Posted October 14, 2015 I am planing to buy a monitor in about 2 months. The thing thats been bugging me is; Should I trade the Gsync capability over higher pixel.OR not?? Higher pixel means sharper and more vivid image quality. Where a Gsync would address to all the stuttering and screen tearing issues..Both the monitors provide me with 144Hz refresh rates.So, no issues there. The only purpose monitor would serve is gaming,with occasional movie watching. I am no photo developer,So as to need the extra pixels for screen space etc etc. I am looking forward to more pixels,just from the perspective of gaming.Nothing else. . . But the question that lies is should I opt for a higher pixel count(1440p) OR stick with 1080p with Gsnyc? . . My system drives a single 980Ti(No OC) . . Is screen tearing,really that noticable,coz I would mostly be playing FPS games. My main focus would be shifted towards killing the bad guys. I guess the only way I would see tearing and stuttering if I go on looking for them... . . So 1080P Gsync or 1440p?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 14, 2015 If you play FPS games like CS, then you will most likely want to disable G-sync anyway, since it increases latency if you want to see if you find screen tearing irretating, just load up a not so demanding FPS game, disable V sync, and put your mouse to a high sensitivity Long live Stalin, he loves you; sing these words, or you know what he’ll do!

Posted October 14, 2015 I will have to try out G-sync in the future if its that good. Although does it work in all games, like V-sync? The Gsync Module is in the Monitor. It synchronize the Hz of the Display with the FPS from the Graphicscard in real time. Its absolutly tearing and lagfree, not matter what Games you play. IPS 144hz + Gsync is a whole new expirience.

Posted October 14, 2015 I am the one who would be playing more of COD and Battlefied stuff. and I still practice on CS:1.6. Call me old school. Also how much input latency does Gsync cause?? Is it noticeable?? G-sync Is a LOT better than V-sync, but for people where every frame counts, for example pro players, G-sync is almost always disabeled. In games like Battlefield and COD, where 400 FPS is not possible, then, yes enable G-sync, its much better than without it BUT, in games like csgo, where you can get 400 + FPS, then disabling it would give an extra edge, but would make the game look worse in the process So really, it depends on how serious you play you should use G-sync on all other genres though Long live Stalin, he loves you; sing these words, or you know what he’ll do!

Have not used G-sync, but shadowplay does not reduce performance, its like having minesweeper open in the background pretty sure G-sync does not reduce performance Long live Stalin, he loves you; sing these words, or you know what he’ll do!

You cant get a clear answer because it depends of what you prefer. 1440p is awesome and superior to 1080p and Gsync is awesome and a huge difference to non Gsync Displays. Both is awesome.

Posted October 14, 2015 How about a BenQ XL2420G? Its a good Monitor, but too expensive when you can get superior Displays for ~200bucks more. Pro: 144Hz 1 ms Gsync Con: TN Panel 1080p 24" For a Monitor this expensive, you realy should think about safing more Money and get the Asus pg279q if there´s realy no chance to get the Acer.

Neither I have any experience of Gsync Nor 1440p. I cant personally tell what to expect from both of them. All that I can say I plan to play all FPS extensively.... Then best visual performance that I can get from my 980Ti. . . XL2420G here costs about 605 US$ here.While. PG278Q costs about 1004 US$. . .
