Gaming-inspired aesthetics
Integrated ASUS Aura Sync lighting technology simplifies the process of connecting ROG Strix XG32VQ or XG35VQ to other Aura-enabled components and peripherals, and also makes it easier to synchronize the lights with music or game sound effects. Synchronization is now easily achieved by installing the Aura Sync software on a laptop or desktop.
Additionally, the exclusive Light Signature projection kit allows for the creation and customization of light-projection effects. It includes two ROG logo covers and one blank cover for creating customized light projections that show each gamer’s unique style.
Seamless gameplay
ROG Strix XG35VQ has a 100Hz refresh rate to give the player the upper hand in first-person-shooters, racers, real-time strategy, role-playing and sports titles. And for fast-paced games played at the highest visual settings, ROG Strix XG32VQ has an astounding 144Hz refresh rate, ensuring that everything looks buttery smooth and completely lag-free.
Both models feature Adaptive-Sync (FreeSync™) technology that minimizes screen tearing, choppy frame rates, display stutter and input lag. Additionally, ROG Strix XG35VQ features exclusive ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur technology makes objects in motion look sharper, delivering more fluid and responsive gameplay.
Gamer-centric enhancements
ROG Strix XG32VQ and XG35VQ feature ASUS-exclusive game-enhancing features developed with input from professional gamers. The GamePlus hotkey provides instant access to different crosshair options, an onscreen timer, a frames-per-second counter, and a display alignment feature. GameVisual provides up to seven preset display modes to optimize visuals for different types of games. The DisplayWidget utility software lets users easily and quickly tweak settings or configure ASUS GameVisual, App Sync™ and blue light filters.
The price is £549, 629 Euro and 599 USD.

I'm not a fan at all of curved displays with 16:9 aspect ratio... also, the size is a bit too big too for that resolution. 1440p is best at 27", or maybe 30 (though I believe only 1600p displays came with this size).

Na, Gsync isnt needed at 144hz or above. I've had gsync on my previous display, now i have 144hz freesync with a gtx1070, i see no difference in tearing at all, as in i dont see the tearing at 144hz. The bonus of not having Gsync, less cost, better image quality on desktop(no scanlines) and no weird blinking of buttons and stuff in games.
If you ask me, gsync is obsolete, unless you use displays at 100hz or below i dont see the idea of sync tech like freesync or gsync.
At 144 and above, no sync tech please.

My Dell U2711 is 2560 x 1440 60Hz and 7 years old. Dell also sold a U3011 which was the 30" version which was 2560 x 1600. I'm not seeing any exciting progress with the NVidia card & monitor scenario.
