I'm looking for a new monitor with the price range of 280-330 pounds, and i really like the things i've seen and heard about the Samsung CFG70. But is it worth it?

That's Samsungs 144Hz 1ms VA monitor. Specs look good. It's also Samsung.

Personally I consider VA better than IPS. Due to darker blacks and no backlight bleeding.

 

IPS is has more vivid colors and backlight bleeding.

 

This is a review from Samsung.com

"...Also the freesync technology, for those who doesn't know, freesync is working only between a certain range of FPS, 48-70, 70-144, 40-144, this screen is the worst... it works between 90 and 144hz. FreeSync is cheap... "

Yes. I wasn't planning on using freesync because i have a nvidia graphics card. But the specs do indeed look good.
