Now, via a post on NVIDIA's GeForce forums, ManuelGuzmanNV, with a Customer Care badge, has said, in answer to a users' question on Variable Refresh-Rate support for NVIDIA's 9000 series, that "Sorry but we do not have plans to add support for Maxwell and below". So this means that only NVIDIA's 1000 and 2000-series of GPUs will be getting said support, thus reducing the number of users for which VRR support on NVIDIA graphics cards is relevant. At the same time, this might serve as a reason for those customers to finally make the jump to one of NVIDIA's more recent graphics card generations, in case they don't already own a VRR-capable monitor and want to have some of that smoothness. Actually it makes sense also that NVIDIA should not spend money on new features for old cards in my personal opinion.

    AMD gave cards as far back as the 7000 series Freesync, at the time it was two or three gens back from the R9 200 series.
     
    I think.

    It's smart business... Just because you are salty about it doesn't mean that they are making bad choices. If I was in their shoes, I would likely do the same.
