Whatever your pick is basically base upon your budget, but I can say freesync = gsync in terms of usage but freesync is way cheaper. A freesync monitor cost at least few hundred cheaper. I personally went with a RX480 and a Viewsonic XG2401. the AOC G2460PF is not really a good choice base on reviews saying the colour is not as good. You can read here for more info.

QUOTE(blackblackk @ Aug 20 2016, 03:05 PM) I'd say go with gsync.. I'm using freesync and screen tearing is still pretty bad on some games. Like dota and rocket league has bad screen tearing while rise of the tomb raider and mass effect series is still decent. I don't know how gsync is better, but if you let me choose again I'll go gsync considering my experience. whats your freesync range on the monitor? certain model only goes up to 75hzedit: I realize that freesync works best within 40-70 fps. My dota and rocket league is going over 120 fps in-game. Maybe thats the problem.  |

QUOTE(blackblackk @ Aug 20 2016, 10:56 PM) icic, then mine probably goes to only 75hz, meaning i should turn on vsync and freesync at the same time? normally i turn off vsync since i have freesync |

QUOTE(afkdanial @ Aug 23 2016, 12:12 PM) My overall budget for my intended rig is about 6K, including monitor and peripherals, which is why I'm leaning more towards Freesync. Thank you for the link, really interesting to read his points and the reviews of the other monitors. Right now, I think that the Viewsonic XG2401 is what I'm looking for. Really positive reviews on Tom's Hardware and PC Monitors. Btw, which RX 480 card are you using ? And how is your personal experience with the Viewsonic XG2401 so far ? XG2401 is not available in Malaysia yet |
