Given that G-Sync modules replace the scalers there is some motivation on the scaler vendors side.
LOL, right, scaler vendors are feeling threatened by a very niche technology such as G-Sync. Nice way to spin it
As noted above, "Nvidia's intent in building the G-Sync module was to enable this capability and thus to nudge the industry in the right direction [in creating a scaler ASIC with variable refresh capability]". G-Sync is a short-term solution for desktop monitors, NVIDIA knows that, but it is certainly much better than the alternative which is currently "nothing" on the desktop.
On a side note, it is absolutely incredible that it took something like G-Sync to actually get the industry moving in the right direction, considering that these ideas have been talked about and floating around for so many years now.
