Ok, Ive seen alot of comments discussing the response time. 1000/144=6.944 repeating. Meaning any monitor with less than a 7MS GTG time will be just fine for 144HZ, unless youre one of those people that cant dominate your favorite FPS or fighting game without using your Sharingan for awesome visual recognition. You might notice it, but it shouldnt effect the rated 144HZ at all. Please stop spreading misinformation. 144HZ at up to 7MS GTG is FINE.
Not to mention, once the scene starts moving, you are unlikely to notice any stuttering when the response time is lower than the time the frame is on the screen (presuming VSYNC and constant 144FPS output). Even if you notice a slight delay before the scene starts moving, if youre actually focusing on the game and not scouting for delay, you wont notice it. I can tell the difference between 60/60, 85/85, 120/120, and 144/144. Make sure your hardware can push out a frame rate thats as close to the refresh rate as possible. If you can only get 100FPS@1440P in a game, then set the monitor to 100HZ before you launch the game. Will make things much smoother.

AsrahJust wondering, but wouldn't the Freesync in this monitor (when used with a supported AMD GPU) make it such that we could just set it at 144hz and leave it be? I thought the whole idea with freesync was to remove VYSNC entirely and allow for a variable VSYNC (via FreeSync) for smooth gameplay?

GLoBalReBeLThat is true, but not everyone has AMD GPU's. I personally have two 780 TI Kingpin editions, and have no plans to upgrade. So, my 1440P/144HZ monitor sometimes gets set to 120HZ so SLI doesnt run quite as hot.
I mean, sometimes you might still notice some tearing for a second when the refresh rate is adjusted for a moment of below average frame rate. Shouldnt be too bad, though. If it was THAT bad Free/GSync would have died ages ago.

GLoBalReBeLout the box its at 144hz if using a display port cable( comes with it) once hooked up. Vsync should always be off no matter what game just saying..i have this with a Asus strix 1080 ti and its gaming performance is really good compared to a native 1ms i couldn't feel any response time issues. i have a 27in1440p 1ms 165hz asus pred and it is in the same class performance wise.

DANNYAZLEEVsync should be off if your frame TIME spikes when putting out more frames than the refresh rate, or you cant get enough framerate to match your refresh rate. Pro gamers do it for CS:GO because they easily put out so many frames it already fills each refresh, with no need to wait. You really dont want stuttering in pro FPS play. Consistent low frame times, and consistent frame rate equaling your refresh rate should have 0 tearing.
I have an Asus MG278Q . Theres no tearing at all playing Battlefield 3/4 since I never dip below 144FPS. I always have VSync. Theres no missed refresh ticks with no updated frames in them that way.

AsrahIn you're case vsync will help because at 1440p 144hz a 780ti is not going to perform near the FPS needed to gain what that Monitor is needed. SLI or 4x 780ti's are not near enough for 1440p 144hz. Most games 89% of them don't have sli compatibility as it is also :( sucks i know. NO FPS PRO will have any kind of Sync on ever.

DANNYAZLEEI get 144FPS often enough just turning off Ambient Occlusion or SuperSampling. Look mate, I get the idea behind going along with review sites, because they at least claim to use unbiased methods to gain their data. But uhh, Ive now owned a total of 3 780 TI KPE's. None have gotten less than 144FPS@6048X1080 or 120-144FPS at 1440P if I dont max out the VRAM, with one. Alas, new technologies will definitely limit the throughput, and using SLI just makes them run cooler on average while keeping my FPS target.. Churning out 120-144FPS at 1440P makes a single card peg at 84C. Not having it.
WoW, CS:GO, BF4, FFXIV, GW2, and FireFall (when it was still around) all got (and still get, regarding everything but FireFall) at least 160FPS on average outside of outlier situations like mass open world groupings (FFXIV hunts/WoW world bosses), or open world multi objective events like were in FireFall's Devil's Tusk. Thats at 1440P.
I dont know why people spew stuff from benchmark sites and then swear it's gospel. Its ignorant and ridiculous. You keep throwing money at Nvidia because you think your hardware isn't good enough, without bothering to optimize your setup so none of the components hold others back. Every game I play has SLI capability. Keep pulling nonsense out your butt, it's amusing. I had a good laugh.
Pro FPS players keep VSync off due to tearing. Its not due to hardware limitations. Keep talking out that butt of yours instead of using your brain. Its hilarious actually. Ignorance is amusing.

AsrahThe gsync hack seems to work well for me average frame rate for is 132 frames a minute with no screen tearing with vsync off and butter smooth. Just search for gsync hack.

Sfb.0519That looks to have been a fake news thing. Any chance you can provide a link for us?

GLoBalReBeLThis should get you started the easiest way to know its working by selecting freesync mode on the monitor and you'll just get a black screen and then change it back. Then use the hack and turn freesync on and then it will work with no issues.

GLoBalReBeLCRU is 100% legit. Ive used it for a 1440P monitor that couldnt quite cut it at 120HZ, so i put it at 96HZ (didn't feel like switching between 96HZ for anime, and 119HZ for gaming). It forces the refresh rate to a user specified amount. CRU isn't a GSync hack, though. There's no live varying refresh rate with CRU, which is what GSync does.
