Just spent couple hours fighting the combination in the topic and decided to write a post so maybe someone else doesn't have to.
PG278Q can't do both G-Sync and 3D Vision at the same time so the problem started when I had been using G-Sync, changed to 3D and started up a game. In the game I noticed a lot of ghosting, something that I didn't expect with this display. Back to the control panel and plenty of ghosting again in the 3D test.
After fighting with the 3D test for a while I noticed something else strange, the G-Sync section "Set up G-sync" was missing from the control panel.
Long story short after couple hours of driver reinstalling, rebooting, turning monitor & pc on and off etc. I got the idea to actually pull the plug on the monitor, wait a while and replug. Suddenly driver told me that G-sync monitor was detected, option reappeared and no more ghosting in 3D vision.
It seems at least on this monitor it is possible to crash the G-Sync chip and this messes up both G-sync and 3D vision. The power button alone is not enough to reset the situation. Funny thing is the monitor seems to work just fine otherwise so it is not very obvious.

Exactly that we all know so how about the thing we all wants to hear/know about!
Hows that damn 1440P look and play in 3d ?
Can assure you that writing a post and have tested 3d and not a singe world about the look and feel on this screen seems crazy, so whats the deal ?

I've had a similar problem with the VG248QE monitor with the DIY g-sync kit. On rare occasions, like 1 out of 15 or so, when I wake the computer, the monitor has been lost to the computer. Gone.
If I reboot, it typically comes back and is OK, but I have had it smash 3D enough to where the 3D control panel is missing and had to reinstall drivers.
Reading around, my best guess is that this is because of a DisplayPort F*Up, where pin 20 is getting power from both the monitor and the video card, and they fight. Apparently, proper cables are supposed to drop pin 20, but of course made-in-China means every cable comes out of the same factory exactly the same way, so there are plenty of wrong cables.
It might be worth buzzing out your cable to see if pin-20 is connected. I'd really expect the cable they provide with Swift to be right, but you know.... [s]The cable I got with the DIY kit is wrong- and you'd certainly expect NVidia to know.[/s]
Edit: I was wrong about the DIY cable, it does not have pin 20 connected, so that's not my problem.

I have two weeks until this Monitor will be release in UK. Can someone write short review about it. I am wondering how about the 3D quality on max resolution and how good is new screen matrix when 3D is active (I mean if someone remember problems with it on Asus screens).
When it comes to higher resolution - is the greater field of view noticeable ?

F*CK IT, give me your money guys and I will buy a 3d vision kit and give you all a proper report damnit :)
You 3d lovers deserves it, and I for one can think that 1440P together with the great lovely almost IPS quality colours this monitor have, will look pretty awesome!

There is a lot of Reviews online but none of them focused on 3D Vision experience. Mostly how good G-Sync is and overall quality of picture.
I am getting mine in three weeks so I`ll post some opinion.

There is a problem with synchronisation on one eye when SLI is enabled in Diablo 3. Everything is fine when sli is disabled and doesn`t matter what vsync mode is on.
Is there anybody else with this issue or maybe someone managed with it. Latest driver version.

Try using 340.52, it's the closest to being decent.

Also- what's your take on 3D with this one? Definitely interested in your experience.

Just giving you guys a heads up 3d on the swift is shit. The inversion problem it has is pretty bad in 3d. its like the 3d image on the screen is interlaced and it looks like half the resolution. 3d on a good 1080p monitor is better then the swift. On top of this the rog swift has pretty bad ghosting to in some games. Also for 3d on rog swift if you don't have sli titans I would say don't bother unless your planning to play games on extreme low settings, I run most 3d games on just medium with sli titan blacks. This inversion problem on the rog swift is bad and very wide spread there is a thread about it on the asus rog forums.
Now on the upside the swift with gsync is a pretty awesome experience, gsync done a lot more then I thought it would ever do. Still im not sure if I will end up keeping this monitor the whole inversion thing it has with 3d is kind of a deal breaker.

To bad about the 3d for you 3d gamers!
But as you said the g-sync is fantastic, I may say it's the best thing happen to gaming like forever, once you go g-sync you never look back :)
I've also heard people talk about this "inversion" in Amazon comments. Plenty of other little problems with screen/coating quality and other image blemishes.
It's so strange that they would get 3D so wrong on this screen, my Asus VG278H is perfect, and the Asus brand is usualy a cut above the rest. Maybe they wanted to rush to market as the first G-sync manufacturer...

The problem is on every single Driver version and with every game. I thought that it might be related to different port - this screen is using DisplayPort instead of Dual Link DVI-D.

Yeah I have seen that many have these pixel inversion artifacts, really aweful that these problems exist on such a premium monitor, must be as Zappologist said, they rushed it to the market and even then the screen was supposed to came out in the spring, really crazy.
They should have fixed everything as they had the time damnit :/
And my VG278H was perfect in 3d, to bad shit like this happens, will just get people even more afraid about testing out 3d!

No monitor can do g-sync and 3d at the same time though, just for future reference.
