Probably their freesync is mostly ineffective on 60Hz but better on higher refresh rates, and they just made a good spin out of that in the marketing department.
I've have a monitor that locks to 33-92hz when free sync is enabled (144hz otherwise) it's way more useful at lower fps values that higher ones
Interesting. Yeah my comment was just a shitpost. But what you are saying makes it seem completely nonsensical what AMD is doing.
But then maybe they just want to push faster video cards, and freesync is something that people care about. Then they can still sell better cards to those people that don't know that freesync is less useful at higher refresh rates.
