Looks like this one will fit the bill: https://www.mwave.com.au/product/lg-29um69gb-29-ultrawide-full-hd-freesync-ips-75hz-led-gaming-monitor-ac03956#detailTabs=tabSpecifications

P.S. You will have a very hard time finding a g-sync monitor at that price.

Thanks, and isn't Freesync just for AMD graphics cards, or does it still sync the vertical 'lines' even with a Nvidia graphics card?

Freesync is for AMD cards and G-sync is for Nvidia cards. What both technologies essentially do is sync the monitors refresh rate to the frame rate that the video card is putting out. Freesync and G-sync most notably improve smoothness when the fps is below the monitors refresh rate, if the fps of your game is higher than your refresh rate the difference is not really noticeable.

Great! So essentially it is branding for the same feature (I think...)

Thank you!

They are essentially the same feature but you can only use freesync with an AMD card and g-sync with an Nvidia card.

Thanks, again - also for clearing my thinking of that up. I'll keep this topic open in case someone else has another option for a monitor.
