Unless you want to do some cutting edge stuff with it. We're begging nVidia to fix their DPMS implementation over DisplayPort for years now.
Oh, I forgot that nVidia drivers do not make enabling VSync easy for video/compositing overlays for ~6 years? I have to disable all optimizations and lose 50% performance to enable VSync in a compositing or video layer.
Yes, most of it works but some annoying parts do not work, and nVidia doesn't make anything easier.
This is on a GTX680 card. It was king of the hill when I first bought it.
