Have you been able to dig up any info? The lack of solid 3d vision testing these days is disappointing. I used to love 3d vision blog reviewsTBH, I just don't know much about the quality of 3dvision with the G-sync monitors -- information is tough to find. On the surface, I like the Asus Swift as a nice gaming monitor, lots of flexibility and gaming features --but 3dvision info is spotty.
Don't tftcentral do Some sort of 3D review with their monitors? Or are they too vague?
asus said:The ROG SWIFT PG278Q is compatible with the NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ 1 and 2 kits* to support up to three WQHD displays for immersive multi-display 3D gaming experience. ROG SWIFT provides the finest 3D gaming and content viewing experience and thanks to the ever-growing library of over 700 3D Vision™ ready game titles, as well as 3D Blu-ray movies and YouTube 3D Playback support. See everything in a new dimension with the ROG SWIFT.
3D: Does PG278Q have LightBoost?
Yes it does have LightBoost – if you plug in the 3D Vision IR emitter the Nvidia drivers will detect the PG278Q and offer the function. When the 3D is enabled the monitor LED turns green.
The highest 3D mode supported is 120Hz to match the active display glasses
Asus spokesperson JJ said:The SWIFT will offer better quality than our current VG series monitors.
vulcan78 said:ROG Swift here and I have been using 3D Vision for about 2 weeks now and have zero issues with inversion striping, vertical or horizontal. Yes there is matte related crystalization, what some owners refer to as a kind of grit on the screen, yes the viewing angles are abysmal compared to IPS but as far as Nvidia 3D vision goes, IT ROCKS. I am absolutely loving it, prefer it over G-Sync.
Games tried so far in 3D vision with this monitor:
AC4: Black Flag
Crysis 3
Batman: AC
It could be the case that the purported issue of inversion striping is unit specific, as many, many have received units that have had issues. My Swift has no dead pixels and 3D Vision looks flawless, Light Boost 2 is also awesome.
So unless youve actually seen these issues yourselves and have inspected one or more other ROG Swift's to confirm the issue isn't unit specific please refrain from saying 3D Vision on the Swift is poor, because it absolutely isn't.

It was a bit of a shame to see inversion artifacts, which were much more noticeable than in normal 2D
That Swift monitor is enticing, G-sync, 144hz, 1ms, 2560 x 1440 for smooth 2d gaming, and GPU's offer DSR if one desires higher rez -- thin bezels for 2d and 3d surround flexibility -- 3dvision, LightBoost gaming at 2560 x 1440.
