Compatibility with 120Hz LCD TVs
Lots of LCD TVs are now advertised as being 120Hz. Will some or all of them work with GeForce 3D Vision?

For example, I have a Sony KDL-52XBR4, and a quad-CPU PC with an 8800GT. Will the TV work for 3D?

Has somebody generated a list of LCD TVs known to be compatible or incompatible?

THANKS TO ALL WHO REPLY!

[i]3D Vision-Ready LCDs – such as the Samsung SyncMaster 2233Z and ViewSonic® FuHzion™ VX2265wm accept a 120 Hz input and display at 120 Hz refresh rate . There are LCD HDTVs that are on the market display at 120 Hz refresh rate, but only accept a 60 Hz input signal over HDMI or dual-link DVI. These type of displays use framerate conversion or backlight flashing to convert 60 Hz signals into 120 Hz.

Both quality are about the same, so it comes down to which bezel design you like better.

Thanks, Andrew. Yes, I had already read the KB, but was beguiled by the long list of LCD TVs claiming to be "120 Hz". Without giving away any trade secrets, is NVIDIA at least working with some leading brands like Sony or Samsung to get true 120Hz PC input enabled? I think 3D game playing on a really big LCD screen would be awesome, but I dislike the shortcomings of the rear projection TVs and DLP projectors.

I've read many articles saying the the movie industry is shifting to new differentiators like 3D to continue to attract audiences. Wouldn't it make sense that the home display industry would follow suit?

Anyway, good luck and keep up the great work.

I'd love to give you all our secrets, but I cant :(

Suffice to say we definitely want more 120 hz displays on the market.

What was used at CES? The larger screen size is what sold me. I thought it was LCD but perhaps DLP?

The big screen at CES was a 72" Mitsubishi DLP.

Well hot dog...It sure looked great. I hope larger LCD's become available soon....
