**Nvidia G-Sync owners thread**

Still on an old va benq 1920x1200 monitor here, va panel. Excellent viewing angles, black depth. But its ancient now. And sli 780's are way too much for the res. Using DSR at 2560x1600, bf4 breezes through it on max settings. So time to up the screen real estate.:)

Wannabe Swift owner here, with a Q for all you existing owners.

Does G-Sync do anything for microstutter caused by SLI configurations?

Yer, it smooths it out and you won't see it. I was running 3 Titans and some games it was fine but others I noticed the dreaded micro-stutter but after running just 2 Titans, all the games I had stutter in are now running sweet. :)

Well tbh, this will indeed be a gift to myself. Not a shared birthday/xmas cheap out one.:D

Tbh, microstutter I haven't seen in sli for a long time. And I've had sli cards as far back as 6800gt's. Bit on them yes, but everything since has been good. When I buy a mobo, it has yo be sli compatible first and foremost. One card looks a bit lonely.:)

Nowt worse than a shared present :( You owe it to yourself to join the G-Sync elitists :D

Yup! I own a couple of 27" DGM IPS monitors and they don't impress me. Would've bought the Rog if I gamed enough to justify it. If the Acer comes in at sensible money i'll have a dabble.

I was seriously close to selling up and buying a HTPC just for the odd internet browsing but after getting the ROG, I have put far more hours into games in 3 months than I probably did in 2 years previous. Games are seriously good fun again.

My main game at the mo is Assassin's Creed Unity and this game is seriously jaw dropping in visual fidelity. The Graphics and gameplay far outweigh the faults and I have spent the most of this week on that alone. It is a tough cookie though and I see frames down to < 40 with a pair of Titans and fully maxed at 1440P but G-Sync seriously keeps it all smooth.

With more competition, prices will drop. Someone said Ngreedia Sync (or summit like that) but with limited panels, the manufacturers charge the premium and it is to be expected really. I would like to see more people trying G-Sync and regardless of what some think, I want people to try Freesync as well, as if that does the same as G-Sync, games move to another level (or did for me at least)

Tbh, we are addicts adducted to the pursuit of more fps, smoother gaming. The company's are our dealers. But for me its a good addiction. I bet less on the horses now.:D

I hear that. I am sure I buy things just for the sake of it and not for the need of it :D
 
Now we/I just need a 120Hz UHD panel with G-Sync and I am sold. I don't care if it is TN or IPS, just get it done.
 
A screen is potentially the longest kept piece of equipment we will buy, so it is great that all angles are getting covered. I have seen many people say "I would buy but I want IPS" or similar, so now there is even more people catered for on the G-Sync panels.

For me it was the 144hz support for 2560x1440, GSYNC was just a bonus.
Click to expand...

I wanted G-Sync more so and going from 4K back down a res, the 144Hz made it a sweet deal. G-Sync has impressed me more than I expected though and glad I paid the premium on the ROG.

Not a single regret here.
 
I promised myself that I wouldn't spend on my computer this year (hardware wise) but a 4K at 100Hz plus and G-Sync will change that.

Well Well Well no one has read the article properly again and jumped to conclusions. Its not GSYNC working on a laptop as it would with a Gsync module and monitor its

You can count me as one of the one's who didn't read the article properly. In fact, I will go so far as to say I didn't really read it at all. I have been using the Swift now for several months and it is the best gaming experience I have ever had. Silky smooth games makes me a happy chappy. even if it worked perfectly on any monitor, I wouldn't care and all the better for those that can't justify/afford to upgrade to a new monitor.

Really looking forward to seeing how Freesync tallies up to G-Sync as well and will be watching that closely.
