Graphics cards/monitors sync technologies are confusing help me please ?

[DustHaze]

 

Hi guys

 

My questions are

Does the free-sync/g-sync make a huge noticeable difference enough to spend extra cash on it?

What is the best to buy, a 1080p 60hz monitor(because g-sync is expensive)  paired with GTX 1060 or higher cards to get no tearing or stuttering using fast sync,

to get an RX 580 or higher paired with a1080p 144hz free-sync monitor? (because they are cheaper + RX cards can stay in the sync range)

or to get a 1060 or higher with a 144hz 1080p monitor if syncing is not an issue.

I ask these questions because I don't know how these cards will preform  without sync, will it matter or not.

 

I will appreciate your answers

Nvidia is gsync, AMD is freesync. If it costs significantly more to get one of those monitors, just get a regular one.

Honestly if you are going for high refresh rate you won't really notice gsync on vs off. If you are at lower fps with a high refresh rate monitor you will notice the difference.

well the G-sync is about 380+ euros , the free-sync is quite affordable for 250+(I'm only talking about 144hz monitors )

Then you should probably get the freesync monitor with an RX 580.

someone said there will be tearing on a 144hz but not like like 60hz monitor, it depends also on the frames the graphics card is pushing

Depends on the person. I absolutely notice it

let me tell you I feel uncomfortable when I see something is wrong

@Vroooom one time I bought a laptop and I saw a dead pixel that turned to red after that I returned it, I notice details

I'm in my way to complete my build but dammn I'm stuck with this question about what the best to buy, I ready made my mind on all parts except graphics card/ monitor

you can follow this question if you are so lazy to do yours

get a sync tech if you can. I mean i have 240 hz monitor and i can't tell the difference between gsync off vs on at 200 ish fps but at 100 or less i can tell. if you are picky just get one of the sync techs like freesync or gsync

Gsync is Nvidia and monitor makers pay Nvidia for each monitor they produce that features it. Freesync is AMD and monitor makers are not charged to implement it, thus Freesync monitors tend to be cheaper.

 

If you have Nvidia GPU -> go Gsync

If you have AMD GPU -> go Freesync

 

When comparing GPU prices, remember a monitor for Nvidia will cost extra if you want to use the Sync technology.
