Monitor Recommendations for Native G-Sync, 1440p and a GTX 970

So after finally getting a beefy new PC built about a month ago, I've been mostly enjoying myself but I still hope to get my old monitor replaced as well. It's a AOC G2460PC 1st gen G-Sync monitor, I've had it for almost 4 years and it's kinda in rough shape with what looks like burn-in(?) some ligh...

Need help with seeking out an Android phone with emulation in mind

I hope I'm posting this in the right place, but anyway- My current phone is dying (ZTE Axon 7) and I'm looking to replace it. I mainly want something beefy enough for the majority of RA cores. I thought about replacing it with the ROG Phone II since it's on sale but after seeing this https://zentalk...

FreeSync 30hz Question

I've noticed with a lot of FreeSync ranges, they don't seem to dip below 40/48hz on average. Same with any G-Sync compatible display. I bring this up because as a Mame fan, there are some games I play that run in 30hz, mostly some old Midway games like Rampage, Tapper and Satan's Hollow. Also some I...

Samsung Q9 FreeSync Question

I'm considering saving my pennies for a Samsung QLED mainly for it's FreeSync support but I wanted to know something. With FreeSync in 4K, it caps out at 60hz and you can have up 144hz in I believe both 1440p and 1080p. Is there any way possible to get just a little bit of a higher refresh rate on t...

Is G-Sync still worth it or should I go FreeSync?

So with nVidia now caving and supporting Adaptive Sync/FreeSync now, I'm trying to figure out if G-Sync monitors are truly worthless and should never be considered at this point. I've been wanting to really upgrade from my over 2-year old AOC G2460PG for something like LG's UltraGear 27GL850G which ...
