3D Vision compatible LCD TV? Time to go TV Shopping...
Starting to shop around for a TV again. I tossed around the idea of getting a projector, but the notion of dealing with a TV Tuner and whether or not I'd need a projector screen in my apartment makes me want to just take the safe route and get a TV. Though I don't have my heart set on it, it would be nice to run my computer display through the TV and use the 3D Vision glasses. So, what TV's work with 3D Vision? I see

lists some Mitsubishi tv's, but what about every other TV out there that is labeled as "3D Ready?" Do they work? I looked at one at

It says that you need "active shutter 3D glasses designed to work with this HDTV."

Price-wise, $1,000 would be nice, but I'd probably go as high as $1,500.

Every 3D ready HDTV that has a VESA plug for an external 3D IR emitter AND supports the checkerboard format would be compatible with 3D vision.
That are the Mitsubishi DLPs and some older Samsung 3D ready Plasmas.

As far as I know, none of the new 3D ready models from Samsung, Sony and Panasonic meet both demands, that is why nVidia is developing the 3D play software for frame packed 3D formats as defined in the HDMI 1.4 spec.
This will most probably be 720p @ 60Hz and 1080p @ 24Hz (which may be to less for many gamers).

the dlp has the best price/performance/size ratio. works perfect with 3d vision as a 3d HTPC monitor.
the dlp has the best price/performance/size ratio. works perfect with 3d vision as a 3d HTPC monitor.

System:

Intel I7 920 overclocked to 4ghz

Asus Rampage Extreme II

2 Ge-force 480 in SLI

GTX 295 PhysX Card

12gb ddr3 2000mhz ram

Intel SSD in RAID 0

BR RW

1000w Sony surround sound

NVIDIA 3D Vision



3d displays tested:



Mitsubishi 65" DLP 3d HDTV (good old 1080p checkerboard since 2007!!!)

Panasonic VT25 (nice 2d but I returned it due to cross talk)

Acer H5360 720p on 130" screen (the best 3d)

23" Acer LCD monitor (horrible cross talk- sold it)

Samsung 65D8000
