I have a 144hz 1440p monitor, I have been having screen tearing when I dip below 144fps and that was the effect of not having g sync or anything like that avaliable. I heard that Nvidia is releasing G sync to current non g sync monitors in a driver update. My display is freesync. Am I finally going to be able to play 144hz with no screen tearing? Will the upgrade be avaliable for my monitor? Why don't I get screen tearing when I go above 144fps? I know that's good but why?
 
Solution
Looks like the only AOC monitor confirmed is the AG241QG4

While I can't find a product page for it, the images I find for it would indicate it's the same (regional variant, maybe?) as the AG241QX.

I would assume you'd have a pretty good chance of being at least 'mostly' compatible.
