I dont understand. If you could inform me of these 3d glasses I would be in your debt kind sir.
 
You know, thoses glasses that transform your image in 3d, giving it some perspective.
 
ive heard of those, though have yet to try them out. no where around me carries them in store. id have to order 1 from newegg or tiger in order to test 1, though my friend thats away at a diffrent college than me has a pair and says they make his games look LEET.... so maybe ill give it a try. they are only like 60 bucks or so.
 
they used to come with some geforce 3 cards, and were hyped a lot around the geforce 2 days. I borrowed my friends pair and used it on my geforce 4 ti 4600 a few years back and it was more a novelty than anything else.

They effectively cut your refresh rate in half by turning off the vision in one eye then the next every frame alternating between the two. The 3d effect is achieved by slightly moving the image to one side while viewed out of one eye.

Overall it gives u a headache, makes lights in games overly bright, and for the most part is dissorienting. Cool for about 5 min then you'll feel sick.
 
true, but in order to have 120hz id have to game at 1024 or less, even with my pretty decent 22" crt, and for lcd's it doesnt work at all
 
Does the brand really matter? I have a pair and all it really does is alternate the opaqueness between the two lenses in sync with the v-pin. I honestly don't see how you could improve on that. :confused:

They aren't hyped these days coz the feature is pretty much standard now.

If you don't want to spend big bucks but have an nVidia card, the stereo drivers also supports anaglyph mode that you can use with those red/green glasses :)
 
the ones from e-dimension are suppost to work with lcd monitors, from what i hear and read you have to tweek the hell out of them to get a good effect and fun you refresh rate at around 60, the shutter glasses shouldn't give you a headach, but thoes darn red and blue ones will. Oh and they don't work to well with ATI cards, they don't make the stero drivers
 
reBirth :D

if u have a nice 21" crt, go with eDimensional

if u have an nvidea card, then u can play any game with anaglyph (red/blue) glasses

Yeah, I got one of those back in the days when Hexen was cutting-edge, lol. My 3D glasses plugged into the serial port, of all places. I probably still have it floating around somewhere...
