What do I need to play in S-3D? I can't find any MODERN info on the web
Does anyone know anything about stereo gaming? I have a standard LCD monitor from Sony but it doesn't support stereoscopic 3D.
I want to know if I must buy a stereoscopic Zalman monitor to play games in 3D, or can I just buy 3D glasses and use my standard LCD monitor?
I'm surprised by the lack of information I can find about stereo gaming.
I went on Nvidia's webpage on Stereo gaming and they don't even tell you what you need exactly to run games in Stereo-3D!
I also went on a different website that had general information on what stereo gaming is and what you need for it, but then I checked the date of the webpage... 2005. The information might be obsolete.

MTBS3D.com has some very good guides for new users and a ton of information on the forums.
Basically, there are many levels. The lowest and cheapest being a non 8XXX nVidia card and cheap red/blue glasses in winXP or 8XXX nVidia card and Vista.
If you like that, you might want to invest in a 3D monitor or other technologies which suite your need.
There are many ways each having many advantages and some disadvantages. I guess the hardest part is identifying what you need and asking about it. We are here to help if you are genuinely interested :-)

Shutter glasses don't work too well with LCD screens. There is a company out there whose name rhymes with three-dimensional, and they make some wild claims about the products they sell. All I know is that I own 2 different LCD screens and shutterglasses do not work with either. If you want to game in 3d and don't have a CRT monitor then it will be a little more expensive.
The Zalman Trimon is one solution, I am actually planning on getting one myself. But please note that the new Nvidia Stereo 3D driver for the Zalman is only for Vista. Although the Zalman can still work under XP, the compatibility may be limited. Another option is the iz3D monitor, which has better compatibility than the Zalman (and its slightly cheaper). Both are 22" widescreen monitors. There are a few other options, if you go to MTBS3D.com there is a lot more information. None of the solutions are perfect, so you must find what device that will work for you.

I suggest you forget about monitors and get a DLP projector instead. Once you experience a large screen projected on the wall, there's no turning back to monitors. It is rather cheap also. Look up the list of stereo 3d DLP compatible projectors.
A great site, where I found all the information I needed of how to set up a stereo 3d projection system is www.3dflightsim.com
The main obstacle is nVidia's lack of support for shutterglasses in their latest stereoscopic drivers, and of course, windows vista. We are having to buy older cards and use windows xp to get the desired results..
