Well Overwatch is an odd ball as well because the game simulation time is directly tied to FPS as well which is dumb. So yeah you want the highest FPS possible in it. Battlenonsense also covered that here: https://youtu.be/nilBzupE4Cc
Either way, I think generally speaking, except for a few fringe/minuscule cases, you WANT Gsync.
I think that's the biggest fail. Like, u bought everything except the one thing everyone could appreciate, 144Hz+, IP for nicer screen but more response time, I am fine with TN 1ms response time that is a lot cheaper, 1080p or 1440p whatever, 24" 27" whatever, but 144Hz vs 60Hz, what makes the biggest difference for gammers.Is G-Sync worth it? I think so . . . sort of. I can give you my experience if it helps. I upgraded from an older Dell 27" 1440p IPS @ 60Hz to that exact monitor, and don't at all regret the purchase. Gaming on it did indeed feel smoother, but I also upgraded my GPU at the same time (290x to 1070) for the total package, so obviously, it was better for that reason alone. Last week, however, I made the jump to 4k, and used my 1070 while waiting on my new 1080 Ti. I can tell the difference now that I no longer have it. For me personally, G-Sync was worth it, but I could certainly live without it if it came at the expense of better hardware in other areas such as a better CPU, GPU, or in my case, 4k.

u play bf4? u get into a heli and turn around and everything is super choppy/stuttery/laggy/flickery?, u turn it to 144Hz and everything goes smooth all of a sudden, no amd freesync or gsync. (but i am getting a gsync monitor in a week)
when u write like that, u never seen a 144Hz before, any game u play, also RPG, 144Hz is what removes choppyness when u turn around ur axis. I played currently on 144Hz with fps going free above and below and I don't see any tearing even it's probably happening, but that's the beauty with 144Hz, u don't really see it.

That's why I am going to pay a bit extra for gsync.Oh I understand how monitors work. It's not like I sold my old monitors. I'm not limited to a single monitor choice, or even a single PC for that matter. I typically don't play first person shooters all that much. I'm more of an RPGer, so I prefer large, highly detailed landscapes and eye candy over responsiveness. As I said, however, I can still appreciate and enjoy what 144 Hz adaptive sync brings. In an ideal world, I want everything, but I just can't have it yet. One day I'll have a 40" 144 Hz adaptive sync 4K monitor, but until then, I'll settle for my 3 monitor setup that I can switch between at need.
Yep, *Sync is so nice for 99% of gamers that they are missing out by not using it. Only those who are playing "Pro" FPS and love that tearing so they can have a 1ms faster response time should do without it
Would a 60hz freesync monitor be better than a non-freesync 120/144hz monitor? I remembered people saying that high refresh rates made screen tearing less noticeable even without freesync.

Download the gsync pendulum demo. Turn off vsync / freesync and turn it to the fastest animation and the bar (show test pattern bottom left). You should see tearing easily when freesync is turned off and it will smooth out the bar when turned on. Check your OSD to see if there is an option to show the current refresh rate (my Acer shows it top right) as it should match the FPS and constantly go up/down as the fps does.
I noticed that most freesync 60hz monitors don't have LFC enabled and that feature is more common with 144hz monitors. I would prefer 120/144hz monitors because working with text eg scrolling would look alot better.Completely up to preference. Are you going to be gaming at FPS > 60? 70? 100? 120?
If you are only going to have say 50 fps avg on a 144hz monitor I'd say get a 60hz one with *Sync instead.
Personally I'd go for a mix, 75-100hz UW 3440x1440 with *Sync vs a 4k (imho waste too high pixel density / performance hit).
There does seem to be more issues with that AOC model. There does seem to be some odd fixes in some threads which you could try if you still have the monitor. Many monitors have blur reduction/ulmb OSD setting which can cause flickering if its set high.I use currently, playing BF4 with wandering fps, I never noticed screen tearing tbh
I just prefer to get a 144Hz rather, and all monitors basically have freesync, since it's free.. manufacturers give it out for free just to get ahead of pricy g-sync module monitors that cost ~120€ extra for the same model.
Just, DO NOT GET a AOC G2460PF, that $#!/'s broken, I listed my problems here in a post
http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/anti-flicker-monitors-is-expensive.2508440/
and remember, freesync works only with AMD, but I had severe problems with it, maybe unlucky me but who knows
I have such a thing here. The monitor is the
ASUS PB278/ 60 Hz refresh /PLS Panel/25 x14 res /5 ms response time with gsync. According to that description above, gsync will have no effect .
In Doom the cpu pushes fps from 60 to 85 fps. One thing stands out, that the fps clearly exceed the 60 Hz digital frequency of the monitor.
A miracle ?
I noticed that some of the freesync 60hz monitors don't have LFC enabled and that feature is more common with 144hz monitors. I would prefer 120/144hz monitors because working with text eg scrolling would look alot better.
I tried different drivers, nothing helped.I noticed that most freesync 60hz monitors don't have LFC enabled and that feature is more common with 144hz monitors. I would prefer 120/144hz monitors because working with text eg scrolling would look alot better.

And AMD crimson caused flickering issues with freesync which was fixed/broken in some driver versions.

It's possible with the Acer XB321HK? 4K 60Hz GSync.The OP's question was whether GSync was worth it. As I said earlier, I think it is. If, however, 4K is important to you, it simply isn't possible.

So you'll get tearing unless you use VSync or a frame limiter to limit the game output to under 60 fps.
No. That was one point in the post .I would of course have reported any problems and there is absolutely no tearing--movement is smooth and clean. That concern, about fps above refresh always causing problems, is perhaps out dated with modern equipment and certainly does not apply here.
No... you must have had some kind of vsync enabled. It's impossible to not have tearing with it off when above or below refresh rate.
Maybe you were in borderless windowed mode which uses WDDM to apply triple buffered VSync, but something was preventing it or you just don't notice it.
Curious, but there was no vsync since the frequency is 60 hz and the fps were well over that, always between 65-85. So no vsync which would have matched fps to refresh rate @ 60.
You can still have vsync but "unlimited" fps. It will just buffer the extra rendered frames but only update the display when full frames are available.
Full frames are only available on this monitor every 1/60 secs and total 60 every second. So how can buffering cause 85 fps on a 60 hz monitor?
