Hello!

I’m looking for a budget monitor for 1440p gaming, as I recently built a new PC with a 4070 Ti Super and I am pretty much too broke to get something over $180-$200. I found this TUF Gaming VG27AQA1A monitor, which says that has FreeSync Premium technology. But I was wondering if it is also compatible with G-Sync.

I’ve done some research on this, and I saw that nowadays FreeSync/G-Sync is just marketing slang and that they should both be compatible, but I don’t know if this also applies to older monitors, or just newer ones. The model in particular also isn’t on NVIDIA’s official G-Sync compatibility list, so I wanna make sure. Sorry if my question is stupid!
