Maybe strobing can be worked into IPS panels. If they can shutoff the pixel and then turn it back on, it'll never have to go through slow GTG transitions. But then non-strobed modes would still look worse (on G-Sync, which is amazing) than TN panels.

But for now, I gave up waiting on IPS. The Swift, as an 8-bit panel, has very comparable colors side-by-side my Dell U2713HM. But, it has some bad AG coating that makes it somewhat painful for desktop use (has this grain texture where as the Dell is perfect). For gaming, the Swift is just hands down leagues ahead of my Dell. And viewing angle issue are really overblown with TN in general these days.

Not a bad thought but strobing isn't for everyone and adds a little input latency which contradicts some of the reason to use it in the first place. If I want CRT smoothness I want CRT like responsiveness to go with it. As a gamer I would prefer G/F-Sync for slower paced games and just enable 144Hz / non vsync for anything remotely competitive. I don't see IPS displays working well in this scenario.

I'm tempted to buy the Swift for the reasons you state but I'm still concerned over the viewing angles. I need to see one in person before deciding if it's not that bad.
