NVIDIA Demos Zero Latency Display Running at 1700Hz
Nvidia is demonstrating a display that holds a true refresh-rate of 1700Hz. It is a prototype called zero latency display and it can display imagery stable even when shaking the screen, handy for VR.
During its GTX 2016 event demoed the setup on which the Nvidia logo and name where shown, during that process the display was heavily vibrating and moving over a rails system on which it was mounted. The image however stayed stable in the center.
According to vice-president of Nvidia graphics research, David Luebke this was possible due to the high refresh rate which is roughly 20x higher opposed to what current VR goggles are using. At 90Hz each 11ms an images is displayed, at 1700 Hz that's 0.58 millisecond. 90Hz is more than sufficient for a comfortable VR experience, NVIDIA Vice President of Research David Luebke says that ever higher refresh rates could improve the VR experience by further reducing latency.

my Panasonic TV says Smooth motion by 1200Hz Backlight Scanning

True, if the gpu could actually output that refresh-rate, then, actual 1700hz would be possible. Considering the purpose of G-sync, though, which is to output non-vsync without tearing it makes more sense that this is like those Panasonic TV's that say they output 600hz to stabilize image quality.

This is not just zero latency (0.58ms) between frame ready to be displayed and nearest refresh.
This display is also practically zero latency between frame sent and being fully displayed. Which is something entirely different than just 1700Hz display.
And which is demonstrated by image staying fixed to our eyes - a feat that high refresh alone would not be able to achieve, because it also also needs infinitesimal input latency.
Elimination of all kinds Vsync worries is just a nice bonus.
And no you don't need 1700 fps to experience benefits of 1700Hz display
Perfect display, too bad I don't see this coming in the near future.
And certainty not at popular prices
Sadly not many people realize this.
I remember also seeing low fps image captures some time ago that showed that 1000 Hz polling on a mouse also decreases tearing (albeit marginally) due to a slightly smoother camera motion updates ingame.
There's so many latencies going on in tech that it's always good news when they succeed at reducing them.

will this be like infamous OLED tech ?? which was announce almost decade ago and still isnt widely available, not sure I want to know what the price might be seeing what is charged for gsync

I still remember how bad coil whine was on 8800gtx when you launched Crysis and had to watch the stupid splash screens

Knowing Nvidia, I'm wondering how much of a premium we will need to pay for this.

@Denial
+1
and the same with vram bandwidth, were everyone was complaining about bus, then the info about doubling GDDR5 bandwidth and so on.
guess we will hear this until the cards are released/tested..

It's not about games run at 1700 fps. It's the monitor's refresh rate.
Developing a 1.7 kHz display just for a PR stunt? Too much effort don't you think?
Wow but reaching 60 fps seems to be a struggle nowadays on high resolutions unless it's Quake 3 arena running at 1700fps 
. Monitor technology is great but we need more gpu power first over crazy refresh rates.

PR stunt to distract from the fact that Pascal's launch isn't going to be as smooth / early as the last generations due to various factors (dx12, HBM / GDDR5X, rumored missing chips themselves etc.)

That you already have. Because 90% of gamers have 1080p screen or one with lower resolution. And your GPU/CPU is kind of overkill. Because those with few exceptions are locked to 60Hz.
