Newest Mistubishi DLP *not* Nvidia 3d vision ready? Listed as 60Hz but 3d ready (model WD-60638)
On nvidia's 3d vision webpage it mentions requiring 120Hz to view 3d. However on the bestbuy.com website it lists this *NEW* model as 60Hz. This TV is 3d ready so is there a difference between 3d for bluray movies and 3d gaming? On the specs page for the tv from the mitsubishi website it states :

*TV and some PC displays have standard overscan... In order to display 3D images Mitsubishi 3D Ready DLP Home Cinema TVs require the use of a 3D source device coupled with the Mitsubishi 3D adapter or other source devices that support checkerboard display formats for display of 3D games, 3D broadcasts from terrestrial/cable/satellite and 3D Blu-Ray disc content. In all cases an emitter and matching 3D active shutter glasses or DLP Link active shutter glasses are required in order to view 3D content.

Inexplicably there is no mention of the refresh rate of this newest TV although it does not list Smooth120 as one of its features. I find it odd that Mitsubishi would also release new TVs that are not compatible considering they partnered with Nvidia specifically to support their 3d vision on their DLPs.

that tv is the same as the ones that have been coming out since 07. it should work just fine- look at the link above. its actually IMO the best large screen solution available today. it is 60 hrz. the only difference for the 2010 models is the addition of side by side firmware and a promise to upgrade to HDMI 1.4a compatible firmware so you dont have to buy Mits adaptor kit for 3d tv and ps3 3d or 3d blue ray. does not make any difference for pc gaming on 3d vision.

yes they all have over scan. but the nvidia drivers have a utility that allows you to compensate for overscan. you reduce the resolution. the timings are still 1080p but the back end is adjusted to match what you see on the screen. mine runs at 1023x1824 for example.

The 3D-DLPs work different than the 120Hz LCDs. In this case 60Hz is fine (as in a 60Hz input). In 3D mode the screen actually flickers at 120Hz (60Hz per eye) but it works different from a true 120Hz screen. Just make sure the model number is on Nvidia's officially supported list (linked in the post above). You may run into problems if it is not officially supported.

On sale today! I want one of these but I just can't pull the trigger. I don't think this tv will cut if for watching regular tv but for gaming in 3D vision it looks awesome!
