Will a Sony XBR7 with 240hz work?
Before I buy the kit, I have a quick quesiton I'm hoping can be answered. Of the two LCD computer monitors I own, one only goes to 60hz, the other only 75hz. But I just bought a Sony 52" XBR7 LCD TV with 240hz, and was curious if it would work well, if at all, if I hooked it up to my computer. From what I read on the forums here, it sounds like 240hz would be quite desierable, but I'm still being cautious. It's not listed as a compatible TV, but I'm not sure if they spent the time to list any and all TV/Monitors that would be compatible, or if what they listed is currently all the will work. I hope that my TV would be able to display 3D. My computer specs are: AMD 64 Athlon X2 6400+ ~ GeForce 8800 GTS 640 MB (x2) ~ 8GB DDR2 800Mhz ~ Vista x64. I could use the DVi to HDMI cable that comes with the kit, and I bought a Y cable for audio, would I be ready to buy the 3D kit?

That's really just a 60 hz TV with some fake interpolated bullcrap added in, sorry to say.

What makes you think it wouldn't work? Because nVidia doesn't have it listed as supported? Do explain...

If you take a look at these pages

infosyncworld.com/news/n/9727.html

crunchgear.com/2008/09/03/sony-announces-240hz-bravia-kdl-52xbr7-lcd-tv-skinny-bravia-klv-40zx1m/

You can see that, this LCD actually has 240 Hz Refresh Rate.

And I think that this LCD will work as I saw that, any monitor with 120+Hz refresh rate will work.

These LCD t.v.'s hdmi port's can't support true 120 hz bandwidth. This is the same concept as a 1080P upconversion dvd player. It isn't true 1080P it's converted up with more lines. In order to play with 3d Vision you must have a true 120 HZ bandwidth signal going from your DVI to your T.V.]

3d Dlp t.v.'s have true 120 HZ always as long as the device you are using can support it, same as the 2 LCD monitors that they sell with the bundle. Sorry buddy

Also, when new LCD T.V's can support this technology (Which they will soon), it will say 3d Ready or something like that
