —

SINGAPORE — 2015
International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) – Jan. 6, 2015  — AMD(NASDAQ: AMD) today announced the expansion
of the FreeSync ecosystem as technology partners including BenQ, LG
Electronics, Nixeus, Samsung, and Viewsonic showcased their upcoming
commercially available FreeSync1-enabled displays at
the 2015 International CES. The unveiling of new FreeSync-enabled displays
demonstrates the industry’s commitment to open standards-based technology that
enables improved gaming by synchronizing dynamic refresh rates of the displays to
the frame rate of AMD Radeon™ R-Series graphics cards and current generation
APUs. The result greatly reduces input latency and helps reduce or eliminate
visual defects during gaming and video playback. The new displays range in size
between 24” to 34”, supporting refresh rates of 30 to 144 Hz, and resolutions
of 1080p up to Ultra HD, offering a variety of options for every gamer’s needs
and at virtually every price point. 

“The broad adoption of FreeSync technology from our partners
shows how the industry strongly values the same open ecosystem and quality that
AMD strives for,” said Roy Taylor, corporate vice president, ISV/IHV Partner
Group, AMD. “Gamers who use FreeSync technology with AMD Radeon™ R-Series
graphics and AMD latest generation of APUs can rest assured that they’re
enjoying the best possible experience.”

Monitors from BenQ, LG Electronics, Nixeus, and Samsung are on
display at AMD’s booth, San Polo rooms 3402 – 3404 at The Venetian at CES Tech West. Displays are
expected to be available in market starting this month with additional models
set to launch in early 2015.
