So I have a Freesync monitor that is Gsync compatible should I be using HDMI or should I be using the Displayport or does it work with both connectors?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Gsync compatible only works over DisplayPort. You also need a fairly new GTX card (I think 10-series or above).

Your info is outdated. Nvidia has enabled Freesync (aka "Gsync compatible") over HDMI via new drivers since late 2019.

I can confirm that my Samsung C32HG70 Freesync 2 monitor works with GSync via both Displayport and HDMI using my RTX 2080, although in the case of my monitor it caps out at 120hz over HDMI so Displayport at 144Hz is still preferable.
