Just a word of warning to anyone thinking about buying a G-Sync compatible monitor, they are only compatible with 10 series and later Nvidia GPU's.
I replaced my Dell G-Sync monitor with an Asus VG27A that will not work with my Titan X (Maxwell) GPU.
Would have been nice to know this prior to purchasing the monitor, there is very little information regarding this unless you specifically go looking for it so thought i would post here for others so they don't fall into the same trap i did.
 
As stated in my post, it’s a titan X many people like myself will assume that G-Sync compatible means exactly that.
Nothing in the specs of the monitor tell you it only works with a 10 series card, it’s only when it didn’t work and I started digging did I find out.
If it’s well known should it not be published on the sales pages or retailers to warn customers?
That is the purpose of my post
 
Well it’s obvious the point of this post has been completely missed, let’s hope those than need it see it and everyone else will pipe up with an opinion. If it’s that well known it’s a shame customer services didn’t know when I contacted them to ask what gives.
