Why does 60hz 60fps look so bad on a 144hz monitor

[killastrra]

It does not look the same as when I had a 60hz monitor at all. It feels like 30fps. Bought a PG279Q a week ago using at 144hz. Went to 60hz to test it out and it feels so so bad. making me worried for if a game drops to 60fps it will look that bad. any help?

Well, if you played at 144hz for some time going to 60 FPS will seem horrific and like you said, barely playable.

If you don't mind shelling out money for a GSYNC/Freesync monitor, this wouldn't be a problem. I have been playing on a 144 Hz monitor for at least a year and a half now and you're right, playing games at 60 FPS or below it's just very bad and it'll give you headaches. Until I got myself a GSYNC monitor. It fixed everything and all the games that I play are just buttery smooth, no matter the FPS lol.

his PG279Q is a Gsync monitor. he must probably doesn't know how to set it up properly or is using ULMB instead of Gsync.

btw OP you have multiple posts (I've seen 3 so far today) asking questions about the same monitor. please consolidate all of them on one post!!!
