Philips 272G5DYEB 27-Inch G-SYNC Monitor
Announced back in january, soon in stores will be the 27-inch Philips 272G5DYEB display with NVIDIA G-SYNC. With a refresh rate of 144 Hz, this display updates the screen content nearly two and a half times more often than a standard monitor.
By letting the GPU control the refresh, it delivers ultra-smooth image motion that includes the critical images that are otherwise missing on displays with standard refresh rates. So players can target objects more accurately - and level up their game.
NVIDIA G-SYNC - groundbreaking display technology
One drawback of gaming with a standard monitor, at least for serious gamers, is the lower refresh rate, which can make objects appear to jump suddenly from one spot to another on the display. The NVIDIA G-SYNC chipset is designed for gamers who are looking for a display that can game just as hard and fast as they can. The Philips 272G5DYEB NVIDIA G-SYNC monitor, with its advanced graphics support, is more than a match for the sharp, fast responses of experienced gamers. It redraws the screen image up to 144 times per second, making objects less likely to jump around and easier to target accurately.
The revolutionary performance of G-SYNC is achieved by synchronizing the display refresh rates to the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) of the computer's graphics card, essentially giving the GPU control over the timing of display updates. The monitor refresh rate constantly adapts to the frame rate which is communicated by the GPU. This eliminates the screen tearing and stuttering that detract from a truly immersive gaming experience. It also significantly reduces input lag. As a result, scenes appear instantly, objects are rendered with dazzling sharpness and clarity, and gameplay becomes super smooth throughout. In short, it gives serious gamers a seriously competitive edge.
With a spacious 27-inch screen, a response time of 1 ms GTG and Full HD support, gamers can also expect dazzling viewing from the new display, with sharp, brilliant colours and superior image reproduction.
Connectivity with blazing speed
With such a powerful and responsive kit as the Philips 272G5DYEB display with NVIDIA G-SYNC, the connection between PC and display has to measure up. The new gaming display ensures that the PC connection will never be a performance choke point. With excellent performance and zero latency, DisplayPort technology offers gamers the high-speed imaging and refresh rates to match the singular performance of the G-SYNC display. It delivers better performance than the DVI standard, supporting cables of up to 15 meters in length and data transfer rates of 21.6 Gbps. The USB 3.0 ports ensure users benefit from fast USB transfer - around 10 times speedier than the USB 2.0 standard. These connectivity choices make the new Philips display a superb choice not only for gaming and movies, but also for general office and home use.
The new Philips 272G5DYEB display with NVIDIA G-SYNC will be available end of October 2014 at a suggested retail price of $699/€699/£499.

Im waiting on DisplayPort 1.2a standard. Adaptive-Sync and the forthcoming DisplayPort 1.3 standard port before I upgrade my monitor.
I want to compare between the 2 types and make my choice between gsync and freesync and then I will make the correct choice without regret.

Bleh another 144Hz Gsync.
Show me a 60Hz 1080p IPS with Gsync/Freesync and I'll be interested.
Stop being greedy keeping frame sync technology exclusive to high end monitors. Make it cost effective to adopt already.

For a 27" display, I require greater than 1080P. That's fine for a television where I sit four metres away from it. It's not sufficient on a screen of that size when it's 50cm away from my face. If I pay for a 27" screen, it's because I want to make use of the real estate. I can't make full use of it if the resolution is still that of a smaller screen. Even my 24" is 1920x1200 and I certainly don't intend to downgrade!
Other features may be nice, but they are the things I would use to decide between monitors once I'd picked size and resolution, not before.

I 100% agree !... Give me IPS G-SYNC and you will have my money ! Even 60Hz, I don't care...
Let's be realistic, I have a GTX780ti, I play most of the new AAA games at 1080p with everything at ULTRA (SGSSAA for DX9, DSR now for DX11), which means I have from something like 40fps to 70fps max... So, 60Hz G-SYNC is far more "logical" for me than 144Hz G-SYNC...
I am a gamer and I hate TN, why play a game with amazing graphics if you have have a monitor with dark gray instead of true black, with eye-burning white,... I sent back my new AOC G-Sync monitor because it was so terrible compared to my 5 years old DELL IPS... Just give me IPS G-Sync damn !!

Well, not bad, yet it doesn't have 1440p like I hoped, to see some competition for the Asus Swift. Also, for that price, spending 100€ more to get 1440p isn't such a bad deal anymore, at least imho.
