Hey Guys i need your help

 

I am Finally decided to upgrade from 1080p monitor to WQHD monitor (which is no brainier) , but from here i have a Dilemma...

 

I am not a GAMER per-SE , i like playing games but i own 1070 which says a lot about my expectations (at least i hope so) , i am more of a Movie Geek and a TV series geek , and i like watching sports too.

 

I set my eye on 2 monitors :

 

1) MSI Optix MAG271CQR 27'' LED (Has better specs but it's a FreeSync Monitor)

2) Asus PG278QR 27'' LED LCD (Better Suited to my Card , but more expensive)

 

This both monitors are at least 144HZ monitors , with a great SRGB cover , and a good brightness , i am just wondering if the lack of GSYNC will impact that much in games?

 

Which one would you choose instead of me (Please keep in mind that content that i consume) ?

 

i am open to any advice's from everyone...

 

Thanks for your attention...

for gaming I like Asus one better.

but if you're not a hard core gamer. then MSI would be a better choice. cheaper, slightly better color and curved, more immersive for movies

 

For G-sync. well, if you're sensitive to screen shuttering then you might need a G-sync. or simply turn in-game V-sync on and accept some little input lag. if you never use the g-sync and never have any problem, then forget about the sync, you don't need it.

To be honest i never used GSYNC before , i know it help with the tearing issue of course , but how much ? because as you can see the MSI monitor is better and cheeper , and maybe because it's a Freesync it will be supported by NVIDIA...

for me, I don't really feel much. 144hz is already smooth like butter and i don't think the sync is necessary.
