But like to even get G sync you have to drop nearly half a grand while Freesync is available on $200 monitors

The only reason for me to even consider G Sync at that price difference is that I already have a Nvidia card

Lie. anyway, it just costs more because there's a dedicated hardware module and each monitor can't just be made from already manufactured parts by the manufacturer. This drives up costs. This is why most gaming monitors are Freesync and less and less G-sync models are coming out.

Freesync's bad rep came almost entirely from an article and video review by the very biased PC Perspective where they blamed ghosting on Freesync when it was a panel issue just like all ghosting on all monitors. They argued in the comments with people correcting them and this went unaddressed for years until they got called out by some YouTuber earlier this year.
