The GN246HL is one of the worst 144 Hz monitors on the market, even for the price. The G2460PF is a much better monitor for the same cost.

Hey Glen. Is there a Nvidia (G-Sync) version of that? Getting a GTX 1080

Yes, that's quite a bit more expensive. Is there a non free-sync/g-sync version for a cheaper price and if not can the freesync monitor be used with Nvidia (No dynamic refresh rate though, I think)?

I bought myself a MSI G24C Gaming monitor. 144hz 1080p. It's been a really good display.

Right now Newegg has it on for $209.

Is that due to the lack of DP connections or something else? Reviews are decent for it but yes at the same price the G2460PF is better.

Doesn't have DP input, the HDMI input is limited to 60 Hz, uses PWM brightness control, and has inverse ghosting from excessive overdrive which cannot be turned off. G2460PF eliminates all of those problems, plus has FreeSync. It just doesn't make any sense to recommend the GN246HL in this day and age, it should have been discontinued years ago.

G2460PF isn't perfect either, sometimes it flickers if you use 144 Hz and FreeSync at the same time (fixed if you turn FreeSync off) but even if you consider it a non-FreeSync monitor, it's still way better than the GN246HL for the price.
