I love my high end 1440p165hz IPs G-Sync monitor.
What does that have to do with anything? Pretty much all monitors also support FreeSync which works just as well.
I have a g-sync monitor. It supports g-sync. It is very nice, but unfortunately it does NOT support freesync.
From what I can find, even though a lot of FreeSync monitors support at least partially G-Sync, the opposite seems rather rare, since G-Sync is fully proprietary and hardware-based. I've found a couple more modern monitors that officially support both but they seem to be the exception rather than the norm.
