Is a G-sync monitor worth the money?

I bought a pg278q and at first I didn't really notice a difference.
When I sold my card to upgrade to a 1080 and had to go a week with a gpu and using igpu only, I could see a massive difference, even at 60fps.
It's hard to explain really, but once you used it, you wont want to go back.

Depends, what gpu you have. If your gpu can hold a 144fps not to far above or below on the game you're playing, the difference isn't noticable, it really comes down to personal preferece and specs.

Only if you can't hold your frame rate at or above your monitor's refresh rate. If you have a 1070 at 1080p, G-sync is worthless

Only you know you will stick with nVidia for the years coming no matter how good AMD can make their GPU be.

Once you buy an AMD card, your GSync will be useless.
