How valuable is g-sync?

[Bab22]

Hey guys need an opinion, I am looking to get a 144hz 1440p monitor for my gaming rig which gives me two choices, the BenQ XL2730z or the ASUS PG278q.

 

The difference between the two is that the Asus has G-sync (and costs $200 more) and the Benq doesnt.

 

What are your guys opinions of g-sync?

if you have an nvidia gpu, its worth it, if you plan to move to AMD then its not worth it, and if you plan to stay an nvidia customer, its also worth it

I don't believe in neither gsync or gravity

Yeah i have a 780 atm and a planning on sli'ing to try and get most games maxed at nearly 144hz I am an nvidia fanboy so i plan to stick with them

gsync is going to be very valuable for maximum eye candy, I just wish it didn't cost as much. Hopefully it'll be more affordable in the future.

G-sync if you have a nvidia card is awesome. It makes your games look butter smooth (if you card can handle butter smooth already) and its just great. If you can get it and use it, then go for it, its an awesome little bonus.

 

Free-sync is the same thing, but more available.

the importance of gsync for gaming is on the same magnitude as color TV is for movies
