Few questions about monitors

[Nojuz]

I'm pretty tight on budget, with around 150 euros. I found this monitor, which is around 150 euros.

I've been using a 720p TV (around 25-26 inch) for gaming past couple years, so I thought i'll change that.

I got an intel i5 4590 and a gtx 750ti, which I should change in about a year and a half (don't know if i'll go for gtx or amd) , when i'll be able to work at summer.

So, is this monitor any good and worth buying? 

Also I wanna know if 60hz and 75 hz makes a big difference (or even 120hz)

75hz is a noticeable step up over 60hz. The higher the refresh rate the harder it is to notice improvement.

It does, but you can just ignore that feature if you have an NVIDIA card. It doesn't affect the price of the monitor.

The FreeSync feature only works with AMD GPUs (and Intel can use it, but not sure if they've actually implemented it yet). However, the monitor itself will still work fine as a normal monitor. As FreeSync is essentially AdaptiveSync, which is part of the Display Port standard, the monitor doesn't have an extra module like GSync monitors do, so there's generally no extra cost for the FreeSync feature.

Okey thanks, but is there a big difference between 75hz and 120? Worth the money?
