And then you'll want to wait 6 months to see what issues fall out. The PG278Q has had some iffy quality control issues and panels going kaput after several months. It seems to be running on the ragged edge.

And then there's Asus's well known RMA "experience."

I'd love for the upcoming PG279Q to be perfect but I have many reservations.

So what good choice is there for G-Sync monitors? Acer seems to have an even worse reputation which is why I was waiting for the Asus IPS versions.

That's the problem right now with G-sync. It's either Asus or Acer and they're both of questionable quality. I've spent a fair amount of time over the past few days reading the two or three big threads on Hardocp on these monitors and it's pretty depressing.

My Dell's have been flawless for the 7-8 or so years I've owned the mismatched pair of 22" and 24" monitors. These new panels coming out just seem to be pushed too far for performance instead of reliability.

Nobody else is in the G-sync game really. I'm hoping nVidia adopts FreeSync (despite the downsides people mention) and we see wider spread of frame matching with other manufacturers.

I hope so as well. FreeSync does seem to be more widely available from higher quality monitor manufacturers.

1600 x 900 (most of the time) pleb here. Have a second 1600 x 900 for monitoring my streams, and I do have a 1080p HDTV that I do use on occasion (movie streaming, playing a game with controller), but I prefer the desk setup for most gaming. Been thinking of moving up to a 1080p+ monitor to catch up with the rest of the world but don't have the disposable income right now to do it.
