Gaming on freesync with nvidia gpu?

Hello folks! Did anyone have chance to game on freesync monitor with nvidia gpu?

When I say gaming I mean csgo and other fast fps phase games.
LG 34UC79g is monitor that i'm interested (lg 34uc89 is to expensive).

Thanks!

you dont want to limit your FPS in CS. pretty sure freesync only works with AMD :( 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

NVIDIA cards do not support FreeSync. You can use FreeSync monitors but they will just be like a normal monitor when using an NVIDIA card.

If you go into the Nvidia Control Panel you can manually enable Fast-Sync, which is much better and lower latency than V-Sync and doesn't cap FPS but still eliminates tearing.

you can still play you just don't get the freesync [or equivalent] advantage that's all... whether the tearing issue is a major priority for u to take care depends on your needs.

it will function as normal but the refresh rates will remain consistent so you might have some micro tearing in between some frames depending on the variability.
