The cheaper version of the 580 GTX is out, the 570. There are lots of reviews linked from engadget. Looks like the performance of the 480 for a much lower price. I'm gonna get me one to go with my new Acer H5360 projector! 3D Vision here I come.

Because of the room size I am setup in, I'm thinking of making my own 70" screen from foam board with Behr SilverScreen paint. Got the idea from AVS forums.

thats cool, Im using silver right now, its fabric, but I can see the texture :( plus it isnt too bright either.. But I have plans going 5-10x gain already.
I'll sacrifice everything else for brightness ( focus will be off because of curved screen).
