Question regarding G-Sync

Hi all,

Just received and set up an ASUS PG279Q and must say, I love it!

I'm wondering about G-Sync though. For example, on Destiny 2 on the highest settings I'll get between 80-100FPS outdoors and 120+ indoors. Because my monitor is capable of 144hz would I benefit from reducing the settings to get a higher framerate, or does having G-Sync mean this would be pointless?

Thanks,
Paul

Ok sweet, thanks guys! Must say, I'm so impressed with how much smoother games feel!

no the monitor will drop refresh to whatever the GPU is outputting, so why set it lower detail just to get 144fps?

To get the increased frames. I didn't know if the game would run even more smooth or look smoother if I was hitting a constant 144fps instead of the framerate constantly changing.

Is it worth overclocking the monitor to 165hz?
