If you don't fancy that can someone answer me one very simple question.

Do all monitors that are 120 hz or above i.e. 144hz support 3d if you buy the nvida 3d vision glasses or some form of 3d glasses and emitter.

I'm pretty sure they do but wanted to check.

No, refresh rate alone isn't 3D defining, its an additional feature. 120Hz 3D is ideal for 60Hz playback in each eye instead of 30 x2 (60Hz monitor) etc

Look at these 3D ready monitor for Nvidia Vision: http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-displays.html

Ok thanks for your reply but what about this

http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/3D-Vision-Discover-faq.html

Q: Do I need a special 120Hz display or 3D Ready display to use 3D Vision Discover?
A: No. 3D Vision Discover glasses works with any standard desktop display. Actual 3D acuity will vary depending on the display used.

Theres two different Nvidia Visions technologies. 3D Vision Discover which your link is about (The earlier Nvidia 3D Vision) then theres 3D Vision 2 which requires 120Hz and Lightboost which the list of monitors i linked will have.

Ok so with that in mind, can I use the earlier 3d vision or is that not supported anymore or what?

Nvidia 3D Discover uses the red/blue glasses and will work on any monitor as the display changes in the youtube vid below.

Vision 2 uses active shutter glasses that syncs with the monitor.

With either 3D tech, higher Hz will be better to avoid nausea.

If you want wall hacks go for the latter 😀

Thanks very much for your response.

You've been extremely helpful. Are you able to reply on my other thread about choosing between the aoc / xl2430t?

I'd really appreciate it!

Either of those two will support Vision discover, if you're going for Vision 2, pick from the list i posted.
