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.

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

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?
