NV lost their bet on Gsync, it's just not apparant yet. Intel announced they're adopting the tech behind Freesync for their own IGPs. Gsync won't hold up against Intel Kabylake's IGP + AMDs APUs and GPUs.

If the trend continues of Intel adopting AMD's open standard / libre alternatives to NV's tech, I'm not sure how NV can seriously stand against AMD + Intel using the same solutions. Intel IGPs are only going to get better and better and be more relevant over time, Broadwell Iris Pro was already impressive and Kabylake intends to take that to the next level.
