currently have an acer 24inch monitor and is working well with 3D games but as regards movies it is too small so next Monday am planning to get an Optoma 3D projector....what differences should I expect ?

My Acer projector does not ghost at all (as far as i can see), most certainly none of that top/bottom ghosting you get with lcd panels, but you will perceive the colour wheel effect in fast movement scenes where there is red-to-blue-to-green blur around the edges of screen objects and actors. It most certainly is not off putting though and you do have to go looking for it :). I've also noticed the screen is a little softer compared to the lcd projectors at work, though that could be distance related i'm not sure.

thanks..I hope to get a good quality 3d image with my optoma EW536 compared to my ACER GD245HQ

Rainbow:

More apparent at 60hz, not many ppl can see it on 120hz stuff. In fact you shouldn't either.

In fact you can get used to 60hz rainbow as well, I dont see it for example.

Otherwise, expect better colors, expect better motion resolution, and expect to work a lot , or fork out some money for decent screen, cuz this pj worths the effort.

Also make friends with nvidia user control's 4x AA multisampling toggle.

I already have an Optoma HD65 so have already a good REFLECTA screen :)

my worries is to make the new EW-536 to work with the Acer`s inf file :) than its up to total media theater to play

120hz will be a lot dimmer than 60hz. You'll want the extra brightness especially after 1000 hours ( drops by 30%). What is the gain rating of your screen do you have a link.

Good luck with the inf, its early to argue about that.

well I think it is a High-quality screen with 1.2 gain.

Moreover the projector is 2800Lumens so should be bright enough I presume even though I think at 120Hz it drops to 800 something.

As regards the inf file well the EW536 is similar to the Pro350W and the HD66 and even on Nvidia`s recommended projectors I see listed the HS536 which is similar too (only colour differ) so I presume it should be a problem...at least I hope so since already spent several Euros on the Acer monitor which I will use only for 3D gaming :)

I obtained silverscreen material for ~ 100 eur today including postage, gain 2+ . Will try tomorrow.
