I’m looking for Gsync / Freesync to get rid of screen tearing.

Gsync is Nvidia and Freesync AMD, right?

What exactly do I need to use Gsync/Freesync? I guess Monitor + GPU both have to be compatible.

Are there any downsides when using this on Linux?

    You can also get rid of screen tearing by using vsync, at the cost of some latency

    Anyway, to have a tear-free experience without significant latency, you’d need a VRR compatible GPU, which basically means every GPU made in the last 10 years, and then a VRR capable monitor, so just make sure the description says that it supports FreeSync
