How good is 75hz refresh rate for gaming especially competitively compared to 60hz?

 

 

No difference.

You do see a difference between 60 hz and everything above 100-120 hz. I have a 144 hz screen (not that my rig can runf GTAV at 144hz) and there definitely is a difference in less demanding games (i.e. CSGO or older games like Skyrim, SWAT 4... which all run on 144 hz) but I don't think you would see much of a difference between 60 hz and 75 hz.

It would depend on what monitor you have to an extent, as to how it reacts to the higher refresh rate. My Samsung SA300 for example (1080p, 1ms, 60Hz) put on a custom resolution at 75Hz (still a 1080p resolution, just higher refresh rate) is much nicer to look at than when it is on its standard 60Hz. Everything appears sharper, colours are a lot more vivid. And yes, this is without adjusting any other settings in the nVidia control panel.

 

That being said, you might not get the same experience. The differences you get (if any) are rather small in comparison to the difference between 60Hz and 144Hz as mentioned by Vaskulis.

how about with freesync?

No idea, I can only talk from experience and my experience is I haven't ever owned an AMD product or a freesync/g-sync enabled monitor.
