Thats just wrong.

Its like G-Sync..it makes low fps (sub 60) feel smoother, so its basically perfect for games that run at say 30 fps and not perfectly so.

It also removes screen tearing.... which always sucks to have.

Actually Vivster is partially right, but there is more to it than that.

Anytime the display isn't matching the systems output, you will see gains. Doesn't matter if it's 30fps or 55fps.

Its much more noticeable at lower fps though.... like your screen is 60 hz, but your running a game at 29-30 fps.

If you have a 144hz monitor, and your running 100+ fps, it ll barely have any effect.

Gsync/Freesync are for people with slower refresh rate monitors, that run lower fps ranges, its where the main gains are.

Screen tearing removeal is good for all ranges, but again, its worse on a slower refresh rate.
