Hello, how are you?
The tittle pretty much sums it up...
Looking for a new monitor.
Can't decide between these two...
I want G-Sync. That is a given...
I just don't know if I want 4K 60hz or 1440p 144hz...
With Gsync, does the 60hz become a limitation? Is the 144hz of the swift a lot better?

What do you think is best for gaming?
Also, where I am from, the Acer is cheaper by a bit of a margin...

Thanks.
Cheers!

If you're looking to pick up another 780 ti, you better act fast.
EVGA and Newegg are both out of stock (likely discontinued).
I'm also looking to upgrade my monitor (http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2468138/handle-asus-pg278q-acer-xb270h.html) and ran into a problem trying to find another GPU.

The only 780ti's I could find were on Amazon used.
Just bought one from a highly reviewed seller for $520 (Classified Version).

Also, depending on what games you're playing, a single 780 ti just might not cut it.
In my thread envy14tpe (thanks again) linked benchmarks for the 780 ti.
A single 780 ti on BF4, brought min/max fps down to 33/45 at 2560x1440 and 23/36 at 3840x2160.
IDK about you, but I couldn't bear to game at such a low fps.

Hello, thank you for your reply.
Single monitor setup.
Currently have a single 780TI OC from Gigabyte. It is for sale. If I can sell it, I will get two 970 and Sli.
If not, I will buy another 780ti and SLi.

Cheers!
