So I have spent a couple of days with the monitor now and have got to the bottom of the issues I was having. Anyone getting one of these monitors new you need to heed the following:
1) If you are coming from 1080p you'll be changing settings, restart the game after you do it! The Nvidia gsync drivers don't seem to like changes in resolution, anything that causes the monitor to reset its mode can cause issues. In game it'll show stutter or worse performance, something a game restart will solve.
2) Almost all games are better with vsync in the options set to off. Some games seem to do frame capping when vsync is on, setting to 60hz usually and you want to avoid that. I have also found in Arma 3 it causes some input lag which isn't there with vsync off. But just like (1) changing and then using it straight away sometimes doesn't turn out so good. I blame the drivers, bad Nvidia hasn't tested that scenario and it shows.
3) Reinstall your Nvidia drivers after the install of the monitor. For whatever reason my games did not perform right until the driver was reinstalled. Metro last light was the first example but the Crew beta also suffered.
Mine is coming Saturday, thanks for the information!
