What about if you clone your screen to show on your G-Sync monitor and another non-G-Sync display at the same time? How does it work?

I'm interested in "better than 60Hz" displays with a 21:9 aspect ratio. To date I don't know of any. Have you found any like that?
LG has a couple 2560x1080 panels coming out with freesync and a max refresh of 75hz.

Saw that after I posted, but I think its a poor candidate for a monitor ...

I have a 980 and the Asus PG278Q G-Sync monitor. I have to lower my resolution to 1080p to clone my display over to the Avermedia card I have and G-Sync seems to work with cloning. At least my FPS in Battlefield 4 stays ~144, as it does without cloning the display and the game still feels smooth ...

Hey Boildown, have you gotten anywhere with a G-Sync display and the Datapath DVI-DL?

I've yet to buy a G-Sync display because to my knowledge the drivers still won't let you clone a screen while the main screen is in G-Sync mode. I pinged Manuel_G on Twitter and he said he would check again, but ...

Thanks!

Looks like its time to bump this thread. We've had 7 months of driver updates since my OP, and now the monitor I'd like to buy has been released.

Is it yet possible to clone the G-Synced DisplayPort to the Dual-link DVI port for my capture card? (I upgraded to a Datapath DVI-DL version a while ago ...

I have checked with our product manager and unfortunately this feature (Clone mode with G-Sync display) is still too far off for us to comment on.

Thanks for the follow-up. This is a feature I'd like, it may well be a pre-requisite to me buying in to using G-Sync (figuratively and literally ...

What we really need are DisplayPort 1.2 video capture cards that are compatible with G-Sync. Or just Displayport video capture devices in general, they essentially don't exist at the moment (the ones that do exist actually do a DVI or HDMI conversion).

As for lan broadcasting with a second computer ...

It's pretty sad that NVENC lacks even basic features of x264. Perhaps nVidia can be persuaded to upgrade the hardware encoder in future cards so it will be a more viable alternative to software encoders.
I've recently learned that this is par for the course for hardware encoders. I've resolved to ...
