Ah, gotcha.
It doesn't make much sense yet. HDMI 2.1 spec will be finalized and send to tv manufacturers in august. The earliest hdmi 2.1 tvs will be announced at ces 2018, likely high end models. Before devs can seriously start making games with freesync in mind it will be next gen. It would allow for some cool slow motion / stop motion effects or fast action segments. However until it is standard the most you can hope for is games running a little faster 28-38 fps uncapped, as they'll still be targeted to max out 30fps. (Unless it's a lazy mid gen upgrade without any extras, just let it run faster at a higher resolution with the same assets) At least screen tear will be gone and no more need for tripple buffering which will reduce input lag.
