Screen tear monitor questions

[fasthandfist]

So I have a i7 6700k and a 980ti with 16 gigs of RAM but im suffering from screen tear when playing games like pubg, my question is should I just get a 120-144 hz monitor or do I really need to upgrade to a gsync monitor

First try turning on adaptive vsync in Nvidia control panel.

If that is not acceptable, then yes - upgrade to 120/144/165Hz monitor.
That would improve situation considerably (if your current monitor supports only 60Hz).
