I got a super good deal on the XB321HK (paid only 1200 Canadian for it through amazon warehouse deals and can't find a single thing wrong with it) , this is a 32 inch 4K monitor with Gsync.
So far the feature has been neat but it's also caused some issues related to my chosen graphics solution - that is - 1070X2 SLI. This is more than enough to drive pretty much anything at 4K/60fps but I'm finding when I leave gsync on I get all sorts of anomalous issues , namely about half the games I play will essentially disable the second card while gsync is active. I'm assuming this is an Nvidia driver issue.
I can admit though, playing a game at 40 fps looks a helluva lot smoother with gsync enabled than I recall it looking on past monitors , where you'd get constant screen tears and visible frame rate fluctuations.
I keep hearing horror stories about the newer nvidia drivers breaking various things so I haven't updated in a couple months but does anyone else have similar issues ?

I'm quite pleased with mine to be honest , I'm not that interested in gaming beyond 60hz and I like the 16:9 form factor more than the ultra wide , if you're worried because of this issue I have , well it seems it's a general Gsync / SLI problem more than a monitor issue and it only effects some games. If you aren't doing SLI , it works fine. Even outside of that, disabling gsync and turning vsync on in game solves the problem anyway.
