Uploading your Dxdiag report might help determine if your hardware is Freesync compatible.

Yes the DXdiag is on there already ? is it not showing up for you ?

Anyway, Im sure my hardware is good as the windmill demo shows freesync in operation and seems to work in other games with certain drivers

However BF1 does not allow any of the old drivers that are confirmed as working with Freesync.

OK ,

After much testing and googling I can get freesync to work if i limit the FPS to 1 or 2 FPS lower than the particular screen mode (using the frame limiter in AMD settings)

for example limit to 118 FPS , if it ever gets to 119 or 120 i get tearing again

Fact is i shouldnt have to do this as its a potential contributor to more input lag, however It may be an issue with my monitor AOC G2770PF

AOC have offered a firmware update but wont tell me if this is a know issue or not.
