Nvidia adds FreeSync support to its GPUs, but not for all monitors

FreeSync support is coming to Nvidia; at its CES event today, Nvidia announced the GSync-Compatible program, wherein it says it will test monitors that support the VESA DisplayPort Adaptive-Sync protocol to ascertain whether they deliver a "baseline experience" comparable to a GSync monitor. Coincidentally, AMD's FreeSync utilizes the same VESA-developed implementation, meaning that several FreeSync-certified monitors will now be compatible with Nvidia's 10- and 20-series GPUs. This is great news, since GSync support requires additional hardware and this increases prices; you'll find that the GSync version of a display is always significantly more expensive than the FreeSync version.
