Compatible with all PCs and the XBone (S & X). Might actually make me consider upgrading my TV again...

It's awesome for Xbox One players -- a distinct competitive advantage Microsoft has over Sony's PlayStation 4 -- and equally awesome for PC gamers with Radeon graphics cards who typically shy away from living room gaming because of the lack of FreeSync. I'm not exaggerating here. It's a game-changer that delivers tear-free, very smooth gaming and makes the overall experience much more enjoyable even with low-to-midrange GPUs.
Is this really a big thing? I have my PC hooked up to a 50" plasma that's about 6 years old and I don't really notice any tearing. Granted I'm only doing 1080p, but I've been playing most AAA titles from the last two years on ultra settings with no problems.
