G‑SYNC Pulsar is the latest version of G-SYNC, which was originally introduced way back in 2013, banishing screen tearing and sluggish response times with variable refresh rates (VRR). Variable Refresh Rate allows a monitor to adjust its refresh rate in real time to match the output from your graphics card. G‑SYNC Pulsar builds on VRR by combining it with variable frequency backlight strobing, a technique designed to reduce LCD motion blur. With G‑SYNC Pulsar, the monitor briefly pulses its backlight in precise sync with each frame, only illuminating pixels once they have fully transitioned to their new state. This strobing is done dynamically, on a per‑frame basis, and remains fully synchronized with VRR.
