The point of G-Sync is fluid motion.  Better monitor still have lock refresh rate. IPS panel still stuck at 60hz, there are some can be overclock.  120hz monitor still fixed refresh rate, but minimize the tearing effect. 

We pay graphic card more than USD100 to have fluid motion, not high FPS alone.  Having high FPS does not really translate fluid motion in these modern day because the bottleneck is current monitor technology.  Unlike old school days where 20-30 fps make big difference to give the fluid motion impression. GPU during those days still primitive and strugle to give at least 30fps at 800x600. Dynamic refresh rate is the future of gaming, and motion pictures.

Nvidia demos at relatively 60fps.  The benefit of g-sync is to get match fps with refresh rate. The fluid motion is when the fps is higher than 60 and the refresh rate can match it.

I would rather spent moneys more on monitor that gives the feature, rather than focusing on upgrading gpu. This is long waited technology. Everyone is busy with 3d, and 4k.. but not variable refresh rate.

Refresh rate issue is long due problem since the introduction of motion pictures.

What is your fluid motion by your definitions?

Say, for example, that part of the image contains what should have been displayed at the 15 second mark and the other part consists of what should have been displayed at the 16 second mark. In the time between those images, your view may have veered slightly to the right, so part of the image will look slightly further to the right while the other part is still straight on. The image is therefore misaligned at parts, resulting in the tearing effect.

Another way to put this is to say the graphics card and monitor have gone out of sync: the graphics card is kicking out frames faster than the monitor can display them. This is where VSync enters the picture. VSync literally stands for "Vertical Synchronization." Its job is to make sure the images vertically align, and it does this by making the graphics card a slave to the monitor.

G-SYNC allows the refresh rate to be variable in the monitor. That means if your GPU is drawing 50FPS, your monitor will refresh at 50hz, eliminating the possibility that a frame will come in before the monitor is done refreshing.

Smoothness/fluid motion is visible even at lower 60fps with g-sync.  Just like the old days gaming on crt low res with high refresh rate, even less than 60fps we can perceive the fluidness.

U can capped the frame to 30, 48, 50, 60, 72, 75 depends on ur monitor... and also how powerful ur card...
With this u can reduce the micro-stuter n reduce the screen tearing since the frame rate variance is minimal
For amd radeonpro.. nvidia nvidia inspector... u should play with these two great tweak apps

when v-sync on it will introduce mouse lag too

recommend me a 1k watt psu  thxs for d site.

lowest = leadtek!

wait.. leadtek got do amd?

Well, Looks like 780Ti's price already revealed... 650USD!!!
http://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-gtx-780...-radeon-r9-290/

R9-290X "should be" arround 599-649USD.

Hard to say... I feel like the NV & AMD going to "price fixing"... 

G-sync(sound gay sync)... no thank you i prefer V-sync... lol 

How come NDA lifted but no videos about it?

wah asus sell 290x at rm2799? while at US sapphire r9 290x USD 549 only.. 290x on par with titan and smoke gtx780.. interesting.. but everyone say it is hot and noisy.

- Unless you do gaming at reso above 25x16, R9-290x is overkill.

- I wish for a more linear price point for this card.

Haha.. newegg start selling d... All reference cooler and start from USD550 to USD580.
