i've just been reminded that nvidia freesync only works with 1000/2000 series gpus, just checking that you have one of those?

Yes, 1070 Ti. I've looked online and can't find any reason why the option for "set up G-sync" doesn't exist in my nvidia control panel. It's correctly detecting the monitor. It has a different model name (Q3279WG5B), but that's normal.

If you win the lottery I will envy you! Though if you don't you have potentially two more attempts! ;)

@Angilion G-Sync works on all three DP ports on my card, so I doubt it is that. I am super perplexed as to why it isn't showing for you though! The AOC AGON I had, had no options for Freesync within it's menus, and it showed up in the Nvidia control panel.

I just tried all 3 DP ports on my card and no change.

I'm also perplexed. Next step is to use DDU to remove the driver entirely and do a clean install, but I see no reason why that would work either given that absolutely nobody else is reporting the same problem and as yet I don't care enough to do it. Partly because I CBA moving my desktop icons around again and partly because I've moved into the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" frame of mind. Maybe a clean install would break something else. I don't know of reason why it should...but I don't know of any reason why the g-sync setup menu isn't appearing in my nvidia control panel and that's happening.

Very first impressions (literaly just hoocked it up) is that it's way lighter than I was expecting and also thinner around the bezzel! Nice.
Size seems perfect for me also (not to big not to small).
Font/text on pc very easy to read/crisp and looks like it's been automatically set to 200%.
I will have to spend a little time getting to know her...
Any advice on setup?
Should I let Nvidea take control of graphic properties or go with what the game wants (option in nvidea graphic settings)?

oh, and I just broke my DP connection cherry =)

set the text at 100%. DPI of 31.5" 1440p is the same as 24" 1080p. you don't need 200% unless you're blind ofc

make sure freesync is on, and vsync is on fast sync (can find vsync settings in 3d settings)
