I'm looking at buying a 3D display of some sort. I've narrowed the options down to a Nvidia 3D Vision 2 Lightboost LCD or a passive FPR LCD with polarized glasses. I'm familiar with all of the technical pro's and con's of the two but nothing means as much to me as the comfort of the glasses. Do any of you wear prescription glasses and use the Nvidia 3D Vision 2 glasses over them? I wear prescription glasses and I also have a big head. I'm concerned that I'll have comfort issues with the Nvidia active shutter glasses.
In addition to regular polarized glasses, the FPR monitors come with clip-on's for people who wear glasses. You can even get prescription glasses made with the correct FPR polarization. This seems like a big win for FPR and has me leaning that way despite the lower resolution, narrow viewing angles, and lower refresh rate.
I don't get the chance to game often but when free time does come up it's usually a multi-hour block. I don't want to end up with a 3D solution that's uncomfortable after an hour or two of use.
One other thing, I read that the Nvidia shutter glasses do not work when tilted 90 degree on their side. Is that true?
