60Hz vs 75Hz / Is FreeSync worth on 75hz?

If 75Hz is the answer I'm left with ASUS VX279H and LG 27MP68VQ-P. Specwise identical except the LG has FreeSync, tho I don't feel like playing HotS at 75 FPS which would make the FreeSync feature useless so I will probably go for the ASUS. What do you think?

well like i said freesync operates at a specific range, and if you go outside this range then freesync will be useless. also freesync isn't that expensive, unlike gsync. 

if you're looking for the range, you will have to research the monitor's technical specs. 

 

any game will be able to use freesync. just make sure the game is within operational range + it's enabled in both the monitor OSD and radeon software, and freesync will work. also turn off vsync as freesync won't work effectively with vsync in tandem 

 

most importantly tho, you should have an AMD GPU. otherwise freesync will not work. 

Hi, I plan to buy new monitor and I've selected a few models from which I will choose one. The difference between those is the refresh rate: 60hz, 75hz and 75hz with FreeSync.

 

So i have couple of questions. Does 75Hz refresh rate is any better than 60Hz? ; Is there difference between 75Hz and 75Hz with FreeSync? ...and Does even 75Hz FreeSync monitor make any sense if i can push like twice the FPS? (I mean should i limit myself to 75FPS with FreeSync if i can just play at 150+ provided the screen tear doesn't bother me too much)

 

I'm looking for the cheapest option, unless paying a bit extra for that 75Hz is worth.

 

Thanks. : )

what 75 hz freesync monitors are you looking at? because freesync operates at a range specific to the monitor.

 

75 hz is an appreciable smoothness difference compared to 60 hz. it might not as big a difference as 60hz to 100hz or 144hz so it'll be a little harder to notice at first.

freesync is only for AMD gpus. 60-75 is nice but 60hz is fine

When you have Freesync/G-SYNC, the refresh rate of the monitor is modified to run at the same rate as the GPU(as the frame rate lowers), so yeah there's merit to having a Freesync enabled monitor.

See if the 75 or 75 Free sync can OC well. Try to push it to like 85HZ
