I was looking for a 144hz gaming monitor for Ps4 and laptop and found one that is only sold in the USA. Now my question: how about Freesync and Gsync? I have a Gtx 1650, what should I watch out for? Can someone explain me in detail?

Gsync is for nvidia graphics cards and freesync is for amd grakas. But it is practically the same. You need one with gsync.

I would recommend gigabyte's m27q

Or

Sure you want to use gsync or freesync at all? That was important to me at the beginning, but when I got a 144hz monitor the tearing was gone and gsync / freesync also caused delay

St

Yes it is that thing I have no idea about freesync and gsync

St

I already know that, but is it sync essential or can I use the full 144hz without it

su

You don't need it. Only reduces tearing. Didn't find the feature essential at all because I have 2 144 hz monitors and one has freesync deactivated and the other on. The one with freesync definitely looks nicer. But that could also be due to the panel. I don't see any difference

Thank you so much, okay, now I understand it better. So it doesn't really matter for the most part? I only need the 144hz monitor as a 2nd screen for the gaming laptop and possibly soon for the Ps5

Ka how the mim laptop goes. Never had one. You'd have to ask someone else

some also swear by freesync

but as a 2t monitor everything will be fine
