I heard this on a video, not entirely sure it's true or if it works to good effect, so I hope somebody with a G-Sync screen can answer/advise.

Apparently if you drop below 60 FPS on a G-Sync screen then it doesn't look as laggy and the movement feels more fluid than on a non G-Sync screen?

G-Sync matches the refresh rate to the fps, that's why it's smoother even at frame drops. I watched a review from JayZTwoCents (or however his channel name is 'spelt') on YouTube and he couldn't believe he hadn't moved to it before. His rig is GTX 780 three-way SLI'd though so his can definitely handle it (3 of them I think he actually tests). Just read and look at reviews, they should give you a better grasp, providing your rig can keep up well too.

Yes, Gsync is awesome sauce.

You could just use your previous thread mate

If the requirements are what you're after, go for it!
