by Ryan-Shrout (Aug, 2014)The ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q 27-in WQHD display with a 144 Hz refresh rate is truly an awesome monitor.
by Ryan-Shrout (Aug, 2014)The PLS panel is definitely of better quality than the TN designs, even these slightly better than normal TN screens on the ROG Swift.

Slow rotations and pans didn’t cause any of the typical “crawling” effect on the screen, and targeting on enemies, even at low frame rates, was easy to do.
Any movement that was tracking on the screen would suddenly appear to stop – and then would quickly “jump” to the next location faster than your mind thought it should.

What would help out gaming@2560x1440 the most from these options: get a good closed loop water cooler and OC the CPU to ~4GHZ and a single hd7970/gtx-680 or save the money from the water cooler leaving cpu @ stock, 2x hd7950's / 2x gtx-670.
I currently have an i7 920 @ stock and tri-sli GTX-280.
